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.

Commissions

Commissions

Hola Prime’s trading rules focus on risk limits and payout rules; a single universal commission schedule is not centralized in the trading-rules document. Trading costs (spreads/commissions/swaps where applicable) should be verified directly inside the selected platform specifications and the firm’s transparency/pricing materials, as costs may differ by platform and instrument.

Tradable Assets

FX, Commodities, Indices, Crypto, Futures

News & Event Trading

Pro models: News trading is allowed during challenge phases, but funded-stage (Hola Prime Account) trading can be restricted around high-impact news (e.g., no opening/closing/modifying within a defined window such as 5 minutes before/after for affected instruments).

Prime models: The firm positions Prime accounts as more flexible for swing/news styles (plan-specific).

Direct Account: News trading is not allowed.

Payouts & Profit Split

Payout Frequency

Payout Frequency

Hola Prime offers multiple payout structures depending on the plan selected at checkout and/or the account type.

  • Cycle-based payouts (where offered): Weekly (65% split), Bi-weekly (80% split), and Monthly (95% split). Once chosen, the payout cycle cannot be changed.
  • Bi-weekly/monthly profitability criteria (plan-dependent): Bi-weekly cycles may require a minimum of 3 profitable trading days within a 14-day period; monthly cycles may require 7 profitable trading days within a 30-day period (a profitable day is typically defined as at least 0.5% net profit of initial balance from closed trades).
  • On-demand payouts (eligible plans): 80% split subject to a 40% consistency score and a minimum profit threshold (commonly 2% of initial balance).
  • Direct Account: Payout requests are on a bi-weekly cadence by default (80% split), with an optional upgrade to 90% via add-on.

Evaluation & Account Rules

Challenges

Hola Prime’s Forex funding lineup is centered around three core paths:

  • Pro Challenges: Higher leverage evaluation models (including 1-step and 2-step) that award a Hola Prime Account after passing the applicable profit targets and risk checks.
  • Prime Challenges: A lower-leverage evaluation track (Prime leverage set) designed for traders who prefer tighter exposure, with plan-dependent flexibility around swing/news conditions.
  • Direct Account: An instant-funded model with a strict trailing drawdown profile and bi-weekly payout cadence.

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 Policy

Challenge 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 Rule

Hola 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 Rules

Hola 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).

  • Standard challenge consistency: Up to 25% on applicable plans (biggest winning day must not exceed 25% of total profit).
  • On-demand payout consistency (eligible plans): Up to 40% consistency score plus minimum profit thresholds.
  • Direct Account: Stricter consistency profile (up to 15% consistency score) and additional buffer considerations because of the trailing drawdown model.

Metals Leverage Max 20

Payout Processing Time (Days)

Payout Processing

Hola 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

  • Single trade-idea risk cap (funded/direct only): Loss on a single trade idea must not exceed 2% of the initial account size; breach is treated as a hard breach.
  • Inactivity: Accounts inactive for 30 consecutive calendar days are permanently suspended.
  • Allocation limit: Maximum total active funded allocation across all Hola Prime Accounts (including those obtained via challenges and direct accounts) is capped at $500,000.
  • Account merging: Not allowed during challenge/evaluation; permitted for Hola Prime Accounts up to $500k overall, subject to same evaluation model and operational conditions (no open trades; not mid-cycle).
  • KYC + agreement workflow: The firm may require KYC document upload and contract signing during/after passing and before account issuance and/or payouts.
  • Operational restrictions by plan: News and weekend/market-close permissions vary by program (e.g., Pro funded accounts may require positions closed ahead of weekend close; Direct Account restricts news and weekend holding).
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.
