However, we do not allow weekend trading on the TopTier Challenge Regular accounts. All positions will be liquidated on TopTier Challenge Regular accounts on Friday at 4PM EST.

Trading Restrictions

As much as we try not to restrict our trader’s style at TopTier Trader, there are certain strategies we have deemed as “cheating” as they provide an unfair advantage by manipulating the demo accounts. Any trader that is caught using any of the strategies we deemed prohibited, not limited to those stated on this page, will have their challenge or funded accounts breached as they would have violated our terms of use policy.

 

Below are some of the prohibited strategies:

  • Grid Trading

  • Latency arbitrage

  • Reverse arbitrage

  • Tick scalping

  • Account management

  • Signal trading

  • High-frequency trading

  • Martingale

  • Hedging between accounts

  • Guaranteed limit orders

  • Data feed manipulation

  • Trading on delayed charts

  • Macroeconomic trading during high-impact reports and being filled at an unrealistic price due to the volatility.

Can I Trade The News?

We allow news trading on our Tier 1 and 2 accounts, however, on the TopTier Funded accounts (Regular and Swing), there would be certain restrictions.

 

Please note that the news restriction rule does not apply to our Plus Model.

 

TopTier Funded accounts are not permitted to execute new trades or close existing trades on instruments being targeted by red folder macroeconomic events in the window of ≈ 4 minutes (≈ 2 minutes before and ≈ 2 minutes after the release of a red folder event).

 

For clarification, executing a trade is defined as opening, closing, or the modification of either a pending or market order.

 

You are permitted to hold your trades on instruments being targeted by red folder macroeconomic events that were open for more than ≈ 2 minutes prior to the restricted red folder macroeconomic event.

 

Do note that if your trade were to close, this includes your SL/TP being triggered prior to ≈ 2 minutes before until ≈ 2 minutes after the red folder macroeconomic event, any profits of those affected trades will be revoked and a warning will be issued to the member. Trades that result in a loss will not be compensated and will still receive a violation warning.

 

After the first warning, if your account violates the restriction once more then the account will be fully breached and terminated without further notice.

Red Folder Macroeconomic Events can be found under the following link: https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar

Note: Allowing one warning notification does not mean the rule is intended to be violated. If it is determined, either via gross negligence or periodically violating the rule (many news trades during a short period of time) or otherwise, that the account in question had no intention of complying with our news rules, TopTier Trader reserves the right to breach the account prior to issuing the warning stated above. Do note that if the deduction were to breach any of your drawdown limits the account would remain as such.

KYC/AML Screening

Before we issue any virtually funded account or any type of payout, we require that you verify your ID and pass our KYC/AML screening. Most applicants will have no issue with the screening and will be verified in as little as 5 minutes.

 

Below are the required steps in order to pass the screening:

  1. Upon successfully completing the evaluation phase you will receive an email with a link to complete your KYC/AML screening.

  2. You will be asked to submit a valid form of ID. This could be a driver’s license, passport, ID card, or residence permit.

  3. You will also be asked to submit a valid proof of address issued within the last 90 days. This could be a bank statement, utility bill, or phone bill.

  4. You will then be required to take a selfie so that we can match your face to that on your submitted ID

Once you have completed the KYC/AML screening and are verified, you will receive an agreement sent to you within 48 – 72 business hours. Once the agreement has been signed, you will then receive your virtually funded account the upcoming Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.

 

If you have any issues with your KYC/AML screening, please contact our live support and we will assist you in potentially getting you verified if possible. Note that if you are unable to pass the screening, you will not be able to receive the funded account details and will receive a refund to your challenge.

Live or Demo?

All accounts on TopTier Trader are demo. Even when you become a funded trader, we will provide a demo account with virtual funds. This account will be connected to our master live account that places trades in the live market using copy trading software.

 

Providing a demo account is not only a way to help us better our risk tolerance, but it also is an industry-standard when it comes to the issuance of funded accounts. We expect funded traders to trade and manage their accounts as if they were live accounts.

 

Note: Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.

How To Get Started?

Becoming a TopTier Trader is as easy as 1-2-3. Follow the below steps in order to register and become the next TopTier Trader!

  1. Head over to our Pricing section on the home page.

  2. Select the challenge size you would like to take.

  3. Proceed to checkout and make payment for the challenge. You may pay via credit/debit card or cryptocurrency.

Within a few minutes to a couple of hours depending on your payment choice, you will receive your account credentials in a welcome email and will be able to access the trading platform as well as the dashboard. Payments via crypto orders have to be confirmed on the blockchain before the order gets completed.

 

NOTE: We only accept ETH on the ERC-20 network. If you send ETH on any other network besides ERC-20, we will not receive your payment and will not be in any position to provide technical support for you to receive your payment back.

 

Make sure you have reviewed the rules of the challenge before starting it. If you have any doubts regarding the rules feel free to contact our live support for clarification.

 

Please note that all TopTier-funded accounts are subject to a KYC/AML screening prior to being issued. So please ensure that you are able to provide a valid form of ID and proof of address issued within the last 90 days to avoid any delays in receiving your funded account in the event that you are successful in completing the evaluation phase.

What is TopTier Trader

TopTier Trader is a company searching for experienced traders to join the family of TopTier Traders.

 

To determine if a trader has what it takes to become a TopTier Trader, we have created a 2-Tier evaluation process. Upon successful completion of the evaluation, traders are offered a placement in the TopTier Proprietary Trading Firm, where they can remotely manage virtual funds and continuously grow the simulated account through our scaling plan. As a TopTier Trader, you are eligible to keep up to 90% of the virtual profits you generate on the simulated funded accounts.

 

TopTier Trader was founded by two of the most prolific traders in the industry, Cue Banks and Anthony of Anthony’s World, as they set out on a journey to help alleviate the issues traders face when trading a challenge.
