FAQ
How often can I scale my account?
For Standard, Royal, Knight, and Dragon challenges, scaling opportunities are available every three months if performance criteria are met. For the Rapid challenge, scaling is based on withdrawal amounts exceeding 10% of the initial balance, with no specific time frame.
Does scaling affect my trading conditions or rules?
While the basic trading rules remain the same, scaled accounts may have adjusted risk parameters, such as scalable daily and total loss limits. Additionally, you’ll need to adapt your position sizing to the larger account balance. Review the updated terms provided with each scaling offer for specific changes.
What happens if I don't meet the performance criteria for scaling?
If you don’t meet the performance criteria for scaling, you’ll continue trading with your current account size. There’s no penalty for not qualifying for scaling, and you’ll have future opportunities to scale as long as you maintain profitable trading and adhere to the rules. Focus on consistent performance and risk management to improve your chances of scaling in the future.
