No, there is no limit, customers can use free trial accounts multiple times.
No, free trial accounts, as the name suggests, is free of cost. Demo accounts are the challenge accounts for which customers must pay an amount. Free trial accounts are not challenge accounts. Demo accounts have different levels and targets, whereas trial accounts do not have those. Passing a free trial account never guarantees access to our demo or live accounts. There is no reward for passing or performing well in a free trial account.
Yes, you can enroll for multiple challenges or accounts at once. You will have to pay for each challenge / account, and the targets must be achieved for each challenge / account separately. These cannot be combined. Traders can’t combine their demo and live accounts as they fall under different categories. Hence, kindly read our terms of service (TOS) to understand our other prohibited trading practices while having multiple accounts so you know what is not permissible.
We aim to offer our clients complete autonomy to trade however they see fit. However, some methods are outright prohibited to protect the interests of the client and the company. Some of these practices are - keeping trade lot sizes equal to the leverage and holding trades during news releases. It is also forbidden to engage in following trading practices -
and other trading practices that are intended to exploit trading platform inefficiencies.
Account termination will occur for trading, copy trading, or account administration by a third-party vendor. This means that no payout will be issued as well. Our ideology is to have talented and efficient traders on board. As we are investing a tremendous amount of capital, we will not be lenient with traders who we think have used unfair trading practices. To know about the other forbidden strategies, refer to our terms of service (TOS).
Slippage occurs when you place an order with a very high lot size and it simply refers to the difference in price at which the trade is executed and the expected or the requested price. This also happens when the market is highly volatile. Hence, due to the high lot size, sometimes the order gets closed at the nearest price.
In the prop trading space, Equitio provides traders with competitive leverage choices which simply means high-risk/ high-reward strategy that lets them optimize trading potential while exercising caution with risk management. The offered leverage ratios give traders the ability to open or gain exposure to bigger trade positions in an instrument and hence take advantage of market opportunities and optimize the strategies they employ. Traders also have the option to increase their leverage by purchasing the "increased leverage" add-on before starting a challenge.
Yes, hedging is permissible within an account. Hedging is a risk management strategy which helps in offsetting losses by reducing the margin on a trading platform by simply taking the opposite position in an underlying asset. However, hedging positions across multiple platforms is a violation of our rules.
Customers can trade forex, metals, energies, indices, and crypto with us.
No, we do not offer free retries. We give our customers all the time in the world to reach their targets. We also advise our customers not to rush.

Customers are informed about this through email. When anyone registers with us, we assume they have read our terms of service and policies, so we take it very seriously when any of them are violated. If you have not read our TOS and policies efficiently, you can find them on our website.
No, we do not want our customers to rush or panic. We want our customers to trade at their own pace and comfort. Hence, we do not have a tab on the maximum number of trading days.
No, we expect our traders to be sincere and passionate about trading. Hence, they do not require any deadline for the above-mentioned accounts. They can trade at their own pace, comfortably.
Our goal at Equitio is to provide our traders with the lowest spread possible.
Trading must be legitimate, and users cannot engage in activities incompatible with how an actual market operates. Additionally, traders need to use appropriate risk management strategies. Any trading strategy is acceptable as long as it doesn't impede lawful trading, take advantage of activities meant to harm us, abuse our account or the assessment process in any manner, or violate any of the prohibited trading practices.
You can be inactive on your account for 30 days; if it crosses the 30-day threshold, the account gets disabled automatically. So, please leave your account at most 30 days to avoid repercussions.

Not necessary, it is up to the traders if they want to close or keep their positions open overnight.
Yes, news trading is permissible on our platform.
A stop-loss is a helpful tool that helps in managing losses. It automatically closes the trade per the set stop-loss, i.e., traders tell the platform to close their trade once they suffer a particular loss through any specific trade. It is not mandatory to put stop-loss while trading; it is entirely up to the traders if they want to do it, as per their strategy.
Not when your account is activated, but rather when you make your first trade, is when your trading cycle starts. Consequently, your trading cycle will begin on Wednesday rather than Monday if you open your account on Monday and place your first trade on Wednesday. This policy is valid for both our live and demo accounts. It also holds true for each trading cycle for both kinds of accounts.
