📂 Firm Rules:

News Trading

News trading is allowed during the Challenge Phase but prohibited on Live Simulated Accounts.
Trades opened or closed within 3 minutes before or after high-risk news will result in profit removal for those trades. This is a soft breach and does not terminate the account. Trades can still be held through the violation window.
If a trade is opened more than 3 hours before the news release, profits will count and not be removed, even if closed in the 6-minute window.

Minimum Profitable Days Requirement

Applies only to 1-step, 2-step and 3-step evaluations (not live simulated accounts).
Traders must achieve at least 3 profitable days (each generating 0.5%+ of the initial balance).
Failure to meet this does not cause a breach but delays passing the challenge.

Copy Trading

Copy trading and the use of EAs/Bots copy trading is Allowed, but only for your own trades, copying signals, family, or other traders is not permitted. Arbitrage, latency exploitation, or group trading is strictly prohibited. Violations can result in account closure, profit forfeiture, permanent bans.
See Details: https://intercom.help/SeacrestFunded/en/articles/6462422-copy-trading

30-Day Inactivity Rule

You must place at least one trade every 30 days to keep your account active. This timer starts from the time of purchase, not from your first trade.

EAs

Expert Advisors (EAs): Allowed on MT5 only, but Duplikium and arbitrage-based methods are strictly prohibited. Traders must use unique EAs, avoid HFT, and follow fair trading practices. Any violations can lead to account closure, loss of profits, and a permanent ban, with all activity closely monitored by the risk team.
See Details: https://intercom.help/SeacrestFunded/en/articles/6480358-trading-using-bots-eas

Leverage & Risk Limits (Funded account only)

Maxing out leverage or using gambling-style trading is not allowed.
Total position size must not exceed 2% max risk of the account.
First Violation leads to Warning, possible profit removal, and leverage reduction. On the second violation, your profits will be removed again until you are in compliance with the rules, but we will not breach your account.

VPN's/IP and VPS/Multiple Devices

VPNs and VPS are allowed, but only for personal use. You must use paid services and never share devices or IPs with other traders. Using VPNs, VPS, or multiple devices to bypass copy trading, group trading, or signal trading rules will lead to account termination.

Prohibition of Multiple Accounts Sharing the Same Client ID (CID) on the MT5 Platform

A single Client ID (CID) must not be used to access or operate multiple MT5 accounts, whether at the same time or one after another, regardless of ownership or account type.
Violation leads to immediate disqualification, closure of all associated accounts, forfeiture of any profit share or funding status and a permanent ban from Seacrest Markets programs.

Max Open Position per Asset

No more than two open positions are allowed per asset (same pair) within the same timeframe

Excessive Scalping Policy

Traders must hold each trade for more than 2 minutes on average per trade, not averaged across all trades; occasional shorter trades are allowed, but persistent sub-2-minute trades are prohibited. Violations result in voided profits and account reset, to prevent tick scalping and price-feed manipulation.
