## How Edge 2 Step works

### Phase 1

Reach the first target, no time limit

7.5% (profit target, from the starting balance)

- Max daily loss **4.5%**
- Max loss **9% · Static**
- Profitable days **2 days of +0.5% per phase**

### Phase 2

A smaller target, starting again from the balance

5% (profit target in Phase 2)

- Max daily loss **4.5%**
- Max loss **9% · Static**
- Profitable days **2 days of +0.5% per phase**

### Funded

The same limits, a funded account

80% up to 95% (your share of every payout, rising as you scale)

- Max daily loss **4.5%**
- Max loss **9% · Static**
- Max. Exposure **5,000%**

### Payout

First payout on demand once funded, then weekly

Weekly (after a first payout on demand)

- Minimum payout **1% of the account**
- Profitable days **2 days of +0.5% before each payout**

## Who it's for

Edge is the evaluation route: Edge 1 Step has a single 10% target with a 7.5% maximum loss, Edge 2 Step splits the target into 7.5% then 5% with a 9% maximum loss, both at an 80% split, up to 95% as you scale.

Prime is the evaluation with a salary: pass Edge 1 Step or Edge 2 Step and the funded account earns 1% of its size a month, and a 100% split after 30 days.

### Key rules

- **Phase 1 Profit Target**: 7.5% of the account
- **Phase 2 Profit Target**: 5% of the account
- **Max Daily Loss**: 4.5% of the account
- **Max Loss**: 9% of the account
- **Max Loss Type**: Static
- **Profit Split**: 80% up to 95%
- **Payout Cycle**: First payout on demand once funded, then weekly

## The numbers that matter

### Pick a size

## Questions about this plan

**What does Edge 2 Step cost?**

$32 for the $2.5K account up to $990 for the $200K account, as a one time fee. Every price, and the list price beside it, is shown on this page.

**Is there an evaluation on Edge 2 Step?**

Yes, in two phases: a profit target of 7.5% of the account in phase 1, then 5% of the account in phase 2.

**What is the profit split on Edge 2 Step?**

80%, up to 95% as you scale, as published in the plan's funded rules.

**What are the loss limits on Edge 2 Step?**

A Max Daily Loss of 4.5% of the account, measured from the day's opening balance, and a Max Loss of 9% of the account, static from the starting balance. Both count open losses, and reaching either ends the account. They are the same in the evaluation and once funded.

**How often can I take a payout on Edge 2 Step?**

First payout on demand once funded, then weekly. Before each payout you need 2 profitable days, each closing at +0.5% of the account size or more.

**Is there a time limit?**

No. Max trading days are unlimited during the evaluation and indefinite once funded.

**Can I trade the news?**

Yes, on every CFD plan and at every stage: there is no restricted window around a release. One practice is reviewed by the risk desk: straddling, which is opening positions in both directions on the same or a correlated instrument within 15 minutes either side of a high-impact release to catch the spike. A position taken on a genuine view of the market, before or after a release, is fine.

**Which platform will I trade on?**

MetaTrader 5. Web, desktop, iPhone and Android.

**How are payouts paid?**

By bank transfer, in crypto (USDT, USDC, BTC or ETH) or as store credit. Every request is confirmed as received.

**What is the difference between a one step and a two step plan?**

How the profit target is split. A one step plan has a single target and you are funded when you reach it. A two step plan splits the journey across two phases with a smaller target in each, at a lower entry price. Neither has a time limit.

### Every rule on this plan, explained

The same answers as the rules FAQ, with this plan's figure on top.

**What is the profit target?**

**On this plan:** 7.5% of the account

The net profit that passes an evaluation stage. Edge 1 Step and Prime 1 Step have one target. Edge 2 Step and Prime 2 Step have one for Phase 1 and a smaller one for Phase 2, and Phase 2 starts again from the starting balance. There is no time limit: the stage passes once the target is reached with no positions open and the stage's profitable days done. Instant has no target: it is funded from day one.

**What is the profit target?**

**On this plan:** 5% of the account

The net profit that passes an evaluation stage. Edge 1 Step and Prime 1 Step have one target. Edge 2 Step and Prime 2 Step have one for Phase 1 and a smaller one for Phase 2, and Phase 2 starts again from the starting balance. There is no time limit: the stage passes once the target is reached with no positions open and the stage's profitable days done. Instant has no target: it is funded from day one.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-phase-2-profit-target-ch_two_step)

**What is the Max Daily Loss?**

**On this plan:** 4.5% of the account

The most you may lose within one trading day, open losses included. It is measured from the day's opening balance, which is the previous day's closing balance at 17:00 New York.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-max-daily-loss-ch_two_step)

**What is the Max Loss?**

**On this plan:** 9% of the account

The total loss the account may ever take, open losses included. It is static on every CFD plan: a fixed floor below the starting balance that never moves.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-max-loss-ch_two_step)

**Is the Max Loss static or trailing?**

**On this plan:** Static

Static, on every CFD plan: the Max Loss floor is fixed below your starting balance and never moves, up or down.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-max-loss-type-ch_two_step)

**What profit split do I get?**

**On this plan:** 80%, up to 95% as you scale

Your share of the profit on a funded account, rising as you scale: 80% up to 95% on Edge, 75% up to 90% on Instant Pro, 70% up to 85% on Instant Go, and on Prime 80% for the first 30 days funded, then 100%. Every 90-day scaling cycle you complete adds 5% to the split, up to the plan's ceiling. A cycle is complete when, over 90 days, you make 12% net profit on 1 Step (10% on 2 Step, 15% on Instant), close at least 50 trades, have 2 of 3 profitable months (all 3 on Instant), no single trade makes more than 7.5% of the profit (5% on Instant), and no rule warning is raised. Each cycle also grows the account by 30%. Prime's split does not rise with scaling. On Instant, each Max Floating Loss per Symbol strike cuts the next payout cycle to a 10% split.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-profit-split-ch_two_step)

