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. Once you hit 10%, we’ll review your account and you’ll become a Funded Trader!
4% Daily Relative Drawdown Limit – You get a maximum of 4% drawdown of the high water marker your account started the day with. 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. This will trail with you as you profit. If you start with a $100,000 account your drawdown limit will be $92,000.

No Profit Targets – You do not have any profit targets with this account or even profit limits! Feel free to make as much profit as you possibly can, sticking to good risk management of course!
4% Daily Relative Drawdown Limit – You still get a 4% daily drawdown limit with this account.
8% Maximum Drawdown Limit – You should never exceed more than 8% drawdown of the account starting high water mark.
If you start with $100,000 your drawdown limit is $92,000. This drawdown limit trails as your account grows i.e reach $1,000 profit your draw down will have raised by 1% ($93,000).

frequently asked questions

your questions:

Answered

Request a payout via your dashboard. You can request a payout after 14 days and then every 14 days thereafter. You do not have to request a payout every other week; you can wait as long as you need before requesting a payout.

Challenge fees are refunded only after you receive your second payout. No refunds are provided for any other reason.

Our leverage ratios are as follows: 1:30 for forex pairs, 1:10 for indices, and 1:2 for cryptocurrencies.

You can have up to three active accounts at once, with a total starting balance limit of $300,000 across all your accounts.

We only charge commissions on forex pairs, at a rate of $2.50 per lot for each side. This commission is applied to replicate live trading conditions.

High water mark refers to the higher of either your account balance or equity.

For example, if at the start of the day you have a balance of $10,000 and an open trade in profit of $1,000, making your equity $11,000, then your equity becomes the high water mark on your account.

However, if the trade is at a loss, then the balance becomes the high water mark.

  1. There is a minimum trading period of 3 months.
  2. You are eligible to receive 10% of payouts made over this 3-month period.
  3. Your account balance must be above the initial balance to qualify.
  4. You can increase your account by 30% of the initial balance.
  5. Once scaled, the payout split changes to 90:10 (90% for you, 10% for the platform).
  6. This scaling process can be repeated up to a maximum of $1,000,000.
  1. You can request your first payout after 14 calendar days on your live account, with no minimum payout amount.
  2. After making a payout request, you must wait another 14 days before making another request.
  3. If you violate any account rules before 14 days, you won’t be eligible for a payout. After 14 days, breaching rules results in a 50% payout of remaining profits.
  4. Close all trades before requesting a payout and refrain from trading until the request is confirmed.
  5. Payouts can be requested anytime via your dashboard. Confirmation typically takes place within 7 days.
  6. Payments are processed through RiseWorks.io. Create an account there, complete verification, and upon payout request, we’ll invite you to our team for payment transfer. You can then withdraw funds using various methods offered by RiseWorks.io.
  1. You can merge live accounts immediately! If you’re an existing live trader and pass a second challenge, you can merge both accounts for increased buying power.
  2. The drawdown limit on the merged account will be the same as the drawdown limit of each separate account.
  3. Merged accounts can be scaled 3 months after merging, provided that at least 10% of the new balance is earned.

You’re allowed to hedge trades, but make sure not to hedge across different accounts.

  1. You’re allowed to copy trades from people outside our firm.
  2. However, you’re prohibited from copying trades off another account within our firm, including your own. Doing so is considered colluding and will result in account termination.
  3. Copy trading is defined as taking a trade across multiple accounts in the same direction. For instance, if you’re buying XAUUSD on one account, you shouldn’t buy XAUUSD on another account until the trade is closed.
  4. You can now merge any funded accounts you have to increase your buying power if needed.
  1. While trading during news events is permitted, it’s essential to follow specific guidelines. Trades should not utilize more than 50% of your margin at the time the news event occurs. Moreover, if significant profits result from abnormal price movements, trades might be reset, necessitating traders to exhibit more consistent trading practices. Trading with more than 50% margin utilized in an open trade exceeds our risk thresholds and may result in account termination following the manual review processes.

    Traders must grasp that market dynamics can undergo substantial shifts during news events, potentially resulting in slippage and delays in account synchronization between the trader’s account and our margin account. Consequently, outcomes may vary, and we cannot assure profits generated during news events on funded accounts. To identify High Risk News ( Red Folder Events) we use https://www.dailyfx.com/economic-calendar and https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar
  1. You’re allowed to keep trades open over the weekend, but be cautious as significant market movements can occur at the opening.
  2. Additionally, traders have the option to trade cryptocurrencies, which operate 24/7.

