WHAT IS THE DAILY DRAWDOWN RULE FOR INSTANT ACCOUNT?

STATIC DAILY DRAWDOWN– 4%: The Static Daily Drawdown in the Instant Elite Funding program is fixed based on the starting equity of the trading day.

It does NOT move, trail, or adjust during the day regardless of unrealised profit.

·    Calculated on equity at 00:00 server time

·    Limit = 4% of starting-day equity

·    Includes both floating and closed losses

·    If equity touches or falls below the daily limit → Account Breach

Example 1 – Normal Day Calculation

·    Starting Day Equity: $10,000

·    Daily Loss Limit (4%): $400

·    Breach Level: $9,600

If your equity drops to $9,599 including floating loss → Account breached

Example 2 – Profitable Yesterday, Still Static Today

·    Yesterday you closed at $11,200,

·    But today’s starting equity is still $11,200

·    4% Daily Loss Limit = $448

·    Breach Level: $10,752

Even if you reach high profits during the day (e.g., $12,000 floating), the daily limit does not increase — it remains static at $448.

WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM DRAW DOWN RULE FOR INSTANT ACCOUNT?

Trailing Maximum Drawdown – 6.5%: The Trailing Maximum Drawdown in the Instant Elite Funding program moves upward as the account reaches a new equity high. It always trails 6.5% behind the highest recorded equity value.

·    Starts from the initial balance

·    Trails upward as equity increases

·    Never trails downward

·    If the equity touches the trailing limit → Account Breach

Example 1 – With No Profit Increase

·   Initial Balance: $10,000

·   Max Drawdown (6.5%): $650

·   Trailing Breach Level: $9,350

If equity falls to $9,349 at any time — even floating — account is breached.

Example 2 – Trailing Up After Profits

·    Initial Balance: $10,000

·    You grow equity to $12,000

·    New Highest Equity: $12,000

·    Trailing Drawdown Level = $12,000 – 6.5% = $12,000 – $780 = $11,220


Now your breach level is no longer $9,350 → it has moved up to $11,220.


If equity drops to $11,219, the account is breached.

WHAT IS THE STOP-LOSS RULE FOR INSTANT ACCOUNT?

Instant Elite Funding – Stop-Loss Compliance Rule

Mandatory Stop-Loss Requirement

Every trader in the Instant Elite Funding program is required to place a Stop-Loss (SL) on every trade immediately after opening a position.

1-Minute SL Placement Condition

·   A Stop-Loss must be added within 1 minute (60 seconds) after a trade is executed.

·   This applies to all trading instruments.

·   Trades without an SL after 1 minute are considered non-compliant.

System Monitoring

·    As soon as a position opens, a 60-second timer begins.
If no SL is attached within the 1-minute window, the system will record the trade as a violation of the Stop-Loss Rule.

Example 1 – Compliant

·    Trade opened: 10:00:05

Stop-Loss added: 10:00:45


✔ Compliant (SL added within 60 seconds)

Example 2 – Non-Compliant

·    Trade opened: 14:32:10

·    Stop-Loss added: 14:33:20


✘ Non-Compliant (SL added after the 1-minute limit)


📌 NOTE

A. SL integrity

Once a stop-loss is placed, it must not be:

·    removed

·    deleted and re-added to bypass the rule

B. Applies to all order types

·    Market orders

·    Limit orders

Pending orders (SL must be placed within 1 minute of activation)

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDED LOT SIZE RESTRICTION RULE ?

Instant Elite Funding – Lot Size Restriction Rule

To ensure controlled risk and consistent trading behavior, Instant Elite Funding enforces strict maximum lot size limits on all Instant Funding account packages.
These limits apply to
all instruments, unless otherwise specified.

1. Package Lot Limits


$2,000 Instant Elite Account

·    Maximum Allowed Lot Size: 0.2 lots

·    Total exposure at any moment must not exceed 0.2 lots combined across all open positions.


$4,000 Instant Elite Account

·    Maximum Allowed Lot Size: 0.3 lots

Total combined open exposure cannot exceed 0.3 lots.

$6,000 Instant Elite Account

·     Maximum Allowed Lot Size: 0.4 lots

·    Total open positions must not surpass 0.4 lots at any time.

