Finotive Funding Prop Firm Details

Consistency Rules

Finotive Pro Accounts Only:

• After 30 days of funding, traders must maintain weekly trade quantity and volume within ±25% of their average during the challenge phase and first 30 days of funding.

  Example: If a trader averaged 10 trades and 10 lots on Forex and Metals during the challenge, they must maintain between 7–12 trades and 7.5–12.5 lots each week.

Finotive Pro Accounts Only:

• Quarterly Profit Target: Traders must achieve a 5% total profit (including payouts and unrealized profits) every 90 days.

  (Breach of consistency or quarterly profit targets will result in downgrade to a Standard Funded Account with no salary or upgraded profit split.)

Instant Funding Programs:

• 60% best trade rule applies.

General Trading Rules

Notional Volume:

• The Notional Volume Limit controls the maximum permitted open notional exposure for the account. It is separate from platform leverage, margin usage, and buying power. https://help.finotivefunding.com/en/articles/927-what-are-the-notional-volume-limits

Floating Drawdown

• Instant Funding: On Instant Funding accounts, the Floating Drawdown threshold is 1.5% of the Initial Account Balance. A Dashboard or platform reminder may appear at 1.0%. The first confirmed Floating Drawdown breach results in a Formal Warning only. From the second confirmed breach onward, each separate qualifying event results in one Strike and Reward Payment reduction to 10% for the relevant Payout Cycle.

• Challenge and Pro evaluation phases: During Challenge and Pro Challenge phases, the Floating Drawdown threshold is 2.0% of the Initial Account Balance. Reaching the threshold does not result in a real-time alert, email alert, platform notification, soft warning, Strike, Account Reset, Reward Payment reduction, or account closure. Relevant findings may be included in the Challenge Phase Progression Report.

• Challenge and Pro funded phase: Once a Challenge or Pro account reaches Simulated Funded Status, the 2.0% Floating Drawdown threshold is enforced. A reminder may appear at 1.5%. A confirmed breach results in one Strike and Reward Payment reduction to 10% for the relevant Payout Cycle. Only one Strike may be issued per trade and instrument combination. Five cumulative Strikes result in permanent account closure.

Loss-chasing and gambling-style trading behavior is prohibited

• This refers to repeatedly engaging in one-directional or impulsive trading aimed at recovering prior losses, including immediately re-entering positions in the same instrument and direction after a losing trade

Scalping Rule:

• Short-duration trading is not automatically prohibited. Prohibited scalping is identified by Finotive thresholds. A scalping condition is identified where 40% or more of closed trades in a Payout Cycle have a holding time of 120 seconds or less, or 20% or more of total positive realised profit in the Payout Cycle is generated from trades held for 120 seconds or less.

High Frequency Trading:

• The specific High-Frequency Trading rule applies to Instant Funding Standard and Instant Funding Lite only. HFT is prohibited where 30% or more of closed trades have a holding time of less than 60 seconds, with at least 10 closed trades required before assessment, or five or more trades are opened within any 10-second interval.

Excessive One-Sided Position Concentration:

• Excessive One-Sided Position Concentration is identified where the trader has at least 10 closed trades in a Payout Cycle and either 70% or more of closed trades are on the same symbol and in the same direction, or 70% or more of total exposure is on the same symbol and in the same direction.

What is Liquidity Abuse:

• Liquidity Abuse means systematically targeting low-liquidity conditions, widened spreads, or execution inefficiencies. A condition may be identified where at least 20% of total realised profit in a review period or Payout Cycle is generated from trades opened and closed within the applicable low-liquidity window.

Low-liquidity trading and spread exploitation is prohibited

• This refers to the systematic execution of trades during low-liquidity market conditions with the intent to benefit from widened spreads, delayed order execution, or sharp price movements. A breach occurs when trades are consistently opened or closed between 22:00 and 02:00 UTC, and more than 20% of total profit is generated during this time window.

  Use of VPNs, iCloud Private Relay, proxies, remote desktops, anonymisers, IP masking, rapidly changing IPs, or geographically inconsistent connections may lead to failed verification, account closure, Reward Payment rejection, and refund refusal.

Weekend holding: Evaluation based programs

• Allowed | Instant Standard & Instant Lite: Not Allowed without add-on

Hedging

• Hedging between multiple accounts is prohibited.

High-frequency stacking (including correlated instruments)

News straddling is prohibited.

• This means placing straddled, offsetting, or equivalent hedged exposure on the same or correlated instruments within 15 minutes before or after Red or Amber events, earnings events, or geopolitical events where the purpose is to capture volatility rather than express a genuine directional view.

Accounts inactive for 30 consecutive days may be closed without refund
