The rules that decide whether a PipFarm account passes, stays funded or breaches. PipFarm publishes these as individual policy articles, and several of them differ between the evaluation and the funded stage.
Checked against PipFarm on 28 July 2026
Account Type
News trading is fully allowed. There is no restricted window before or after high impact releases, and no profit cap tied to them. Repeatedly placing maximum size positions immediately before major events can still be reviewed under the firm's toxic trading policy.
Automated trading is allowed, but only with a strategy you own. cTrader cBots, plugins, Open API connections and copiers between your own accounts are permitted. Ready made bots bought or downloaded from a marketplace are not, and PipFarm can ask you to explain your automated strategy.
Hedging is allowed inside a single account. Hedging the same or correlated instruments across two or more accounts, including accounts at other firms, is prohibited and treated as toxic trading.
Alongside daily and maximum loss, PipFarm applies a Max Risk cap on combined open and closed loss inside a risk window, at 2% on standard funded accounts and 1% on Instant. Standard accounts get three strikes; Pay with Profits accounts breach immediately.
Yes, fully. PipFarm states there are no restrictions on opening or closing positions before, during or after high impact news, including non-farm payrolls, rate decisions, CPI and GDP. Repeatedly taking maximum size positions just before major releases may be flagged during account reviews as speculative behaviour.
Yes. Overnight and weekend holding are allowed on both challenge and simulated funded accounts, and cryptocurrency can be traded at the weekend. Swaps apply unless the swap free add-on was bought.
Yes, provided the strategy is your own. cTrader cBots, plugins, Open API connections, custom scripts and copiers between your own accounts are permitted. Buying or downloading a ready made bot and running it is treated the same as copying another trader and results in account termination.
Yes, and it depends on the account. The consistency score is the best trading day divided by total profit. Consistency mode requires 35% or less, Instant accounts 25% or less, and Classic and Endurance funded accounts 50%. It is checked when a challenge is passed and when a payout is requested.
Only between your own accounts. Copying trades from another person, or sending your trades to someone else's account, is prohibited whether done manually or automatically. Copying between your own PipFarm, other prop firm and broker accounts is permitted.
A daily or maximum loss breach ends the account. A stop out violation terminates it immediately and cannot be appealed. Where a rule has been manipulated, PipFarm may reset the account, require the stage to be traded again, remove the profit gained, or breach the account. Behaviour flagged as toxic runs through a warning and probation before corrective action.
