Trading Days guide
Learn how Trading Days work on Classic Mode, including requirements by account size and how closing deals are counted.
Classic Mode accounts must complete a minimum number of Trading Days before passing a challenge stage or requesting a payout. Unlike Minimum Profitable Days on other modes, there is no requirement for the day to be profitable — only that at least one position was closed.
What Is a Trading Day?
A Trading Day is any day on which at least one closing deal was executed on your account. This includes partial closures of any size. A new Trading Day begins at 22:00 GMT (21:00 GMT during US Daylight Saving Time).
ℹ️ The system checks Trading Days once per day at 22:05 GMT (21:05 during US Daylight Saving Time). It can take up to 10 minutes after this time for your stats to update.
Requirements by Account Size
The minimum Trading Days requirement is 3 Trading Days for all Classic Mode account sizes (5K, 10K, 20K, 50K, 100K, and 150K).
ℹ️ You can skip this requirement entirely with the Skip Minimum Trading Days Add-On.
Examples
Example 1 — Position closed the next day
Monday does not count because no position was closed on that day. Tuesday counts as a Trading Day because the position was closed after the new day started at 22:00 GMT. At 22:05 on Tuesday, one Trading Day is recorded.
Example 2 — Partial close across multiple days
Monday does not count. Tuesday and Wednesday both count because a closing deal was executed on each day. At 22:05 on Wednesday, two Trading Days are recorded.
