Hola Prime
Hola Prime is a global proprietary trading firm offering Pro and Prime evaluation challenges plus a Direct (instant-funded) account, with multi-platform CFD access (MT4/MT5, cTrader, DXtrade, MatchTrader, TradeLocker), multiple payout-cycle options (including on-demand structures on eligible plans), and a milestone-based scaling plan designed to grow successful traders up to $4,000,000.
Program Type & Scaling
• 1-Step Pro Challenge (10% profit target, 3% daily loss on previous day’s closing balance, 6% max overall loss, FX leverage up to 1:100)
• 2-Step Pro Challenge (two phases, 5% daily loss on previous day’s closing balance (4% for $200k), 8% max overall loss, FX leverage up to 1:100; payout cycles include bi-weekly/monthly and on-demand options on eligible structures)
• Prime Challenge (Prime leverage profile: FX 1:30, indices 1:5, metals 1:10, crypto 1:1; positioned for more controlled risk and swing-style trading, with more flexible weekend/news permissions depending on plan)
• Direct Account (instant-funded model; 5% trailing max drawdown with a 3% daily loss; bi-weekly payouts with 80% split, upgradeable to 90% via add-on)
• Scaling plan with 4-month milestones and continued growth targets, ultimately scaling up to $4,000,000
Scaling Plan
Hola Prime runs a milestone scaling plan (applies to Hola Prime Accounts) built around 4-month performance cycles.
- Core scaling criteria: trade for a minimum of 4 months, achieve at least 10% total net simulated profit (with at least 2 profitable months), receive at least 2 payouts during the period, and keep a positive account balance at the time of scaling.
- 1st scaling (after 4 months): +25% increase on initial balance.
- 2nd scaling (after 8 months): Alpha Prime Membership triggers a total +40% increase (25% base + 15% bonus).
- 3rd scaling and beyond: +50% increase on initial balance each successful scaling cycle, continuing until the program’s stated $4,000,000 scaling cap is reached.
Daily Loss Limit
Maximum Daily Loss
Hola Prime uses percentage-based daily loss limits that reset daily at 17:00 EST (server time) and are calculated from the previous day’s closing balance (with equity/balance breach checks intraday).
- 1-Step Pro (Challenge + Hola Prime Account): 3% daily loss (previous day closing balance).
- 2-Step Pro (Phase 1/2 + Hola Prime Account): 5% daily loss of the previous day’s closing balance (4% daily loss for $200k accounts).
- Direct Account (Hola Prime Account): 3% daily loss (previous day closing balance).
Maximum Overall Loss
Maximum Overall Loss
Overall loss models vary by program:
- 1-Step Pro: 6% maximum overall loss based on initial balance (static overall loss limit).
- 2-Step Pro: 8% maximum overall loss based on initial balance (static overall loss limit) across phases and on the resulting Hola Prime Account.
- Direct Account: 5% trailing maximum drawdown from the initial balance, tracking the account’s high watermark until specific locking conditions are met; falling below the trailing line breaches the account.
Drawdown Model
Drawdown Model
Hola Prime combines a dynamic daily loss limit (based on the previous day’s closing balance) with program-specific overall drawdown models.
- Pro models: Daily loss is dynamic by previous-day close; overall loss is typically a static percentage of initial balance (varies by 1-step vs 2-step).
- Direct Account: Uses a classic trailing drawdown mechanism (high-watermark tracking). This structure can force tighter profit protection as the trailing threshold rises with new equity highs.

Prime models: The firm positions Prime accounts as more flexible for swing/news styles (plan-specific).
Direct Account: News trading is not allowed.

