Introduction

If you participate in the Classic Mode, you must complete the minimum Trading Day requirement to pass a stage/challenge or request a payout. The number of Trading Days you must complete depends on your account size.

What is a Trading Day?

A Trading Day is a day where at least one closing deal was executed in your account. A new Trading Day begins daily at 22:00 GMT during standard time and 21:00 GMT during US Daylight Savings.

The system checks Trading Days once per day at 22:05 GMT (21:05 during US Daylight Savings).
