NexGen ProTrader Funding review

If you trade at max contracts or over 50% of max, you must manage exits carefully:

• You cannot use a market order to exit

• You cannot close using the “X”

To close positions over 50% of max:

• Use smaller market orders (below max) until flat

• If at max contracts, use your Stop or Target to exit

Example: On a 25k eval (max 5 contracts), trading 3–5 contracts will cause rejection if you try to exit with “X” or full-size market orders.

This happens because the system checks the total number of active contracts plus your order size, not whether you’re closing a position.

Margin requirements and Risk are very high, so do not hold beyond 5 minutes before the close at 4:55 PM EST, or your account will be terminated. You will be warned via email for prohibited trading.

3 or more violations will result in account closure

During each payout period, at least 50% of all closed trades must have an absolute price movement of at least 5 ticks from entry to exit, based on the final closed result of each trade, regardless of profit or loss. Trades that do not meet this threshold will count toward the remaining 50% allowance. The percentage is calculated based on the total number of closed trades during the payout period.

This requirement exists to ensure there is sufficient price movement and liquidity for consistent execution across accounts.

Note: Any attempt to artificially manipulate trade outcomes or execution to meet this requirement may result in account review. Trading patterns that are clearly designed to circumvent this rule may result in account review.

You cannot let someone else trade your account. You must be the trader.

Group trading, coordinated trading, or shared trading activity is strictly prohibited. Each trader must independently manage and execute trades on their own accounts.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• Manually copying trades from another person

• Trading side by side using the same entries and exits

• One individual directing or signaling trades to another person in real time

• Spouses, family members, friends, or business partners mirroring each other’s trading activity

• Using the same strategy execution in a coordinated manner across multiple individuals

All accounts must reflect independent trading decisions and risk management. Accounts identified as participating in coordinated or group trading activity may be suspended, failed, or permanently banned at our discretion.

1 violation will result in account closure

Do not be in an open position 1 minute before or until 1 minute after any US Red Flag news event, as denoted by Forex Factory's Economic Calendar.

1 violation will result in account closure

If a market is limited up or down, you cannot place a trade for 5 minutes after trading resumes. This hasn't happened in a long time, but it will again one day, so remain vigilant.

A trading day must not be considered "flipping".

• Flipping per the contract, " Trader " is defined as an individual who understands that the Company seeks independent contractors "to fund and payout" who follow a consistent size, stop, and target trading plan. This means not trading max or larger contracts on one trade, seeking “oversized lucky wins or windfalls” while trading micros the rest of the time, known as “flipping” (minimally trading micro contracts) to add a "trading day." It is imperative that you maintain a consistent number of contracts traded throughout the evaluation period and beyond.

*Nexgen may require you to trade on additional days if your trading activity is deemed flipping relative to your normal trading behavior.
