By allowing news trading, Top One Futures provides traders with the tools and flexibility to trade effectively in a dynamic market environment. Always remember to trade responsibly and manage your risk.

At Top One Futures, we do not allow the use of Expert Advisors (EAs) or Bots on our accounts.

Can I Use EAs or Bots to Trade on Instant Funding Accounts?

No, the use of Expert Advisors (EAs) or Bots is not allowed on your accounts. We require all traders to engage in manual, skill-based trading to ensure fairness and integrity in the trading environment.

What Happens If I Use EAs or Bots?

If you are found using an EA or Bot on your account, you may face the following consequences:

• Account suspension or termination.

• Potential loss of funding privileges.

• Possible violations that may affect your trading status.

By adhering to this policy, traders at Top One Futures can trade with confidence, knowing they are following the best practices for fair and risk-managed trading.

Top One Futures allows you to copy trades to manage multiple accounts efficiently. However, to maintain risk integrity, copy trading is strictly limited to accounts of the exact same type and exact same size.

Mixing different account programs, sizes, or trying to bypass these rules through manual mirroring or correlated assets is a strict violation of our terms.

1. The Core Rule: Same Type, Same Size

You can only copy trades between accounts that belong to the identical program and share the same size.

• Allowed Examples: Elite Access $50K to another Elite Access $50K, or Ignite Instant Funding $100K to another Ignite Instant Funding $100K.

• Prohibited Examples (including, but not limited to):

  • Trading Elite Access with Elite Daily (Different Type)

  • Trading Instant Sim Funded with Ignite Instant Funding (Different Type)

  • An Instant Sim Funded $50K account with an Instant Sim Funded $100K account (Different Size)

2. What Counts as Prohibited Copy Trading?

Copy trading violations are not just limited to software settings. The following actions are classified as unauthorized copy trading:

A. Copying Different Accounts or Sizes Together

Using a trade copier to link, bridge, or trade different account types or different account sizes together at the same time.

B. Manual Mirroring (Delayed Entries)

Manually entering the same trade across different account types or sizes to copy your own positions. If you buy or sell the same instrument across mismatched accounts, even if it is minutes or an hour later, it is still classified as copy trading. As long as the position is still active on your first account and the different account size or type goes in the same direction as well, it is classified as copy trading.

C. Correlated Asset Trading

Trading the same direction on highly correlated assets across different account types or sizes. Highly correlated instruments move closely together, meaning trading them in the same direction simultaneously is a strict violation.

• What IS considered Correlated (Prohibited) includes, but is not limited to:

  • Example: Trading ES (S&P 500) and NQ (Nasdaq), or YM (Dow Jones) and RTY (Russell 2000) in the same direction across mismatched accounts.

  • Mini and Micro Versions Example: Trading ES and MES, or NQ and MNQ in the same direction across mismatched accounts.

• What IS NOT considered Correlated(Allowed):

  • Trading completely unrelated asset classes at the same time across different account types. For example, going long on NQ (Nasdaq) in your Instant Sim Funded account while simultaneously going long on CL (Crude Oil) or GC (Gold) in your Elite Daily account is acceptable.

Does TOP ONE FUTURES provide its own trade copier software?

Yes! We provide a trade copier feature built directly into our trading platform, Tradovate. You can set up and manage your trade copier configurations right from within the platform. For more information about Group Trading, refer to this FAQ article from Tradovate here.

What does "Individual Trading Responsibility" mean for copy trading?

It means that each trader must operate independently. Even if you're using our trade copier for your own accounts, certain actions are strictly not allowed because they violate the spirit of individual trading:

• Executing the same trades as another person or account.

• Coordinated trading with relatives or friends.

• Following signal services, Telegram groups, Discord calls, or any shared trade alert system.

• Subscribing to any service that results in mirrored trades across different accounts.

We expect unique strategies per trader, not correlated or synchronized actions between different individuals or entities.

Note on Copy Trading Between Firms:

We understand that some traders now use third-party platforms to mirror their trades across multiple firms. While Top One Futures does not prohibit copy trading between your own accounts at different firms, all trade decisions must originate from activity on our platform.

