OFP Funding Weekend Holding Rule
The Simple Answer
OFP Funding allows holding positions overnight and over the weekend, with no time limits on how long a position can stay open. There is no requirement to close before the weekend, so positions can be carried across the evaluation and funded stages.
The model suits swing and longer-term trading. Swap fees apply on positions held overnight and over the weekend, and weekend gap risk applies when the market reopens.
Below is a breakdown of how the OFP Funding weekend holding rules apply across different account types and stages.
| Challenge Type | Evaluation Phase | Funded Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Instant | N/A | Allowed |
| 1 Step | Allowed | Allowed |
| 2 Step | Allowed | Allowed |
Breakdown by Account Type
Instant
The Instant account has no evaluation phase. Weekend holding is allowed on the funded account, with no time limit on positions.
1 Step
Weekend holding is allowed during the evaluation and on the funded account. Positions can be carried over the weekend, with swap costs and weekend gap risk to plan for.
2 Step
Weekend holding is allowed across both evaluation phases and the funded account. There is no requirement to close before the weekend.
Swap and Triple Swap
Swap fees apply on positions held overnight and over the weekend, based on standard market conditions for each instrument. OFP Funding does not publish a fixed triple swap schedule, so the standard market convention applies, where the rollover for a full weekend is charged on a single day during the week.
| Instrument | Triple Swap Day |
|---|---|
| FX pairs | Wednesday |
| Metals | Wednesday |
| Indices | Friday |
| Other instruments | Friday |
Warning System for Weekend Holding Violations
There is no weekend restriction to breach at OFP Funding, so weekend holding does not trigger a violation on any account. The risks are market based, mainly the weekend gap and thin liquidity when the market reopens, plus swap costs that build up on positions held over the weekend.
Final Comments
OFP Funding allows weekend and overnight holding with no time limits, which suits swing and longer-term traders who want to carry positions from Friday to Monday. There is no forced closure before the weekend on any account.
The main costs to plan for are swap fees on positions held over the weekend and the weekend gap when the market reopens. Prices can move sharply at the open, and that market risk remains the trader’s responsibility.
