FXIFY

FXIFY – Trading Conditions

FXIFY keeps things relatively straightforward. The rules are clear, the structure is consistent, and most of what you need to know is actually written where you can find it.

Which, in this industry, is surprising.

Prohibited Strategies

Let's start with what they don't want to see. The list is long, but reasonable:

• HFT

• Reverse Hedging

• Group Hedging

• Account Management

• Latency Arbitrage

• Order Book Spamming

• Herd Trading

• Statistical Arbitrage

• Gambling Behavior — YOLO strategies, impulsive/emotional trading
•  

They actually wrote YOLO in their terms and conditions. Which means enough traders tried it to make it worth mentioning. Respect the honesty, if nothing else.

IP & Device Policy

• Different IPs and devices → completely fine
• Multiple accounts sharing the same IP → may trigger a review
• Multiple accounts sharing the same CID (computer ID) → raises concerns
•  

You can trade from your laptop, your desktop & your holiday villa. Just make sure nobody else is trading your account from the same machine. FXIFY checks the computer ID. The computer always talks.

Weekend Holding

• One Phase, Two Phase, Three Phase → Allowed
• Instant accounts → Not allowed. Positions close automatically before Friday market close.
•  

So yes, you can hold over the weekend. Just not on the account type that doesn't let you hold over the weekend. Read the label before you open the box.

Performance Protect

FXIFY has a feature called Performance Protect — designed to protect funded traders from losing their account due to a drawdown breach.

It's a safety net most firms don't offer. Details HERE

Copy Trading

• Between your own FXIFY accounts → Allowed
• From external accounts into FXIFY → Allowed, but you must provide at least 1 month of trading history in HTML format showing your name
• From third parties → Prohibited
•  

You can copy yourself. You can copy your own verified track record. You cannot copy your friend who "definitely has a system."

Expert Advisors (EAs)

This one requires attention because it's not a simple yes or no.

• One Phase, Two Phase, Three Phase (MT5) → Allowed, but requires pre-approval from support. You'll need to submit:

•  
• EA description
• Timeframe it trades on
• Average holding time
• Trading pairs used
• Take profit target in pips
• Whether it uses HFT: Yes/No
• Whether it involves Latency Arbitrage: Yes/No

On:

• Instant accounts → Prohibited entirely
• Lightning Challenge → Also prohibited
•  

So EA's are welcome at FXIFY. They just want to meet it first.

Think of it as bringing a plus-one to a party — technically allowed, but you should probably mention it in advance.

Inactivity Rule

60 days without a trade → account breach. No warnings. No gentle nudges.

To be fair — 60 days is generous. If you haven't touched your funded account in two months, the market probably wasn't the problem.

Lightning Challenge — Special Rules

This one runs differently from everything else:

• 7-day time limit, 5 trading days
• Stop loss mandatory — first two trades without one are a soft breach, third is a hard breach
• 30% consistency rule — one day's profit can't exceed 30% of total profit
•  

So if you have one exceptional day and then do nothing — that exceptional day might not count the way you think it does. Consistency isn't just a virtue here. It's a contractual requirement. This only applies to Lightning Challenges

News Trading

Depends on which account you're on.

• One Phase, Two Phase, Three Phase → fully allowed, no restrictions
• Instant Standard & Instant Lite → restricted 5 minutes before and after high-impact news
• Lightning Challenge → same 5-minute window restriction
•  

The nuance: holding through the news is fine. It's the clicking during the chaos that they'd rather you didn't do. Any profits made inside that 10-minute window simply don't count. Most companies treat this as a hard-breach and close down your account.

Final Take

FXIFY is one of the more transparent firms in the space. Rules are accessible, structure is logical, and the differences between account types are clearly documented — which is rarer than it should be.

The variety of account types means there's something for most trading styles. It also means you should spend five minutes figuring out which account you're actually on before you start trading.

Not because they're hiding anything. Just because "Instant Lite" and "Two Phase Classic" live by different rules. And knowing which game you're playing is generally... a good start.
