Daily Drawdown: Relative Drawdown based on the Balance/Equity at the start of the day (platform time).

We currently do not allow news trading.

Yes, our program allows for weekend and overnight holding of trades.

This can be assessed on a case-by-case basis. If you account has been suspended, you will receive a member discount for future Evaluations.
If you breach the consistency rules, you will not lose your Funded Account – we would only remove the specific trades from the profit/restart the account.

Yes, all types of EAs are allowed at NFF.

Yes, hedging is allowed, however, using multiple accounts to hedge entries between them will be considered as a violation of rules. This includes hedging between clients.
Hedging your own account to protect a position for example, is completely allowed. Hedging two different accounts/individuals, taking opposite positions in each to bypass the rules, is not allowed.

Yes, we work with consistency-based rules. These rules ensure that we are working with legitimate traders who apply a consistent risk management and strategy to their accounts. As an institution, we must apply this rule to

filter the most consistent traders and avoid people who are purely gambling.

Yes, each trader is responsible for his/her own account credentials – sharing the details with third parties is outside of out control and is not permitted. Sharing your funded account credentials may lead to having the account suspended.
For the full list of rules, please refer to the Schedule of Assessment.

10 days per evaluation phase

HFT bots do not work nor are allowed in the funded stage.

You will not lose your account. Our risk team will only remove the profits from the amount being withdrawn and if these are greater than your PnL, your account will be reset to its original balance to give you a second chance.

Yes, only between your personal accounts. We use cutting edge technology for risk management and if you have a large proportion of trades deemed as copy, this is an infringement of our rules.

Our consistency rule is only enforced in the funded stage and it is assessed at the time of withdrawal:
33% consistency rule: a single trade should not represent more than 33% of the profit being requested. This is to avoid traders going “all in” before news or gambling, rather than applying sound risk management. This also assists us in managing risk as a company and building a more sustainable risk modelling long term.
This is also only being enforced in the funded stage. We basically work with volume bands (also for risk management purposes and consistency). Say, if a trader trades with lot sizes of 2 and 4 lots on gold for the month, let’s assume a 3 lot average size per trade and then one day before the payroll (or another situation) he places a single trade with 10 lots, this would be voided from the results as it represents more than 200% of the average volume for the period. The same applies if it is more than 75% below the average lot size
Example (values for illustration purposes only):

Average lot size: 3 lots per trade Upper limit: 6 lots per trade Lower limit: 0.75 lots per trade
Average= total lots traded divided by total number of trades Upper range= average x2
Lower range= average x0.25
Any trades within that range are perfectly fine. Note trades are aggregated when placed within 60-second window into one position for both profit and volume consistency
We’ve designed the rules to create a balance between offering a very competitive challenge but also making sure the Prop is sustainable and will remain in the market long term. If you have trades outside of the

consistency range, you would not lose your account – only those specific trades would be removed and the remaining amount processed to you
Some people don’t quite agree with it and others actually said they became better traders by having these rules as it forces them to stick to their trading plan rather than making impulsive decisions

Third party account management is not allowed – each trades must trade his/her own accounts.

Duplicated IPs between different users in the funded account is a breach of our rules.

You do not need to notify us about IP changes. We understand you may use mobile, VPS and travel from time to time. Having different IPs is not an issue.

Using the same mobile phone/computer to access accounts from different people is seen as a major red flag, given each person should be trading his/her own account. Please ensure you are not sharing your funded credentials with anyone.