2. Rule Details:

A. Applies to Total Exposure

The limit is based on combined open lots, not per position.

Example:
On a $2,000 account (max 0.2 lots):

·    0.1 lot + 0.1 lot = 0.2 lots total → Allowed

·    0.20 lots + 0.20 lots = 0.40 lots total → Not allowed

B. Applies to All Order Types

·    Market orders

·    Limit orders

·    Pending orders that activate

 Once activated, the exposure counts toward the limit.

3. Examples

Example 1 – Compliant (4K account)

Account size: $4,000
Lot limit:
0.3 lots
Trader opens:

·    0.2 lots XAUUSD

·    0.1 lot EURUSD
Total =
0.3 lots → ✔ Allowed

Example 2 – Non-Compliant (6K account)

Account size: $6,000
Lot limit:
0.4 lots
Trader opens:

·    0.3 lots XAUUSD

·    0.2 lots US30

·    0.1 lot EURUSD
Total =
0.6 lots → ✘ Not allowed (exceeds max)

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING NEWS TRADING RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – News Trading Rule

1. Prohibition of News Trading
Under the Instant Elite Funding program, news trading is strictly prohibited.
This rule applies to
all economic, financial, or geopolitical news events that can cause high volatility.

2. Scope of the Rule

·    News trading includes, but is not limited to:

o   Trading during major economic releases (e.g., NFP, CPI, interest rate announcements)

o   Trading within red-folder or high-impact news periods

o   Using calendar alerts or EA setups specifically designed to exploit news spikes

o   Trading during unexpected geopolitical events for speculative advantage

3.  Note:

·    Traders must avoid opening new trades during news releases.

·    Existing trades cannot be intentionally modified to capitalize on news.

·    Any detected news-trading activity is considered a violation of program rules.

4. Examples:

Example 1 – Violation

·    Stop-Loss widened intentionally to catch volatility
Violation – News trading is prohibited

Example 2 – Compliant

·    Trader closes positions before any major news release

Waits 30 minutes after news before opening a new trade
Compliant – Rule followed

WHAT ARE THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING TRADING DAYS?

Instant Elite Funding – Minimum Profitable Trading Days Rule

1. Rule Definition

To ensure that traders demonstrate consistent and responsible trading, the Instant Elite Funding program enforces the following minimum profitability requirement:

·    Traders must achieve at least 5 profitable trading days before they are eligible for any payout.

·    Each profitable trading day must generate at least 0.5% of the initial account balance in net profit.

·    This ensures that the trader is not only profitable but also consistent over time.

2. How It Works

·    Profitable trading days are calculated based on closed trades only.

·    Floating or unrealized profits do not count toward the 5-day requirement.

·    The 0.5% minimum ensures that profitability is meaningful and not negligible.

3. Examples

Example 1 – $2,000 Account

·   Minimum daily profit required: 0.5% of $2,000 = $10

·   Trader must have 5 days with at least $10 profit each before payout eligibility.

Example 2 – $6,000 Account

·    Minimum daily profit required: 0.5% of $6,000 = $30

·    Trader must have 5 days with at least $30 profit each before payout eligibility.

WHAT IS THE INSTANT MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM WITHDRAWAL RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – Minimum & Maximum Withdrawal Rule

1. Rule Definition

To maintain proper risk management and account stability, the Instant Elite Funding program enforces the following withdrawal rules:

·    Traders can withdraw profits only when they reach the minimum threshold.

·    Minimum withdrawal: 4% of the initial account balance.

·    Maximum withdrawal: 7% of the initial account balance per request.

·    If a trader’s profit exceeds 7% of the initial balance, the payout is capped at 7%, and any excess profit is forfeited/deducted.

·    This ensures gradual and controlled profit-taking while protecting the funded account.

2. How It Works

·    Withdrawal limits are calculated based on the initial funded account balance, not on current profit.

·    Any profit above the 7% maximum will be forfeited.

·    Traders can make multiple withdrawals, but each withdrawal must respect the 4%-7% limits.

