No, ACE UP CAPITAL does not offer swap-free accounts. All our accounts operate with standard overnight swap or rollover fees applied to positions held overnight, in line with industry practices.

To clarify, we understand that some trades may be shorter than 2 minutes, and that is perfectly fine. The key requirement is that the majority of your trades, and the overall average trade duration, exceed 2 minutes. Additionally, at least 50% of your profits must come from trades held for more than 2 minutes.
This rule is designed to encourage thoughtful, strategic trading and ensure that profits reflect consistent market analysis rather than purely short-term scalping.
Yes, at ACE UP CAPITAL, you are allowed to hold trades overnight on all plans. However, we strongly recommend exercising caution if you choose to do so.

More About Order Book Spamming:
What is Order Book Spamming?
Order book spamming occurs when a trader places a large number of orders in the order book to create a misleading impression of market activity. This manipulative behavior can disrupt fairness, provide unfair advantages, and strain trading systems.
Why is it prohibited?
-
Unfair Advantage: It can give traders an artificial edge, especially in a simulated environment, undermining the integrity of the platform.
-
System Strain: Excessive orders can overload the trading platform, slow response times, and reduce overall performance for all users.
- If you wish to open additional trades on the same pair, there must be a minimum gap of 1 minute or more between trades.
Yes, hedging and stacking are allowed at ACE UP CAPITAL, but with certain rules:
Hedging:
-
Hedging is defined as having trades running in both directions on the same instrument at the same time. You can hold both long (buy) and short (sell) positions simultaneously for the same asset on the same account.
-
Prohibited: Hedging intended to lock in a price or for spread arbitrage is not allowed and may result in account closure.
-
Across Accounts: Hedging across multiple accounts is prohibited. When analyzing hedging strategies across correlated instruments, only trades within the same account will be considered.
Stacking:
-
Stacking is defined as having three or more open trades on the same instrument in the same direction. This allows multiple concurrent positions on the same asset.
Both hedging and stacking are permitted within the bounds of our trading rules and risk management policies. Ensure your strategies comply with these guidelines to maintain a safe and positive trading experience.
Stop loss and take profit orders are not mandatory at ACE UP CAPITAL, but we strongly recommend using them. These tools help manage risk, protect your capital, and promote disciplined trading. Incorporating stop loss and take profit levels into your strategy can improve your overall trading performance.
ACE UP CAPITAL has a strict policy against trading strategies that are considered “all or nothing” or purely speculative. We do not accept strategies that rely on gambling-like behavior. Our goal is to identify and partner with traders who can effectively manage risk, generate consistent profits, and maintain disciplined trading practices.
Examples of gambling behavior include:
-
Inconsistent lot sizing: Significant deviations in lot size compared to the account’s average may indicate gambling.
-
Unusual trade durations: Trades held for significantly shorter periods than the account’s typical average (e.g., suddenly holding a trade for minutes when the average is hours) can be seen as speculative rather than strategic.
-
Speculative news trading: Initiating trades just before and closing immediately after high-impact news events, especially without a consistent strategy, is considered gambling. This includes short-term trades on Swing accounts or trades around news events on Pro/One/Three account models.
Trading behavior deemed as gambling will result in the removal of profits and may lead to termination of your contract and closure of your Qualified Trader Account.
Leverage is a financial tool that allows traders to control a larger position size with a smaller amount of capital. While it can magnify potential profits, it also increases potential losses. Even though no personal capital is at risk on Assessment or Qualified Analyst accounts, leverage can significantly impact your trading strategy. Please trade responsibly and be aware of the risks associated with using leverage.

A: No. There is no limit on the number of assessment-phase accounts you may hold.
Q: What are the limits once I am a qualified (funded) trader?
A: Once you are qualified, the following rules apply:
-
You may only hold one Qualified account per plan size.

For example, if you have a 100K Swing account, you cannot hold another 100K Swing Qualified account but you can have 50K or any other size of swing account..
-
-
You can hold other account sizes from different plans.
-
For example, if you have a 100K Swing, you can also have a 100K Ace Up Pro or 100K Ace Up One-Step, as long as they are from different plans and total allocation in qualified stage is not more then 200K.
-
-
The maximum total allocation across all funded accounts is capped at $200,000.
Example of an allowed funded allocation:
-
1 × 100K Swing
-
1 × 50K Ace Up Pro
-
1 × 50K Ace Up One-Step
Total = 200K (Maximum permitted)
Example of a not allowed funded setup:
-
1 × 100K Swing
