Positions cannot be held over the weekend, and all futures positions are closed at the session close of 15:55 CST each weekday. Overnight holding is allowed on the forex programs.<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 3 --><br \/>\nBelow is a breakdown of how the FX2 Funding 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>Instant (Instant Funding)<\/td>\n<td>N\/A<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1 Step<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2 Step<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Futures<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<td>Not Allowed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- SECTION 4 --><\/p>\n<h4>Breakdown by Account Type<\/h4>\n<h3>Instant (Instant Funding)<\/h3>\n<p>The Instant Funding account has no evaluation phase. Holding trades overnight and over the weekend is permitted on the funded account.<\/p>\n<h3>1 Step<\/h3>\n<p>Weekend holding is allowed during the single evaluation phase and on the funded account. Positions can be carried over the weekend, with swap costs and weekend gap risk to plan for.<\/p>\n<h3>2 Step<\/h3>\n<p>Weekend holding is allowed across both evaluation phases and the funded account. There is no requirement to close before the weekend on the forex program.<\/p>\n<h3>Futures<\/h3>\n<p>The Futures program does not allow weekend holding. All positions are closed at the session close of 15:55 CST each weekday, and positions cannot be held over the weekend on the evaluation or the funded account.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 5 --><\/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. FX2 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.<\/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 --><\/p>\n<h3>Warning System for Weekend Holding Violations<\/h3>\n<p>On the FX2 Funding forex programs, the 1 Step, 2 Step, and Instant Funding accounts, holding over the weekend is permitted, so it does not trigger a violation. On the Futures program, weekend holding is not allowed. All futures positions are closed at the session close of 15:55 CST each weekday, and trading reopens at the Globex open of 17:00 CST, so a futures position cannot reach the weekend. Weekend gap risk applies on the forex programs when the market reopens.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 7 --><\/p>\n<h3>Final Comments<\/h3>\n<p>FX2 Funding sets its weekend holding policy by program. The forex programs, the 1 Step, 2 Step, and Instant Funding accounts, allow holding overnight and over the weekend, which suits swing traders. The Futures program does not allow weekend holding, since all positions close at the session close each weekday.<\/p>\n<p>Traders who want to hold over the weekend should use the forex programs rather than Futures. Swap costs apply on positions held over the weekend, and weekend gap risk remains the trader&#8217;s responsibility when the market reopens.<br \/>\n<!-- SECTION 8 --><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 --><\/p>\n<h3>FAQ<\/h3>\n<h4>Is weekend holding allowed at FX2 Funding?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes on the forex programs, the 1 Step, 2 Step, and Instant Funding accounts.

Swap fees apply on positions held overnight and over the weekend, based on standard market conditions.<\/p>\n<h4>Does the rule differ by account type?<\/h4>\n<p>On forex, no. The 1 Step, 2 Step, and Instant Funding accounts all allow weekend holding. Only the Futures program does not.<\/p>\n<h4>What is the main risk of holding over the weekend?<\/h4>\n<p>The weekend gap.