**How often can I take a payout?**

**On this plan:** First payout on demand once funded, then weekly

Your first payout can be requested on demand, as soon as the account qualifies: once funded (or after your first trade on Instant) with the plan's profitable days done. After that, one request every 7 days, or every 14 days on Instant Go.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-payout-cycle-ch_two_step)

**What leverage do I get?**

**On this plan:** 1:100 Max

The most the platform lets you open against your margin: 1:100 on Edge 1 Step and Edge 2 Step and Prime 2 Step, 1:33 on Instant Pro, 1:25 on Instant Go and 1:50 on Prime 1 Step. It is the same in the evaluation and once funded. It is a ceiling, not a target; Max. Exposure is what sizes your positions in practice.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-leverage-ch_two_step)

**What is a strike?**

**On this plan:** A Max. Exposure breach is a warning, not a strike: if the account is in profit, its profit is reset to the starting balance (profitable days are kept); a second breach closes the account

What a soft breach costs on Instant Pro and Instant Go: each Max Floating Loss per Symbol breach after the first is a strike, and each strike cuts the next payout cycle to a 10% split. Max. Exposure and Max Floating Loss per Trade are not strikes: their first breach is a warning that resets the profit of an account in profit, and the second closes the account.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-strikes-ch_two_step)

**What are the minimum profitable days?**

**On this plan:** 2 days of +0.5% per phase

Days that close at +0.5% of the account size or more (New York trading days, 17:00 to 17:00). Edge 1 Step needs 3 to pass and Edge 2 Step 2 in each phase, the same on Prime; once funded, the same number is needed again before each payout. Instant Go needs 5 before each payout, and Instant Pro has none.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-min-profitable-days-ch_two_step)

**Is there a time limit on a CFD account?**

**On this plan:** Unlimited

No. Evaluations have unlimited trading days and a funded account has no expiry.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-max-trading-days-ch_two_step)

**What commission do I pay?**

**On this plan:** Forex $5, metals $6, energies $6 per lot, round turn; indices and stocks free; crypto 0.06% of the trade value

A commission the platform charges on every trade, in USD. On Edge and Instant: Forex $5, metals $6, energies $6 per lot, round turn; indices and stocks free; crypto 0.06% of the trade value. On Prime: Forex $4, metals $5, energies $6 per lot, round turn; indices and stocks free; crypto 0.045% of the trade value. It is the same in the evaluation and once funded, and it is part of each trade's result, so it counts toward your profit target and your loss limits like any other cost.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-commission-ch_two_step)

**Can I trade the news on a CFD account?**

**On this plan:** Allowed. Trading both ways around a high-impact release to catch the spike (straddling, 15 minutes either side) is reviewed by the risk desk

Yes, on every CFD plan and at every stage: there is no restricted window around a release. One practice is reviewed by the risk desk: straddling, which is opening positions in both directions on the same or a correlated instrument within 15 minutes either side of a high-impact release to catch the spike. A position taken on a genuine view of the market, before or after a release, is fine.

**Can I hold trades over the weekend?**

**On this plan:** With the add-on; without it, trades still open at 4:45 PM New York time on Friday are closed by the system: the first time is a warning, the second closes the account

With the Weekend Holding add-on, chosen when you buy the account, on every CFD plan. Without it, close your positions by 4:45 PM New York time on Friday: anything still open then is closed by the system at the market price, in the evaluation and once funded. The first time is a warning and the account trades on; the second time closes the account. Edge and Prime accounts bought before the add-on was introduced keep holding over the weekend, through every phase.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-weekend-holding-ch_two_step)

**Can I use expert advisors?**

**On this plan:** Yes

Yes, on every CFD plan, as long as the expert advisor is genuinely yours: one you developed, own and control, can explain, and can show running. Pre-purchased, rented, subscription or mass-market “plug-and-play” bots are not allowed on any plan, however they trade. You stay responsible for every trade it places, and it may not be used for high-frequency trading or to exploit prices, latency or feed errors.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-expert-advisors-ch_two_step)

**Can I copy trades between accounts?**

**On this plan:** Yes

Yes, to copy your own trading: between WhitePips accounts that you own and trade yourself (CFD with CFD), or from a master account that is genuinely yours, including one you hold at another broker or firm. Copying another person's account, a signal service, a shared master, an account manager or a challenge-passing service is not allowed on any plan.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-trade-copier-ch_two_step)

**Can I hold trades overnight?**

**On this plan:** Yes

Yes, on every CFD plan and stage. Positions held through the daily rollover may be charged swaps, which count toward your loss limits like any other cost.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-overnight-holding-ch_two_step)

**What happens if I stop trading for a while?**

**On this plan:** 30 days without a closed trade ends the account

30 days in a row without a closed trade ends the account, on every CFD plan and at every stage. An open position does not count; a trade must close. You are warned by email a few days before.

[Open it in the rules FAQ](https://whitepips.com/faq-cfds#rule-inactivity-ch_two_step)

**What is the smallest payout I can take?**

**On this plan:** 1% of the account

It depends on the plan. Edge 2 Step and Prime 2 Step: no minimum. Edge 1 Step and Prime 1 Step: 1% of the starting balance, and never more than $100. Instant Pro and Instant Go: 1% of the starting balance. A payout to a crypto wallet must also be at least $100, the payment provider's minimum; a smaller amount can go by bank transfer or wait for a later request.