There are no minimum trading days and no maximum trading days. However your account will be terminated after 30 days of inactivity.

Keep your trading consistent. You don’t have to use the exact same strategy every time, but make sure your live trading matches how you traded during your challenge.

The following trading styles are prohibited to ensure fair and secure trading practices:

a. High-Frequency Trading (HFT) or High-Volume Scalping: Engaging in rapid trading or scalping strategies with high volumes is not allowed.

b. Arbitrage Trading Exploiting Latency: Trading strategies that exploit any form of latency for arbitrage purposes are prohibited.

c. Martingale Trading / Grid Trading (except for adding to an existing position up to 3 times): Martingale or grid trading strategies, which involve increasing position sizes after losses but are not limited to this, are not permitted, except for limited scenarios where adding to an existing position is allowed up to three times. Additionally, ensure that you never have more than 4 positions on the same pair open simultaneously to mitigate risk and maintain portfolio diversity. (This includes pairs like XAUUSD and XAUEUR)

d. Hedging Across Multiple Accounts or Reverse Trading: Hedging across multiple accounts or engaging in reverse trading activities, including reverse trading across different firms, is prohibited.

e. Copy Trading Across Multiple GlowNode Accounts: Copying trading strategies across multiple accounts is not permitted.

f. All-or-Nothing Trading: Engaging in trading strategies where the entire account can be lost in a single trade is prohibited. Furthermore, traders should never use more than 75%  of the account’s daily drawdown on one symbol at any given time to mitigate the risk of substantial losses and promote responsible risk management practices.

g. Any Trading Style Deemed Too Risky: Any trading style that we determine to be excessively risky will result in a retake.

These rules are in place to maintain a level playing field, promote responsible trading practices, and protect the integrity of our trading environment.

Traders are not allowed to use “pass your challenge” services. The challenge is made to see how you trade personally, so we know how you’ll handle our live account. If you use such a service, we can’t see how you really trade, and we won’t give you funding.

It is mandatory that more than 25% of trades are placed with a stop loss to manage risk effectively. This practice is essential for maintaining the integrity of trading strategies and safeguarding against significant losses. Failure to comply with this requirement will lead to account termination.

Trades are required to be open for a minimum duration of 2 minutes to ensure adequate time for accurate replication. Profits generated by trades with durations shorter than this may be subject to removal, as replicating such trades securely and effectively may be compromised.

The absolute drawdown remains fixed and will never change. For instance, if you start with a balance of $100,000, and there’s an 8% drawdown allowance, your account equity can decline to $92,000 before breaching, regardless of any profits earned.

The relative drawdown acts like a trailing stop loss, following your equity with every $0.01 gained. This is based on your equity, not your balance.

For example: Starting balance: $100,000 8% Relative Drawdown breach level: $92,000

If you have an open trade with an unsettled profit of $2000, and you close the trade with a $1000 profit, your drawdown would have trailed up to $94,000. This is due to the high water mark of your account reaching $102,000.

The daily drawdown remains fixed for the day.

At the reset time (17:00 EST), your daily drawdown is recalculated based on your current high water mark.

For example: If at reset time, your equity is $102,000 and your balance is $101,000, you will have a 4% drawdown (2 phases of 4% each). So, the drawdown for the day would be $4,080.

The same principle applies if you’re at a loss. The daily drawdown considers the high water mark, meaning any unsettled profit at reset will be taken into account.

For 2 Phase accounts:

The overall drawdown is now absolute, meaning it always remains at 10% of the starting balance.

 

For 1 Phase accounts:

The drawdown will trail with your account equity. For example, if your original drawdown limit is $92,000 and you make a $2,000 profit, your new drawdown limit will be $94,000.

For Absolute Drawdown Accounts:

Your drawdown limit remains the same after making a withdrawal. For example, if your drawdown limit was $90,000 before the withdrawal, it will still be $90,000 afterward.

 

For Relative Drawdown Accounts:

When you withdraw from your live account, the withdrawn amount is deducted from your account’s high water mark.

Example: Original Account High Water Mark: $105,000 Original Account Balance: $104,000 Original 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.

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.