3. Examples

Example 1 – $2,000 Account

·    Minimum withdrawal: 4% → $80

·    Maximum withdrawal: 7% → $140

·    Trader profit = $50 → ❌ Cannot withdraw

·    Trader profit = $100 → ✅ Can withdraw $100

·    Trader profit = $200 → ✅ Can withdraw $140 only; remaining $60 is forfeited

Example 2 – $6,000 Account

·    Minimum withdrawal: 4% → $240

·    Maximum withdrawal: 7% → $420

·    Trader profit = $220 → ❌ Cannot withdraw

·    Trader profit = $350 → ✅ Can withdraw $350

·    Trader profit = $500 → ✅ Can withdraw $420 only; remaining $80 is forfeited

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING PROFIT-SPLIT & PAYOUT RULE ?

Instant Elite Funding – Profit Split & Payout Duration Rule

1. Profit Split

The profit sharing model is designed to reward consistent traders while maintaining company sustainability:

Payout Number : 1st Payout
Client Profit % : 60%
Company Share %: 40%

Payout Number : 2nd Payout
Client Profit % : 65%
Company Share %: 35%

Payout Number : 3rd Payout
Client Profit % : 70%
Company Share %: 30%


Notes:

·    The first payout starts with a 60/40 split.

·    With each subsequent payout, the trader’s share increases gradually, reaching 70% from the 3rd payout onward, which then remains fixed.

·    Profit splits are calculated after applying all risk management rules, including drawdowns, consistency, and withdrawal limits.

2. Payout Duration

The payout processing timeline is linked to the first trade of the funded account:

Payout Number: 1st Payout

Duration from First Trade: 21 days

Payout Number: 2nd Payout

Duration from First Trade: 14 days

Payout Number: 3rd Payout & onwards

Duration from First Trade: 14 days

Notes:

·    The first payout is processed 21 days after the first trade in the funded account.

·    The second payout and all subsequent payouts are processed 14 days from the first trade of the funded account.

·    Payouts are only processed after account review by the Risk Management Team, ensuring compliance with all rules including consistency, drawdown, and withdrawal limits.

3. Examples

Example – $2,000 Account

·    Trader generates $300 profit by the first payout:

o   1st Payout: $300 × 60% = $180 to trader, $120 to company

·    Second payout profit = $200:

o   2nd Payout: $200 × 65% = $130 to trader, $70 to company

·    Third payout profit = $250:

o   3rd Payout: $250 × 70% = $175 to trader, $75 to company

Example – Payout Duration

·    First trade date: Nov 1

·    1st Payout available: Nov 22 (21 days)

·    2nd Payout available: Dec 6 (14 days from first trade)

·    All subsequent payouts: every 14 days

WHAT IS THE INSTANT FUNDING RISK SIZE PER TRADE RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – Risk Size per Trade Rule

1. Rule Definition

To ensure proper risk management and limit potential losses, the Instant Elite Funding program enforces the following risk size policy:

·    A trader may risk a maximum of 1.5% of the initial account balance per trade.

·    This limit applies to both individual trades and multiple trades opened simultaneously.

·    The total risk across all open trades cannot exceed 1.5% of the initial account balance at any given time.

2. How It Works

·    Risk per trade is calculated as:
Risk Amount=Initial Account Balance×1.5% = {Risk Amount}
Traders must
set stop-losses accordingly to ensure the maximum risk is not exceeded.

·    Violating this rule may lead to profit deductions or disqualification for that trading period.

3. Examples

Example 1 – $2,000 Account

·    Maximum risk per trade: 1.5% of $2,000 = $30

·    Trader opens a single trade with a potential loss of $30 → ✅ Allowed

Trader opens 2 trades simultaneously: Trade A = $20 risk, Trade B = $15 risk → ❌ Exceeds 1.5% total ($35 > $30)

Example 2 – $6,000 Account

·    Maximum risk per trade: 1.5% of $6,000 = $90

·    Trader opens 3 trades simultaneously: Trade A = $30, Trade B = $30, Trade C = $30 → Total $90 exceeds limit? Actually, $90 = limit → ✅ Allowed

·    Trader opens 2 trades: Trade A = $50, Trade B = $50 → ❌ Total $100 exceeds limit → Not allowed

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING LEVERAGE RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – Leverage Rules

1. Rule Definition

To manage risk and ensure sustainable trading, the Instant Elite Funding program enforces the following leverage limits for different asset classes:

Asset Class: Forex

Maximum Leverage: 1:50

Asset Class: Commodities

Maximum Leverage: 1:20

Asset Class: Indices

Maximum Leverage: 1:20

Asset Class: Cryptocurrency

Maximum Leverage: 1:2

Notes:

·    Leverage must be set according to the asset class when opening a position.