As long as your trades begin from your Top One Futures account and reflect your own strategy and discretion, this is acceptable. However, any behavior resembling signal following, group trading, or mirroring someone else’s trades remains strictly prohibited.

Your Responsibility for Copy Trading Adjustments and Outcomes

Each trader is solely responsible for the configuration, supervision, and final outcomes of all trades executed via 3rd party copy trading software

Scope of Responsibility:

Execution Errors:

TOP ONE FUTURES is not responsible for trades that fail to copy, copy incorrectly, or execute at unintended times/sizes.

Account Outcomes:

Any account loss or breach, including but not limited to Maximum Drawdown violations or Daily Loss Limit hits resulting from third-party software activity, is the sole responsibility of the trader.

No Reversals:

We cannot void losses, reset accounts, or provide refunds for trades originated by external software, regardless of whether the trader manually initiated the trade or not.

Pre-Trade Requirement: It is crucial that you test and verify your copy trading settings thoroughly in a simulated environment before active trading to ensure accurate replication and alignment with your risk management strategy.

The daily drawdown is set between 2.0% - 2.5% of your account balance. This helps manage risk and ensures responsible trading. Here’s how it looks for each account size:

How Is It Calculated?

The Daily Loss Limit is a dynamic value calculated based on your previous day's closing balance.

Let's use an example to illustrate:

Rule:

The daily loss allowed is $625.

Previous Day's Close:

Let's say you ended the previous day with a balance of $26,000.

To find your breach level for the current day, you simply subtract the allowed loss from that balance:

$26,000 (Previous Close) - $625 (Daily Loss) = $25,375

This means that if your account's equity drops to $25,375 at any point during the current trading day, the system will automatically execute market orders to liquidate all of your open positions.

Due to market volatility, slippage, and execution speed, the DLL can execute late, early, at a different price than you expect, or fail to trigger.

If you want to control your risk as best as possible, you must place hard stop loss orders directly on your trades. Relying solely on the DLL can result in losing more than intended.

Top One Futures is not responsible for any losses that exceed the daily drawdown limit. Any loss beyond your allowed threshold is the trader’s responsibility.

What Happens If You Hit the Daily Drawdown?

Soft Breach:

Trading is paused for the rest of the day.

Resume Trading:

You can continue the next day, as long as your account hasn’t exceeded the Max Trailing Drawdown.

Note on Session Open:

When the new trading session starts, account reactivation is not instantaneous. System processing may take up to 5-10 minutes before trading is re-enabled.

How Is It Calculated?

The Daily Loss Limit is a dynamic value calculated based on your previous day's closing balance.

Let's use an example to illustrate:

Rule:

The daily loss allowed is $625.

Previous Day's Close:

Let's say you ended the previous day with a balance of $26,000.

To find your breach level for the current day, you simply subtract the allowed loss from that balance: $26,000 (Previous Close) - $625 (Daily Loss) = $25,375

This means that if your account's equity drops to $25,375 at any point during the current trading day, the system will automatically execute market orders to liquidate all of your open positions.

What is the Inactivity Rule?

All traders must place at least one trade every 14 calendar days to keep their account in good standing.

• This means any one trade (entry and exit) must occur within a 14-day window, starting from your most recent trade.

• The 14-day window includes weekends and holidays, not just business days.

What happens if I don’t trade for 14 days?

If no trades are placed within any 14-day period:

• Your account will be marked inactive.

• The account will receive a hard breach and be closed permanently.

• All progress and profits on the account will be lost.

Tips to Avoid Inactivity

• Set a reminder on your phone or calendar every 10–12 days.

• Even one small trade (meeting our 10-second minimum) is enough to stay active.

• Don’t wait until the last minute—give yourself a buffer.

At Top One Futures, here’s what you need to know about the maximum allowed contracts for each account size.

