Trading rules

What Goat Funded Trader lets you do on its accounts, taken from its rules and FAQ pages.

News trading
Allowed with limits
News trading is allowed in the challenge and funded stages, but any trade opened or closed within 5 minutes of a red-folder release can keep at most 1% of the initial balance in profit; the excess is removed without a breach.
Expert advisors
Allowed with limits
Only EAs the trader developed are allowed, and GFT can ask for the source code. Purchased, shared or pass-the-challenge EAs, trade-copier EAs, HFT systems and gold arbitrage EAs are banned, and VPS hosting is not allowed.
Copy trading
Allowed with limits
Copying is allowed only between your own GFT accounts through the GOAT Trade Copier in the dashboard. Copying external accounts (even your own), signal providers or other traders, or using any other copier, is prohibited.
Overnight holding
Allowed
Weekend holding
Allowed with limits
Weekend holding is allowed. On funded accounts, profit from trades opened in the last 3 market hours on Friday and closed in the first 3 hours on Monday is removed.

Rules to read before you buy

Daily loss is measured from the higher of balance or equity at the 5 PM EST reset; trading days also run from 5 PM EST.
Goat Guard: on funded accounts from challenges, a combined floating loss of 2% of the initial size cuts the split to 50% the first time and closes the account the second time. On instant and Blitz accounts the floating-loss limit is an immediate breach.
Using more than 80% of available margin on one trade idea counts as all-or-nothing gambling.
Payout requests must cover the full profit with no open trades or pending orders.
VPNs, VPSs, proxies and other hosting services may not be used while trading.
MT5 and cTrader are not offered to US clients; TradeLocker, Match-Trader and Volumetrica are.
A reset can be bought within 14 days of a breach to restart from the breached phase, once per phase.
No swap-free accounts are offered.

Inactivity: At least one trade every 30 days on evaluation and funded accounts.

How the drawdown works

Static (1-Step, 2-Step Standard, 2-Step GOAT): The loss limit is fixed at a set distance below your starting balance and never moves.
Intraday trailing (GOAT Blitz, Instant GOAT, Instant HERO, Instant Premium): The loss limit follows your highest intraday equity in real time, including open profit that you later give back.

Consistency rules

1-Step: None
2-Step Standard: None
2-Step GOAT: None
GOAT Blitz: Funded only: best day must be no more than 15% of profit in the payout period
Instant GOAT: Best day must be no more than 15% of profit in the payout period
Instant HERO: Best day must be no more than 15% of profit in the payout period
Instant Premium: None
