>>> ALL TRADERS - BE ADVISED <<<

What days can I trade?

Evaluation programs require you to trade for a minimum number of days, typically 10-15. Sometimes evaluations are split into multiple steps, each with their own profit target and minimum number of days traded requirements.

A trading day is generally measured (for CME group instruments) as the period from the Globex open (17:00 CT) until some time around the NYSE close (e.g. 15:00CT).

📝

Not closing a position before the end of the trading day, i.e. holding a position into the overnight session, is generally an immediate break of a test rule.

Some evaluation programs do exist that allow multi-day swing trading. These are generally constrained to using Micro E-mini contracts.

When there are market holidays, evaluators tend to follow the CME holiday and settlement schedule. For example, if Monday’s a holiday and the market closes early at 12:00CT, any trade opened between Sunday 17:00 and Monday 12:00 will be counted as part of Tuesday’s full trading day from Monday 17:00 until Tuesday’s close.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