Maximum Allowed Contracts: Elite Evaluation, Elite Sim Funded, and Ignite

These limits are fixed. There are no contract scaling requirements on Elite Evaluation or Elite Sim Funded accounts. The maximum allowed contracts for each account size do not increase over time, so please choose your account size carefully based on your trading needs and goals.

Maximum Allowed Contracts: Elite ACCESS

Evaluation phase: you may use the full contract limit shown above from day one. There are no scaling restrictions during the evaluation.

Funded phase: contract limits scale with your account growth. See the Elite ACCESS Contract Scaling Plan below.

Maximum Allowed Contracts: Elite Daily

Evaluation phase: you may use the full contract limit shown above from day one. There are no scaling restrictions during the evaluation.

Funded phase: contract limits scale with your account growth. See the Elite Daily Contract Scaling Plan below.

Maximum Allowed Contracts: Instant Sim Funded

Contract Scaling Plans (Funded Accounts Only)

Scaling applies only to funded accounts. There are no scaling restrictions during the evaluation phase, where you can use your full contract allocation from day one.

How Scaling Works

Once your account is funded, your maximum contract size increases as your account grows. Your allowed contract size is determined by your end-of-day (EOD) closing balance and updates once per day.

Key Principles

• Scaling applies only to funded accounts

• Contract limits update once per day (EOD)

• Scaling is based on simulated profits

• Traders must stay within their allowed contract size at all times

• Intraday profits do not unlock higher tiers. Only end-of-day results count

• Contract increases apply the following trading day once your closing balance qualifies

Elite ACCESS – Contract Scaling Plan (Funded Only)

$25K Account

$50K Account

$100K Account

$150K Account

For the complete breakdown, see the Elite ACCESS Contract Scaling Plan article.

Elite Daily – Contract Scaling Plan (Funded Only)

$25K Account

$50K Account

$100K Account

$150K Account

For the complete breakdown, see the Elite Daily Contract Scaling Plan article.

Important Clarifications on Scaling

• Scaling applies per individual account

• Contract limits do not combine across multiple accounts

• Scaling is based on simulated profit only

• Limits are determined using your end-of-day balance

• Scaling does not override other risk rules, such as the Daily Loss Limit or the Trailing Drawdown

What Does "Max Contracts" Mean?

The "max contracts" rule ensures you trade within safe limits for your account. Minis are standard futures contracts, while micros are one-tenth the size of minis.

You can trade minis, micros, or a combination of both, as long as you stay within your limit.

Staying within these limits helps manage risk and keep your account compliant. It is the trader's personal responsibility to monitor and follow the clearly outlined contract scaling rules.

Exceeding Your Contract Limit

Exceeding your allowed contract limit is considered a rule violation.

If the contract scaling rules are not followed:

• Trades may be rejected or reduced

• The account may be flagged for review

• Profits generated while exceeding contract limits may be removed

• Payout requests may be deemed ineligible

Compliance with scaling rules is mandatory for payout eligibility.

These limits are in place to better protect traders from the rapid price swings and amplified risk that come with trading crypto derivatives.

What Is the Minimum Trade Time Rule?

Trades must remain open for a minimum of 10 seconds across all account types, including Elite Evaluation, Elite Sim Funded, and Instant Funded Accounts.

We understand traders may accidentally close a trade early, or may need to exit a trade sooner than 10 seconds. This rule is in place to promote strategic trading and prevent ultra-high-frequency scalping techniques that do not align with our trading model.

If our risk team sees that ultra-high-frequency trades are excessive, our risk team reserves the right to remove profits based on trades closed in under 10 seconds.

How Does This Rule Work?

• Every trade you open must remain active for at least 10 seconds before closing.

• If a trade is closed before the 10-second mark, it may not count toward progress in an evaluation account or could result in a rule violation for sim funded traders.

• This rule applies to all trading instruments and account sizes at Top One Futures.

Final Thoughts

The 10-second minimum trade rule at Top One Futures is designed to encourage traders to develop sustainable strategies while maintaining a fair trading environment. Take your time, trade with intention, and build consistency for long-term success!

Top One Futures Path To Trading Live

The following outlines your path to becoming a live trader without any need to risk your own personal funds.

