What is a Trading Day?
A trading day at FTT is any day you make at least one trade. As long as you execute a trade, that day counts as a trading day.
Non-Consecutive Trading Days
Trading days don’t have to be consecutive for the 10-day payout. This means you can trade on days that suit you best without needing to trade every single day.
Consecutive Trading Days
For the 5-day payout, trading days must be consecutive. You need to trade every day for five consecutive trading days to be eligible for the 5-day payout.
Counting Trading Days for Payouts
For payout eligibility:
- 5-Day Payout: Requires five consecutive trading days.
- 10-Day Payout: Requires ten trading days, which do not have to be consecutive.
Can I Trade 24×7?
The futures market is open from Sunday 6 PM EST to Friday 4 PM EST, with a daily pause from 5 PM to 6 PM EST for clearing and roll-over activities. All positions must be closed by 4:15 PM EST on a daily basis.
Can I Hold Positions Overnight?
No, positions must be closed by 4:15 PM EST daily. If positions are not closed, Fast Track Trading’s risk systems will liquidate the position and charge a $25 fee per contract.
