Why Trading Concentration on a Single Asset is not Allowed

Modified on Wed, 13 Aug at 9:51 AM

If a trader’s profits are derived entirely or predominantly from one single asset, this will trigger a review by our Trade Ethics Team.

  • This applies to both the Challenge and Funded stages.

  • In some cases, the account may pass initially, but later be rejected or closed if it is determined that all gains were generated solely from trading one instrument (e.g., only Gold (XAU/USD), only BTC/USD, etc.).

  • Our objective is to ensure traders have the skill and adaptability to trade across various asset classes, not rely solely on a single market.

  • If this concentrated trading style is detected and deemed non-compliant with our expectations, the account may be closed at any time, and no further payouts will be processed.


If more than 50% of your total profits in either the Challenge or Funded stage come from one single asset, your account will be flagged for review by our Trade Ethics Team.


  • This applies whether you are in the Challenge phase or have already reached the Funded stage.

  • While some accounts may initially pass, they can later be rejected or closed if it is determined that a disproportionate amount of profits (over 50%) were generated from trading only one instrument (e.g., only Gold (XAU/USD), only BTC/USD, etc.).


Example:

If a trader has a $10,000 account and makes a total profit of $1,000, but more than $500 of that profit (over 50%) comes from trading only XAU/USD (Gold), this would be considered excessive concentration. In such cases, the challenge may not be passed, or if already funded, the withdrawals will be canceled and account may be closed for violating this rule.