Transitioning to Pre-Live / Live

After 3 successful payouts from one sim funded account, a risk manager will review your account and either:

1. Keep you in the sim funded environment for further review

2. Transition you to a live account

When transitioning to a live / pre-live account, all other accounts are temporarily disabled while the risk manager evaluates the trader's performance. Trading on sim funded accounts is not permitted during this review period.

How Do We Move Funds to Live / Pre Live?

Rather than carrying over a capped amount of sim profits as was our previous policy, traders will receive live accounts (scaling up to 5, when you're fully on live stage) in proportion to the account size traded in sim with the following parameters.

What is the Pre-Live Stage and Why Does It Exist?

Based on trader behavior and breach patterns, many successful SIM traders struggle with the psychological transitioning to live trading.

To bridge that gap, we created the Pre-Live stage. An opportunity for you to continue earning sim profits with the same benefits of the live program, while making the shift to trading fully live capital.

The Pre-Live environment allows us to:

• Assess how a trader handles live-market psychology and risk management under real-time pressure with the same starting balance as their sim-account.

• Protect firm capital from immediate exposure to high-risk behavior

• Smooth out the Live transition by evaluating traders in a realistic yet controlled setting

What Traders Gain in Pre-Live:

Trader receives all these benefits trading a Pre-Live Account:

• The same drawdown levels and contract sizing as live

• No Consistency Rule

• No Daily Loss Limit

• Daily Payouts: Payouts are available every 24-hours after the previous payout is approved. (Minimum payout = $200)

• 80/20 Profit Splits

• Withdraw-able profits are profits created in excess of your starting balance.

Contract Scaling Plan Pre Live / Live (Mini/Micos)

What Comes Next?

Once you’ve shown profitability and discipline in Pre-Live by achieving the following milestones, you will be upgraded to a brokerage account, where real capital is deployed and you’ll begin trading under full Live conditions.

Breach Policy

Should the Trader breach their Pre-Live or Live account, there is a mandatory 3-week cooling off period before new sim accounts are available to be purchased and Trader may purchase and trade one sim-funded account at a time.

Pre-Live Evaluation Purchase & Progression Rules

While in the Pre-Live stage, you are allowed to purchase and trade on one Evaluation account only.

However, during this stage:

• Trading is only allowed on ONE Evaluation account (no sim funded)

• No payouts can be requested from newly purchased Evaluation accounts

• Progression to a Funded account is restricted until you exit Pre-Live/Live

Moving from Pre-Live to Live

Traders will start with one (1) live account. Based on the number of qualifying sim accounts, traders will receive another live account each time the previously granted live account reaches the following balance:

Live Payout Policy

• No Payout Caps - Unlimited Withdrawals

• No Consistency Rule

• No Daily Loss Limit

• Daily Payouts: Payouts are available every 24-hours after the previous payout is approved. (Minimum payout = $200)

• Profit Split: When a trader is moved to a live account, their profit split will go from 90/10 to 80/20

• Withdraw-able profits are profits created in excess of your starting balance.

• Scaling up to 5 accounts.

Breach Policy

Should the Trader breach their Pre-Live or Live account, there is a mandatory 3-week cooling off period before new sim accounts are available to be purchased and Trader may purchase and trade one sim-funded account at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many payouts do I need before I can go live?

For most accounts, you need 3 successful payouts.

Elite Daily accounts are the exception and require 5 successful payouts.

In some cases a trader may be transitioned to a Live Account sooner, but the numbers above are the standard requirement.

If I get selected to move to live, can I choose to stay in Sim Funding?

No. If you are selected to move to live, your options are to begin trading live or to close your Sim Funded account. You may not voluntarily close your live account and move back to Sim. Sim trading should be seen as a gateway to trading live, having your consistency rule removed, receiving unlimited payouts, and scaling your capital. Any attempts to intentionally breach accounts to remain in Sim is strictly prohibited and may result in having trading privileges revoked.

What are the Benefits of trading a Live Account versus Sim?

