All Futures traders must follow TradersYard's trading and risk-management rules.
Overnight Holding
Overnight holding is not allowed.
All open positions must be closed before the daily reset at EST/EDT 17:00.
News Trading
News Trading is not allowed.
Trading is restricted from 10 minutes before until 5 minutes after a high-impact news release. During this period, traders cannot open or close positions, and pending orders including Stop Loss and Take Profit orders cannot be executed by the system.
Scalping Profit Cap
No more than 30% of your Total Closed Profit may come from trades held for less than 10 seconds.

Profit above the 30% threshold is deducted.
Example: If Total Closed Profit is $10,000 and $4,000 came from trades under 10 seconds, the permitted amount is $3,000. The additional $1,000 is deducted.
