Do trades have to be closed before the weekend?

These are the general prohibited trading methods that apply to the 2x Evaluation and No Evaluation Challenges. However, the 1X Evaluation has additional specific conditions, including but not limited to rules regarding News Trading and holding trades over the weekend. For more detailed information on these specific conditions, please refer to the dedicated section "What is the 1X Evaluation Challenge" for the 1X Evaluation rules.

No, trades can remain open over the weekend. There's no obligation to close trades before the weekend, allowing for more trading flexibility. However, please be aware that weekend gaps may lead to reaching maximum loss limits and triggering hard breaches, resulting in challenge failure.