If you are selected to move to trading live, you have the ability to earn an unlimited income with no withdrawal limits as a professional trader. Not only will your consistency rule be removed, you’ll have the ability to withdraw profits every 24 hours.

How long does it take to receive my live account?

Once you’ve been approved to move to live, your live account will be set up with the broker in 2-3 weeks.

What is the minimum withdrawal?

The minimum withdrawal amount is $200.

Can I withdraw from my starting balance?

No. Withdrawals are available from profits created on top of your starting balance.

Can I purchase or continue to trade an Evaluation account or Sim Funded Account if I’m trading in a live account?

No, once you are trading live, you may not purchase additional accounts unless you are in the Pre-Live stage.

If you are in the Pre-Live stage, you may purchase and trade on one Evaluation account. However:

• You will not be eligible for payouts on that Evaluation account

• You will not be able to upgrade to a SIM Funded account while in Pre-Live

What will happen to my Sim Funded Accounts when I'm in a live account?

If you have an active account when you transition to a Live Account, that account will be closed.

What if I lose my live account?

Should you lose your Live Account, the risk management team will determine the appropriate next steps for the trader, based on their trading activities across all accounts associated with their profile.

What are the costs in the Live Account?

There are no account or platform costs in live, but as a live trader, you are responsible for the professional market data. You will need to subscribe to receive Professional Data Subscription(s). Top One Futures does not make a profit on these data fees. Our trading platform charges us these fees that are passed along to you as the trader.

• CME Exchange - $140/mo

• NYMEX Exchange - $140/mo

• COMEX Exchange - $140/mo

• CBOT Exchange - $140/mo
  (Most traders chose one exchange, but you may subscribe to multiple.)

Am I trading real capital once I go live?

Yes, Top One Futures does provide access to real capital, but most traders will first be placed in a pre-live trading environment that mirrors their Sim Funded account conditions. This stage is designed to validate consistent, disciplined performance.

Top One Futures Prohibited Trading Strategies & Platform Integrity

At Top One Futures, our mission is to build a sustainable, secure, and trustworthy trading environment for serious traders who value opportunity and integrity. We are deeply committed to maintaining the long-term viability of our firm and the safety of our trading ecosystem.

To uphold these standards, we leverage advanced fraud detection technologies and robust compliance monitoring systems. Any trader found to be violating our rules or exploiting platform vulnerabilities will have their account breached and all associated profits forfeited. Any violations of these rules during the Elite Evaluation Phase might result in either a retake Evaluation being issued or a full breach of the account, depending on the severity of the violation.

🚫 Prohibited Trading Practices

The following activities are strictly forbidden across all Top One Futures accounts, regardless of account type or stage:

1. Exploiting System, Pricing, or Latency Errors

Any attempt to take advantage of errors, delays, mispricings, or lags in the broker's feed, the charting platform, or any associated systems will result in immediate account breach. This includes latency arbitrage and price manipulation.

2. Use of Insider or Non-Public Information

Trading based on information not available to the general public, including insider news or confidential financial disclosures, is prohibited.

3. Front-Running

Placing trades with the intent to benefit from anticipated price movement based on trades executed elsewhere (e.g., in another account or at another firm) is not allowed.

4. Hedging Between Accounts

You may not hedge one account against another, whether within Top One Futures or across other prop firms or brokers. All trades must reflect independent trading strategies without cross-account hedging.

5. Unauthorized Account Access

Only the registered account owner is permitted to trade. Allowing friends, family, or third parties to access or trade on your account violates this policy.

6. Minimum Trade Duration (10-Second Rule)

To protect against ultra-high-frequency scalping and promote responsible trading:

• All trades must remain open longer than 10 seconds.

  • 10.00 seconds = violation, 10.01 seconds = acceptable.

• Closing any portion of a trade before 10 seconds violates this rule.

• Adding to a trade (e.g., scaling in) within 10 seconds is permitted.

Occasional minor violations are tolerable, but if:

• anywhere close to 50% or more of your total and/or withdrawable profits

• OR, anywhere close to 50% or more of your individual trades

violate this rule, all profits associated with these trades will be removed.

