How many trading days do I need?

Updated November 1, 2026
The minimum number of trading days depends on your program. It makes sure your result reflects real trading skills and not a single lucky session.
Minimum trading days to pass a Challenge
| Program | Minimum trading days |
|---|---|
| Challenge Flex | 1 |
| Challenge Edge | 3 |
There is no maximum. You can take as many days as you need to reach the profit target.
Trading days on funded accounts
Funded accounts (Livex, Direct Pass and Freedom) have no minimum to start trading. To request a payout, however, you need a number of qualified days: trading days where your profit reaches a minimum amount.
| Account | Qualified days per payout |
|---|---|
| Livex | 3 |
| Direct Pass | 5 |
| Freedom | 3 |
The minimum daily profit for a day to qualify depends on your account size. You will find all the details in the article What are qualified days?
Good to know
- Days are counted per account. Trading on one account does not count towards another.
- Your trading days and qualified days are shown in real time on your account page.
