Trading Days, Time Limits & Inactivity Rules

Minimum Number of Trading Days per Challenge Type

Rapid Challenge ⚡

In Phase 1, traders must trade on a minimum of 4 separate days. In the SF Trader Stage, participants are required to trade on at least 4 days as well, bringing the total minimum to 8 trading days.

This helps evaluate their risk management skills and ensures consistency in performance. Meeting this objective demonstrates steady profit generation and prevents passing the phase with just one lucky trade.

Regular Challenge

In Phase 1, traders must complete at least 4 trading days. This is followed by another 4 trading days in Phase 2, and an additional 4 trading days once they reach the SF Trader Stage.

Altogether, this adds up to a total of 12 minimum trading days, helping confirm that a trader’s results are built on consistent activity.

Instant Account Challenge 💸

In this challenge, traders are only required to complete a total of 8 trading days, since it consists solely of the SF Trader Stage.

Unlike multi-phase challenges that spread trading day requirements across different stages, this structure simplifies the process by focusing exclusively on live trading performance.