7. Trading That Risks Broker Relationships

Trading strategies or behaviors that may harm our broker relationships—such as abnormal flow, slippage targeting, or mass quote stuffing—are grounds for account closure.

8. Trading That May Create Regulatory Concerns

Any activity that could cause regulatory exposure for Top One Futures or our liquidity partners is not tolerated.

9. Externally Marketed Evaluation-Passing Strategies

Using any publicly available or purchased system advertised to help traders “pass Evaluation” is not allowed. All strategies must be developed and executed by the trader.

10. Rolling, Churning, or Gambling Accounts

Creating multiple evaluation accounts in a short period and using a batch-style approach, such as intentionally letting most accounts fail while focusing on passing just one, is strictly prohibited. Excessive account creation within a short timeframe, especially when done repeatedly, is considered manipulative and will be flagged by our systems.

We do not support gambling behavior. This includes consistently breaching accounts within 24-48 hours of purchase and then immediately repurchasing new accounts, indicative of toxic trading strategies. Such actions are not indicative of consistency or skill but instead reflect reckless trading strategies intended to exploit asymmetric risk at scale. Traders engaging in this type of behavior are not aligned with our long-term vision and may be permanently disqualified.

11. Arbitrage with Other Firms

Attempting to gain an advantage by arbitraging trades across Top One Futures and another firm or platform is prohibited.

12. Automated Trading / Expert Advisors (EAs)

Use of any automated trading system, script, bot, Expert Advisor (EA), or high-frequency execution tool is strictly forbidden. All trades must be entered manually or semi-manually by the trader.

13. Copy Trading or Group Trading

Each trader must operate independently. The following are not allowed:

• Executing the same trades as another person or account

• Coordinated trading with relatives or friends

• Following signal services, Telegram groups, Discord calls, or any shared trade alert system

  Note on Copy Trading Between Firms:
  We understand that some traders now use third-party platforms to mirror their trades across multiple firms. While Top One Futures does not prohibit copy trading between your own accounts at different firms, all trade decisions must originate from activity on our platform. As long as your trades begin from your Top One Futures account and reflect your own strategy and discretion, this is acceptable. However, any behavior resembling signal following, group trading, or mirroring someone else’s trades remains strictly prohibited.

Top One Futures expects unique strategies per trader, not correlated or synchronized actions.

14. Intentional Account Breaching (sim Farming)

Traders may not attempt to deliberately fail or breach funded accounts to avoid transitioning to live trading, remain on simulated accounts, or game system protections.

15. Maximum Funded Accounts Per Household

We allow a maximum of three (3) Instant Sim or Elite Sim funded accounts per household at the 100K or 150K sizes, or a maximum of five (5) at the 25K or 50K sizes, regardless of whether they belong to different individuals.

This means that no more than three (100K or 150K sizes) or five (25K or 50K sizes) Instant / elite sim funded accounts are allowed at the same time.

✅ Our Philosophy – Fairness for Serious Traders

Top One Futures is dedicated to supporting disciplined, honest, and skilled traders. We strive to offer:

💬 Questions or Concerns?

At Top One Futures, we implement a drawdown lock to help traders protect their profits as they progress in their sim funded accounts. This feature allows traders to build their account without worrying about their drawdown continuing to trail indefinitely, providing more stability and security as they withdraw funds.

When Does My Drawdown Lock Based on Profits Achieved?

Once you reach the amount of your total drawdown in profits plus $100, the drawdown locks in at your starting balance and no longer trails with your account growth.

Lock Upon Payout

Upon trader's first payout, your maximum trailing drawdown will also lock in at the starting balance +$100. From the moment you make a payout, the drawdown no longer trails with your account growth, regardless of how much you continue to grow your account. Click Here to read the full FAQ to understand this rule.

Final Thoughts

The drawdown lock at Top One Futures is designed to reward profitable traders while maintaining responsible risk management. By locking in at $100 above the starting balance after a payout, traders can protect their earnings and continue trading with confidence.
