Checked against Rebels Funding on 29 July 2026
Account Type
News trading is allowed. The FAQ states it plainly, and the terms confirm that no separate news window applies to the evaluation stage, with news restrictions applying to funded accounts only where the funded contract says so. The account rules pages still list avoiding NFP, GDP and FOMC among the steps for avoiding reduced payouts or contract termination.
Overnight and weekend holding are both allowed, with a spread widening warning on overnight positions and a recommendation to be cautious over the weekend. Crypto cannot be carried across a weekend because that market is closed on RF-Trader.
Expert advisors are prohibited outright. The firm states that no automated system can be run on its platform. Copy trading is not addressed by name anywhere on the firm's own pages. Account sharing, trading on behalf of another person and account management services are all prohibited.
Hedging is prohibited both within and across accounts, including across linked accounts, accounts held by other companies and between the firm's training and funded accounts. Trades must stay open for at least 30 seconds, martingale and grid trading are prohibited, and risk above 1.5% of the funded balance at the moment of opening is listed as a prohibited practice.
Yes. The FAQ allows it and the terms state that no separate news trading window applies to the evaluation stage. The account rules pages nonetheless recommend avoiding major releases such as NFP, GDP and FOMC on the funded account, in a block about avoiding reduced payouts or contract termination.
Yes, though the firm recommends caution and warns about weekend platform issues such as slow chart loading. Crypto is the exception, since it is closed at weekends on RF-Trader.
No. The FAQ and all five account rules pages state that no automatic expert advisor system can be run on the trading platform.
No. The terms prohibit bilateral and multilateral hedging, including across linked accounts, accounts held by other companies, several customers' accounts, and between training accounts and funded accounts. Trade splitting is also flagged as raising suspicion of external hedging.
Rebels Funding does not publish one. There is no percentage formula and therefore no statement of whether realised or unrealised profit would be used. The firm publishes a recommendation to keep position sizes consistent and reserves the right to judge unusual position sizing at its sole discretion.
A drawdown breach sets the account to read only and closes open trades. Failing a phase condition ends the program with no compensation for the fee paid. A prohibited trading practice lets the firm fail the account, delete the offending trades, terminate all services and contracts, or cut leverage to 1:5 across the customer's accounts.
