Current product rules and clause 8.1(c) of the Terms specify static maximum drawdown calculated from the starting account balance, with a floor that does not trail profits. Published funded limits are 3% daily / 3% static for PRO 1-Step, 4% daily / 7% static for CLASSIC 1-Step, and 5% daily / 10% static for CLASSIC 2-Step. Traders may mirror trades between their own Velotrade accounts and independently use commercially available Expert Advisors and public subscription signal services. Direct copying between different people’s accounts, private or restricted signals, and third-party account management remain prohibited.
The challenge fee is the only payment charged to the trader’s card or payment method. Published commissions and overnight funding are deducted from the simulated trading account. The single-stock holding charge is the same 0.05% overnight funding charge, applied at 00:30 UTC including weekends. Variable network fees are deducted from payouts and displayed at withdrawal.
