Weekend holding is permitted across the evaluation phases and the funded account, so a position can be carried from Friday&#8217;s close through to Monday&#8217;s open.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">Swap fees apply on positions held overnight and over the weekend unless you add the Swap-Free Add-On when you buy the Challenge. Weekend gaps, news risk, and slippage when the market reopens remain the trader&#8217;s responsibility.<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 3: Table --><br \/>\nBelow is a breakdown of how the BrightFunded weekend holding rules apply across different account types and stages.<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Challenge Type<\/th>\n<th>Evaluation Phase<\/th>\n<th>Funded Phase<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>2 Step (Evaluation)<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- SECTION 4: Breakdown by account type --><\/p>\n<h4>Breakdown by Account Type<\/h4>\n<h3>2 Step (Evaluation)<\/h3>\n<p>BrightFunded uses a two phase evaluation followed by a funded account. Weekend holding is allowed across both evaluation phases and on the funded account. Positions can be held over the weekend without breaching any rule. Swap fees apply unless the Swap-Free Add-On is active, and traders should account for weekend gap risk when the market reopens.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 5: Swap --><\/p>\n<h3>Swap and Triple Swap<\/h3>\n<p>Swap fees apply on positions held overnight and over the weekend, based on standard market conditions for each instrument. BrightFunded does not charge swap fees if you buy the Swap-Free Add-On at the time of purchasing your Challenge. Where swaps apply, the rollover for a full weekend is charged on a single day during the week, following the standard market convention.<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Instrument<\/th>\n<th>Triple Swap Day<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>FX pairs<\/td>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Metals<\/td>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Indices<\/td>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Other instruments<\/td>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- SECTION 6: Warning system --><\/p>\n<h3>Warning System for Weekend Holding Violations<\/h3>\n<p>There is no weekend restriction to breach at BrightFunded, so weekend holding does not trigger a violation, warning, or penalty on the evaluation or the funded account. The risks are market based, mainly weekend gaps, news that breaks while the market is closed, and slippage when trading reopens. Swap costs apply unless the Swap-Free Add-On is active.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 7: Final comments --><\/p>\n<h3>Final Comments<\/h3>\n<p>BrightFunded allows weekend holding across both evaluation phases and the funded account, with no requirement to close positions overnight. This gives swing traders the flexibility to carry positions from Friday to Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The main costs to plan for are swap fees, which can be removed with the Swap-Free Add-On bought at the time of the Challenge, and the risk of weekend gaps. Major news or events while the market is closed can move prices sharply at the open, and that risk remains the trader&#8217;s responsibility.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 8: Promo --><br \/>\n\ud83d\udc49 Learn more details and compare prop firm discounts here: <a class=\"decorated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/propvator.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Propvator.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(to right, #1e40af, #2563eb); padding: 10px; text-align: center; border-radius: 10px; margin-top: 20px;\">\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #fff; margin: 0; font-weight: bold; text-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\">Find the Best Prop Firm Deals on Propvator<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/propvator.com\/\"><br \/>\n<button style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #2a3da4; padding: 10px 20px; border: none; border-radius: 5px; cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; box-shadow: 0 2px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); font-size: 16px;\">Compare Prop Firms<\/button><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- SECTION 9: FAQ --><\/p>\n<h3>FAQ<\/h3>\n<h4>Is weekend holding allowed at BrightFunded?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes.
