Complete trading conditions and guidelines for Orbit Markets' funded trading programs
Phase 1: Trader must achieve 6% profit on their account balance without breaching any drawdown or risk limits.
Phase 2: Trader must achieve an additional 4% profit under the same conditions.
Once both phases are completed successfully, the trader qualifies for a funded live account.
Traders must trade for at least 5 separate trading days in each phase to ensure consistency.
A minimum of 10 trades must be completed before an evaluation phase is considered valid.
"One-trade passes" are not accepted — traders must demonstrate consistency over multiple trades.
Daily Drawdown Limit: Maximum daily loss is 4% of the account balance (calculated from the starting equity of each trading day).
Maximum Drawdown (Equity Loss Limit): At no point can the account exceed a 9% overall drawdown from the initial balance or highest equity peak.
Per Trade Risk Limit: No single trade may risk more than 1% of account equity including stop-loss.
Leverage Cap: Traders may use a maximum of 1:50 leverage on forex pairs; lower limits may apply to highly volatile instruments such as cryptocurrencies.
Maximum Risk Per Trade: Do not risk more than 1–2% of total account balance on a single trade. Example: On a $10,000 account, max loss per trade = $100–$200.
Fixed SL Placement: SL must be set within 60 seconds after entering a trade. No funded account trade is valid without a stop-loss within this timeframe.
No SL Adjustment to Increase Risk: You may only move SL in profit direction (to lock gains). You may never widen SL once a trade is live.
Important Note:
This rule applies only to funded accounts. All trades must have a stop-loss set within 60 seconds of execution. Moving stop-loss to increase risk will result in immediate account termination.
Allowed order types: Market Orders, Limit Orders, Stop Loss, Take Profit.
All open trades must be placed with a stop-loss to protect capital.
Overnight holding and weekend holding are permitted, provided risk limits are respected.
A maximum of 3 open trades at the same time is allowed unless the trader has received prior approval.
Traders must manage position sizing responsibly. Overexposure to a single instrument or correlated assets is not allowed.
Expert Advisors (EAs), trading bots, and algorithmic strategies are allowed.
The trader is fully responsible for the performance and risk of their automation.
Any malfunction or runaway trades caused by an EA that result in a rule violation will not be excused.
Martingale / Grid with no limits – scaling lot sizes after losses or using unlimited grid strategies.
Hedging the same instrument in both directions – opening buy and sell positions on the same pair/instrument to manipulate exposure.
Arbitrage or latency exploits – taking advantage of data feed delays, price discrepancies, or server lag.
Excessive over-leveraging – opening oversized trades or multiple high-risk positions that exceed exposure guidelines.
Wash trading / self-trading – opening and closing trades purely to generate volume or to manipulate metrics.
Signal copying / mirroring without approval – linking accounts to external signal services to bypass genuine trading effort.
News gambling – placing oversized trades just before high-impact news events to exploit volatility without risk control.
Slippage / order manipulation – intentionally exploiting execution systems, spoofing orders, or manipulating stop/limit orders.
Multiple account abuse – trading multiple funded accounts in a way that manipulates risk or creates unfair advantage.
Important Note:
Violations of these rules will lead to immediate termination of the account.
Traders retain 80% of profits on their first payout.
Consistent and profitable traders can increase their share up to 90% over time.
Payouts are processed within 24–48 hours of request.
Minimum withdrawal amounts may apply depending on account type.
Breaching any drawdown, risk, or strategy rule will result in instant failure of the evaluation or funded account.
Minor violations may be eligible for a paid reset, but severe breaches (such as cheating, arbitrage, or manipulation) will result in permanent disqualification.
No refunds are issued for failed evaluations.
Now that you understand our rules, you're ready to begin your funded trading journey with Orbit Markets.
