Silver, Bronze and Copper use a 5% daily drawdown. Diamond Instant has no daily drawdown (only a total drawdown limit).Daily drawdown includes both open and closed PnL; breaching it can switch the account into read-only mode and close trades. 3–5 Maximum Daily DrawdownEightcap Challenges applies a balance-based daily drawdown rule calculated from the previous day’s account balance snapshot (Previous Day Balance × Limit%). Your account’s intraday equity loss must not exceed this daily limit.One Phase: 4% daily drawdown (Assessment and Payout Stages).Two Phase: 5% daily drawdown (Assessment, Qualification and Payout Stages).Day Trader: No daily drawdown; risk is managed via fixed maximum drawdown thresholds tied to the selected timeframe and multiplier.

Trading Permissions
News Trading News trading is not stated as fully banned, but RebelsFunding recommends avoiding major releases (NFP, GDP, FOMC) and its terms prohibit opening excessive trades when significant news/macro events are planned. News trading is allowed on all account types. Traders may open and close positions during high‑impact news releases. Trading during major news events is restricted: you cannot place trades within 10 minutes before or after high-impact events (per FXStreet). Trading inside the window is treated as a soft breach that triggers a warning and removal of any profits made from those trades.
Weekend Trades RebelsFunding states that cryptocurrency trading is closed during weekends on RF-Trader for maintenance and platform stability reasons. Other markets follow their normal market hours (typically weekday sessions). Overnight and weekend holding is allowed without restrictions. Weekend trading is allowed. The platform supports 24/7 trading, including the ability to manage positions over the weekend.
Copy Trading Copy trading is not presented as a supported feature. Strategies that hedge across linked accounts or other companies are prohibited, and trade splitting across correlated markets is treated as one “real trade” and may be flagged as suspicious behavior. Copy trading and mirroring strategies across accounts are prohibited. Copy trading or mirroring another person’s trades is prohibited and may result in profit removal or account termination. Copying between your own accounts is allowed only if all accounts are registered under the same email address.
EA Allowed Expert Advisors/robots are not allowed on the RF-Trader training platform; RebelsFunding states it is not possible to run any EA on its training trading platform (manual trading is preferred). Expert Advisors (EAs) and automated trading tools are not allowed. Expert Advisors (EAs) and indicators are permitted, but prohibited strategy types (including martingale, grid, tick trading, arbitrage variants, gap trading and account management) are monitored and can trigger violations—especially during the Payout Stage.
