Some Challenge Specific Rules
10% Profit Target – Due to this being a single phase challenge we only need to see that you can hit 10% profit with good risk management, instead of the overall 13% you need to make in the Standard Challenge.

The trading day starts at 17:00 EST. If your starting balance for the day is $100,000 then you can risk UP TO $4,000. This is a smaller daily drawdown limit to the Standard Challenge as we want to make sure traders on the Single Phase can manage risk. 8% Maximum Drawdown Limit – You should never exceed more than 8% drawdown of the account.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions answered!
The basics
Request a payout via your dashboard. You can request a payout after 14 days and then every 14 days after. You do not have to request a payout every other week, you can wait as long as you need to before requesting a payout.
Challenge fees are refunded after you get your second payout.
Refunds are not available for any other reason.
We use 1:30 across forex pairs, 1:10 for indices and 1:2 for cryptocurrencies.
You can have 3 active accounts at the same time, with a maximum total starting balance of $300,000 across all of your accounts.
Our commission is only charged on forex pairs at $3.5 per lot each side.
This commision is charged to simulate live trading conditions.
High water mark means which ever is higher your account balance or equity.
If at the start of the day you have
a balance of $10,000
and an open trade in profit of $1000
So your equity is $11,000
Your equity is the high water mark on you account.
If the trade is in a loss then the exact opposite happens and your balance is the high water mark
3 months minimum trading period,
10% of payouts made over this period.
Account must be above initial balance.
Increase your account by 30% of the initial balance.
Once scaled payout split goes up to 90:10
This can be repeated up to a maximum of $1,000,000
You can make your first payout request after 14 calendar days on your live account. We now allow any size payout over $50! After you have made your request you will not be able to make another payout request for 14 days.
If you breach any of the account rules before 14 days you will not be eligible for a payout. If you breach after the 14 days then we will pay you 50% of the profits left in the account.
You need to make sure that all trades are closed before requesting a payout and do not continue to trade until your payout request has been confirmed.
You can request a payout at anytime in your dashboard. You will receive a response to let you know the payout has been confirmed and then funds will be transferred to you within 7 days.
Payments to traders are made through Crypto, Paypal.
You can now merge live accounts right away! If you are already a live trader with us and pass a second challenge, you can merge both live accounts to give yourself more buying power.
The drawdown limit on the merged account will be equal to the drawdown limit you had previously on each separate account.
Merged accounts can be scaled 3 months after merging as long as 10% of the new balance is made.
Trade Restrictions
Expert advisors are allowed however please check our trading restrictions and make sure your EA does not violate one of the forbidden trading styles.
We may request to see the source code of any ea used if we think its involved in cheating
Yes you can hedge trades. As long as this is not across accounts.
You can copy trades from people outside of our firm,
You can’t copy trade off another account in our firm. (Including your own)
This is seen as working on consort and your account’s will be terminated.
We define copy trading as taking a trade across multiple accounts in the same direction. As an example, if you are buying XAUUSD on one account you should not buy XAUUSD on another account until this trade is closed.
You can now however merge any funded accounts you may have to be able to use more buying power if you need to.
Trading during news is allowed, however, not more than 50% of your margin and if significant profits are generated due to abnormal price movements, the trade may be reset and you may be asked to demonstrate more consistent trading.
Traders should be aware that market fluctuations can occur during news events, which can cause slippage and a delay in the synchronization of a trader’s account and our margin account, leading to varying results. As a result, we cannot guarantee any profits made during a news event on a funded account.
You can hold trades over the weekend. We do however recommend you exercise caution as huge moves can happen on market open.
Traders can also trade cryptocurrency which is open 24/7.
No Minimum trading days.
No maximum trading days.
Your challenge will expire after 30 days of inactivity.
We don’t require you to use the same trading style and strategy all the time. However you are required to trade in the same way you have in your challenge on the live account.
The following trading styles are not allowed:
a. High-Frequency Trading (HFT) or High-Volume Scalping.
b. Arbitrage Trading that exploits any form of latency.
c. Martingale Trading / Grid Trading (except for adding to an existing position).
d. Hedging across multiple accounts or reverse trading, Including reverse trading across firms.
e. Copy Trading across multiple accounts.
f. All-or-Nothing Trading, where you can lose the account in one trade
g. Any trading style that we deem too risky will result in a retake.
We do not allow traders to use “pass your challenge” services. The challenge is there for us to see how you trade personally to give us an idea on how you will actually treat our live account. If you use a service to pass our challenge, we will not be able to see how you personally trade and we will not offer you funding.
Drawdown Rules
Absolute drawdown is static so wont move EVER.
Example.
Starting Balance: $100,000
8% drawdown meaning your account equity can fall all the way to $92,000 before your account is in breach, no matter how much profit you make.
Relative drawdown is like a trailing stop loss. which follows you up with every $0.01 you make. This tracks Equity not balance.
Example.
Starting balance $100,000
8% Relative Drawdown breach level = $92,000
If you have an open trade that goes up to $2000 unsettled profit
then you close this trade at $1000 profit
your drawdown would have trailed up to $94,000 due to the high water mark of your account being $102,000.
Daily drawdown is static for the day.
At reset time (17:00 EST) your daily drawdown is reset relative to your current highwater.
What does this mean?
At reset your have a equity of $102,000 and a balance of $101,000
You will now have 4% (2 phase 4% 1 phase) from this equity.
Drawdown for the day = 4,080
The exact opposite would happen if your are are a loss.
Daily drawdown used high water mark meaning any unsettled profit at reset will be taken in to account
2 Phase accounts:
NO MORE RELATIVE ON LIVE! The overall drawdown is now absolute which means it will always remain 10% of the starting balance.
1 Phase accounts:
Drawdown will trail with your account equity. If your original drawdown limit is $92,000 and you make $2,000 profit, your new drawdown limit will be $94,000.
Absolute Drawdown Accounts:
Once you make a withdrawal your drawdown will remain exactly the same. If your drawdown limit was previously $90,000 it will still be $90,000.
Relative Drawdown Accounts:
When you make a withdrawal on your live account, the amount you have withdrawn will be deducted from your accounts high water mark.
Example.
Account High water mark : $105,000
Account Balance: $104,000
Account Breach Level: $97,000
You then withdraw $4,000
New Account High water mark: $101,000
New Account Balance: $100,000
New Account Breach Level: $93,000

Greg Pyles
I am currently running the 25K two phase challenge on Glow Node. I really like the rules since I am using an EA and they expressly state that this is allowed. Very few restrictions and a fair price. The discord group is a little slow but the important thing to me is that the two founders are both in there every day answering questions and are very transparent. Look forward to getting funded with them soon. Will update this review if anything changes.
Steph
Glow Node really cares about its customer base. Customer support is very responsive and friendly. I was having a problem with my credit card company Glow node representative and the CEO hung in there with me until I could get the sync issue resolved with my credit card company. I have not had a problem since. The company is interested in everyone being successful. The company provides free training and most importantly mindset training which is very important in trading. If you want to be a successful trader or if you are a successful trader I would encourage you to check out Glow Node.

Super approachable through discord and telegram, where they have built an amazing community which is being built upon daily. It's not often you find genuine trustworthy people within this space, but this is 100% one of them!! A+++