We allow our customers to trade in whichever way they like and without any limitations. The preferred trading style or strategy is unrestricted as long as it is used legally and in line with current market conditions. A couple of trading activities are not permitted on our platform because of the nature of those activities. We do not feel that they are genuine or morally right. To know more about such activities and the associated consequences, kindly read our terms of service (TOS).
We provide our traders with robust features and capabilities by giving them access to the most efficient platform in the market. We have our own platform which aims towards improving our traders’ trading skills by offering a large variety of indicators, real-time market data, and sophisticated charting tools. We recommend our traders to select the platform that best suits their trading preferences so that their trading experience is smooth.
Our demo and live accounts customers are assigned a percentage as their maximum loss limit. If their equity reaches a value which shows that they have reached their maximum loss limit, then, their account with us gets shut down.
Performing well in a free trial account does not make you eligible for a demo or a live account. To get a demo or a live account, you must enroll for them separately.
We understand that our traders would like to trade as per their comfort, and we respect it. Hence, we do not have any time limit set for the evaluation.
We have a number of trading tools for our traders and using them would not incur any cost to the traders. They are free!
The Equitio evaluation process describes how a trader would be eligible to get a live account with Equitio. Equitio has both 1-2 step and instant funding challenges. Each stage would be having certain parameters that a trader had to be mindful of, while trading. A trader would be eligible to withdraw profits once they’ve successfully become our funded trader.
Trading objectives refers to the parameters that a trader needs to keep in mind while participating in any challenge. At Equitio, trading objectives specify the minimum number of days a trader has to trade, the leverage that they will be getting, profit target that they have to meet, maximum loss that they are allowed to incur, their profit split etc. Each step of the evaluation process would have different objectives and if the trader passes each step of the challenge without violating any parameter, then, they will become an Equitio trader and will bag a live account from us and obtain profits.
Add-Ons are our USP! We made an assessment of a lot of funded trader challenges and while formulating ours we thought of simplifying the challenges. What better way to do it other than having add-ons? Equitio’s add-ons would enable a trader in increasing their account leverage and profit split, holding trades over the weekend and accessing payouts sooner than ever. All these add-ons are offered at a very low price so that it is not pocket-pinching and is profitable for the traders.
Equitio offers instant funded accounts where users can start trading from day one without the need of any evaluation. More details about the instant funded accounts can be found on the website.
Traders must go to the client section and submit a payout request. Traders will be eligible for payouts only after their accounts are reviewed. Equitio takes a period of 2+ weeks to process payouts. Payouts are processed on the 15th of every month. There is a 15 days waiting period between requesting and processing a payout as once a payout is requested, the user's performance is reviewed and, if deemed fit, the payout is issued in few hours.
Customers must also note that payouts are not processed automatically after the trading cycle ends. Some reasons that could prevent or delay the payout process include any red flags on account, suspicion, and detection of any illicit activity, failure to confirm the payout address, and public holidays.
Once the payout is initiated from our end, the customer receives a confirmation mail. Any actual arrival of the payment at the customer’s end will depend on the method of payment chosen.
You can find the refund policy on our website.
The company charges no additional or hidden fees. The company only takes a one-time payment for enrollment in the challenge, and no recurrent fees exist. Also, the company offers the exclusive opportunity to reimburse the payment to the customer as per the TOS.
As the company is not a broker or a financial institution, it does not permit the customers to trade their funds and does not retain their funds in any investment. Also, the trading-related activities done by the customers in this challenge and evaluation phase are entirely based on the simulated basis or demo account basis and not a live account.
A separate finance team continuously monitors all the customers eligible for payout after all checks have been performed and is tasked with forecasting the company's liquidity and cash requirements arising from these withdrawals / payouts. It ensures that the company abides by its financial and contractual obligations.
It is the customer's responsibility and liability to pay all the taxes in relation to any account agreement with the company levied upon them under the rules, laws, and regulations of their respective jurisdictions. The company is not authorized, nor do they provide any tax-related advice or guidance.
If it is found that after being eligible for payout, the trader’s actions or any of the practices followed violate any of our set standards, the trading activities will be monitored and reviewed, and appropriate measures will be taken following the terms of service.
