What is weekend holding in a prop firm challenge?

Weekend holding means traders can keep positions open from Friday market close through to Sunday/Monday open without breaching challenge rules.

Why do some firms ban weekend holding?

Weekend gap risk is a concern for firms — markets can open significantly higher or lower on Monday, creating losses that exceed drawdown limits.

Do weekend holding permissions affect leverage?

Some firms reduce leverage or adjust margin requirements for positions held over the weekend. Check the specific firm's rules.
