At reset take the higher of balance or equity and subtract a fixed % of initial balance. Resets 5pm EST as stated; daylight saving behaviour not stated, so no fixed UTC hour.
  • Limits are stated once per program, not per phase; funded assumed the same as the page gives no separate funded figure.
  • Third-party copiers allowed between accounts legally owned by you, including your external accounts.
  • Minimum hold 2 minutes (tick scalping rule).
  • Overnight and weekend holds allowed.
  • Funded: news restricted 5 minutes either side of high-impact events, plus FOMC.
  • Other leverage: indices and commodities 1:20 or 1:10, crypto 1:2.
  • Trailing follows the highest closed balance and locks at starting balance once the account is up by the drawdown amount; then a fixed 1% withdrawal buffer applies.
  • Target 10% if bought before 20 Aug.
  • Trading day needs at least 0.5% profit.
  • Guardian Shield (funded): open PnL at 2% auto-closes trades. First hit cuts split to 50% permanently, second hit is a permanent breach.

Couldn't confirm: Sizes are the firm-wide list; which sizes this model sells is not confirmed.; Funded minimum days wording is ambiguous.