·    This ensures controlled exposure and aligns with risk management policies.

2. How It Works

·    Currency Trades can be opened with a maximum of 1:50 leverage.

·    Commodities and indices are limited to 1:20 leverage.

·    Cryptocurrency trades are limited to 1:2 leverage, due to their high volatility.

3. Examples

Example 1 – Forex Trade

·    Account size: $2,000

·    Maximum leverage: 1:50

·   Trader opens EURUSD trade → leverage ≤ 1:50 → ✅ Allowed

Example 2 – Crypto Trade

·    Account size: $2,000

·    Maximum leverage: 1:2

·    Trader opens BTCUSD trade → leverage ≤ 1:2 → ✅ Allowed

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – Commission Rule

1. Rule Definition

To cover operational costs and trading infrastructure, the Instant Elite Funding program charges a fixed commission per standard lot:

·    Commission: $7 per standard lot traded

·   Applies to all instruments where standard lot size is defined

·    Commission is deducted automatically from the account on every trade

2. How It Works

·    For each trade, the system calculates the lot size and deducts $7 per standard lot as commission.

·    Partial lots are pro-rated proportionally.

Commission=Number of Standard Lots×7 ={Commission}

3. Examples

Example 1 – Forex Trade

·    Trade size: 1 standard lot

·    Commission = 1 × $7 = $7

Example 2 – Partial Lot Trade

·    Trade size: 0.5 standard lot

·    Commission = 0.5 × $7 = $3.50

Example 3 – Multiple Trades

·    Trade A: 0.3 lot → Commission = $2.10

·    Trade B: 0.7 lot → Commission = $4.90

·    Total Commission Deducted: $7

WHAT IS THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING LAYERING RULE?

Instant Elite Funding – Layering Rule

1. Rule Definition

To prevent overtrading and impulsive entries, the Instant Elite Funding program enforces the following layering rule:

·    Every trader must wait at least 2 minutes before entering a new trade, regardless of whether it is the 2nd, 3rd, or subsequent trade.

·    This applies to all instruments and all order types.

·    The rule ensures disciplined trading and reduces risk from multiple rapid entries.

2. How It Works

·    The 2-minute timer starts from the execution time of the previous trade.

·    Traders can plan a new trade only after the 2-minute interval has passed.

Violating this rule may result in account review and profit adjustments.

3. Examples

Example – Forex Trades

·    Trade 1 executed at 10:00:05 → Next trade allowed after 10:02:05

·    Trade 2 executed at 10:02:10 → ✅ Compliant

·    Trade 3 executed at 10:04:15 → ✅ Compliant

·    If any trade is executed less than 2 minutes after the previous trade → ❌ Violation

Example – Multiple Trades in a Day

·    Trade 1: 14:30:00 → Next trade earliest 14:32:00

·    Trade 2: 14:32:10 → ✅ Allowed

·    Trade 3: 14:34:12 → ✅ Allowed

·    Trade 4: 14:36:50 → ✅ Allowed

·    Trades executed less than 2 minutes apart → ❌ Violation

WHAT ARE THE PROHIBITED STRATEGIES IN THE INSTANT ELITE FUNDING PROGRAM?

Our firm maintains strict standards to ensure fair, transparent, and sustainable trading conditions; therefore, several trading practices are expressly prohibited. Copy trading, mirror trading, or the use of any trade-replication services is not permitted, as all trading activity must originate from the trader’s own independent analysis. Holding positions overnight or across weekends is disallowed unless explicitly authorized for the specific account type, in order to mitigate unmanaged exposure and market-gap risk. Trading during high-impact news events is similarly prohibited due to the elevated likelihood of slippage and abnormal market behavior. High-frequency trading (HFT), tick scalping, and any strategies involving ultra-rapid order execution are strictly forbidden. Furthermore, grid trading, martingale-based methodologies, and all forms of arbitrage—including latency, triangular, and cross-broker arbitrage—are not allowed. The use of Expert Advisors (EAs) is permitted only when they comply fully with these restrictions and operate in a manner consistent with normal, human-like trading practices.
