Risk Management Group (PRO)

What is the risk management group?

This is a temporary group in which qualified analyst accounts could be moved into dependant on the trading style and approach to risk on the account, (see below 4 qualifying categories)

What is the leverage reduction?

Up to 1:30 leverage

In line with a leverage reduction, the maximum lot exposure on pro accounts is also reduced on the risk management group

During the account review at the withdrawal stage, should any violations of this rule be identified, we adhere to a rigorous procedure.

Upon the initial instance of violating this rule, Performance bonus acquired through lot sizes exceeding the permissible limit will not be eligible for withdrawal.

Upon the second instance of violating this rule, This will lead to the performance bonus being forfeited and the analysis account being deactivated.

Please note that violations are assessed per position, not per trade idea. Therefore, a sequence of trades can result in multiple violations of this rule. For example, if the maximum lot limit for an account is 10 lots, a single trade of 11 lots followed by another trade of 1 lot, while the first trade remains open, will result in two breach counts and the account's closure.

During the assessment completion review & performance fee request, our risk team reviews the full trading history of each account.

​Qualifying Categories:

· Consistently losing or risking 3.5-5% in a single trade or sequence of trades closed around the same time.

· All or nothing style approach

· Excessive max lot / max margin usage

· Gambling through high-impact news (both during assessment & soft breach on qualified accounts)

· Account rolling* (full risk on assessment or qualified accounts to either pass or fail &/or large quantity of accounts passing & failing within a short timeframe. Previous failed accounts are taken into consideration)

* Account rolling: May also lead to a 30-day pause of services to help prevent clients from consistently mistreating our assessment and qualified accounts through not taking a serious approach to risk management and longevity of the account)

Can an account be moved back to Pro leverage?

Yes! After two successful performance fee payouts, your account becomes eligible for a review to return to Pro leverage (up to 1:100).*

Please note that this is not an automatic process, but a discretionary review conducted by our Risk team. If you meet the criteria below, you may request the review by contacting [email protected]:

• Initial Starting Balance: The account must be at its original starting balance.**

• No Open Positions: All trades must be closed at the time of the request.

Please allow up to 48 hours from the time of your request for a response to be communicated.

Kindly note that each review request applies only to the specific account submitted. If you manage multiple accounts, a separate request must be submitted for each one.

* For On-Demand payout type, we require 30 calendar days of trading data. If two successful performance fee payouts occur in less than 30 days, the review still cannot be conducted

** One accounts are not required to follow this rule due to their trailing maximum drawdown

Can an account be scaled or merged?