Evaluation & Account Rules
| Challenges | Hola Prime’s Forex funding lineup is centered around three core paths:
Across programs, traders select payout-cycle options where applicable, must follow consistency requirements, and are subject to allocation limits and rule enforcement via the firm’s risk team. |
Trading Permissions
| Weekend Trades | Pro models: Weekend holding is allowed during challenge phases, but funded-stage Pro accounts generally require positions to be closed ahead of weekend market close (auto-closure procedures may apply). Prime models: Prime accounts are marketed as more swing-friendly and can allow weekend holding (plan-specific). Direct Account: Weekend holding is not allowed. |
| Copy Trading | Copy trading is permitted only between accounts personally owned by the same trader. Copying third-party trades or group trading patterns can be treated as a rule violation. Additionally, identically traded strategies across multiple funded accounts that exceed the firm’s maximum allocation thresholds can result in suspensions. |
| EA Allowed | Expert Advisors (EAs) and algorithmic trading are permitted in principle, but traders remain responsible for ensuring their automation does not trigger prohibited trading practices, group-trading flags, or allocation-limit breaches (e.g., multiple traders using the same third-party EA settings may be denied/terminated under the firm’s allocation and strategy duplication controls). |
| Prohibited Strategies | Hola Prime enforces a prohibited-practices framework that includes (at minimum) prohibited “gambling behavior,” hard-breach triggers for exceeding drawdown/risk caps, and violations of plan-specific rules (news windows, weekend handling, and other operational restrictions). Multiple registrations used to bypass allocation limits and identically traded strategies exceeding allowed allocation thresholds can also lead to suspension/termination. |
Other Details
| Refund Policy (Code) | Refund PolicyChallenge fee refund (pass-only): When a trader successfully passes an eligible Hola Prime Challenge, the firm discloses a 100% challenge fee refund that is paid back automatically in four equal installments (25% with each of the first four payouts). Failed challenges, breached accounts, or rule violations are generally not refundable; Direct Account fees are not described as pass-refunded in the challenge-refund mechanism and should be treated as non-refundable unless explicitly stated in the product’s terms at checkout. |
| 3 Percent Rule (Notes) | 3 Percent RuleHola Prime does not position a universal per-trade “3% rule.” Risk is primarily controlled through the account-level daily loss limits (often 3% or 5% depending on plan) and overall drawdown constraints. On funded/direct stages, the firm also enforces a stricter risk constraint on single trade ideas (see Risk Rules), which effectively discourages high-risk sizing and martingale-style escalation. |
| Consistency Rule (Notes) | Consistency RulesHola Prime enforces “best day” style consistency requirements that cap how much of total profits can come from one trading day (calculated as Biggest Winning Day / Total Profit).
|
| Indices Leverage Max | 10 |
| Metals Leverage Max | 20 |
| Days to First Payout | 7 |
| Payout Processing Time (Days) | Payout ProcessingHola Prime markets “1-hour payouts.” Payout requests are submitted through the client/dashboard flow and are typically processed rapidly once approved; actual arrival time depends on the chosen method (bank wires can take longer than crypto rails even if released quickly by the firm). |
| Account Merge Allowed | No |
| Max Accounts per Trader | There is no limit on the number of challenges a trader can purchase, but the maximum total active funded allocation across all Hola Prime Accounts (including challenge-earned and direct accounts) is capped at $500,000. Merging is not allowed in the evaluation stage, but is permitted for Hola Prime Accounts up to the $500k cap (same evaluation model, no open trades, and not mid-cycle). |
| KYC Required | No |
| KYC Stage | KYC is required as part of Hola Prime’s onboarding and risk workflow. Traders may be asked to upload KYC documents and sign agreements during/after passing evaluation (and prior to funded account issuance and/or payouts), with documents and contracts typically handled inside the dashboard “Agreements” flow. |
| Restricted Countries | Afghanistan, Belarus, Burundi, China, Cuba, Congo, Sudan, North Korea, Yemen |
| Scaling Plan Availability | No |
| Other Risk Rules | Other Risk Rules
|
| Spread Quality | Hola Prime advertises “tight spreads” across supported instruments and platforms. As with any CFD environment, spreads can widen during low-liquidity periods, session transitions, and major news events. |
| Slippage Policy | Execution is platform-based and market-conditions dependent; positive or negative slippage can occur, especially during volatility spikes. Traders should also respect plan-specific restrictions around high-impact news and weekend/market-close handling where applicable, as violating those rules can result in breach actions. |
| Martingale Allowed | Martingale-style position escalation is treated as “gambling behavior” under risk governance and is incompatible with the firm’s funded-stage risk limits (including the single trade-idea loss cap). Strategies that systematically increase exposure after losses risk violation and termination. |
| Lot Size Limits | Hola Prime does not publish a single universal maximum lot size across all instruments in the trading-rules summary. Instead, position sizing is constrained via daily/overall drawdown limits, consistency requirements, and (on funded/direct stages) the 2% single trade-idea loss cap. Excessive exposure that resembles gambling behavior can be actioned by risk controls. |
