All traders enrolled in the SkillCheck program are allowed a max account size of $50,000. Only profitable traders (those who have passed the SkillCheck Program) have the opportunity to scale up to $250,000 in funding. However, a trader will only be allowed to enrol for another SkillCheck program after breaching/having received a live-funded trading account.

Illustration:
A trader enrolled for a SkillCheck Program of $50,000; Until he passes/breaches all phases and gets funded live, he cannot enrol for any other program of any account size.

However, If a trader passes the SkillCheck program and is funded live, he can then be allowed to enrol for additional SkillCheck programs of up to $50,000 max and must pass all phases until live-funded.

Willis Capital allows profitable traders the opportunity to scale up to $250,000 using the approach explained in the above illustration; i.e. a trader passes all phases of a SkillCheck program for a $50,000 account size and get funded live, he can then proceed to enrol for another SkillCheck program $50,000 account size until funded live. This can be repeated up until a trader has a total of $250,000 (($50,000 * 5) funded live.

Scenario 2:
A trader enrolled for a SkillCheck Program of $10,000 account size. NB: He cannot enrol for more than ($50,000 max i.e. he can enrol for 5 * $10,000 to max $50,000). Until he passes/breaches all phases and gets funded live, he cannot enrol for any other program of any account size.

However, If a trader passes the SkillCheck program and is funded live, he can then be allowed to enrol for additional SkillCheck programs of up to $50,000 max and must pass all phases until live-funded.

Willis Capital allows profitable traders the opportunity to scale up to $250,000 using the approach explained in the above illustration; i.e. a trader passes all phases of a SkillCheck program for (5 * $10,000 to max $50,000) account size and gets funded live, he can then proceed to enrol for another SkillCheck program $50,000 account size until funded live. This can be repeated up until a trader has a total of $250,000 (($10,000 * 25/ $25,000 * 10) funded live.

Yes! Willis Capital has a scaling plan where profitable traders can scale their live-funded enrolled $250,000 ($50,000 * 5) accounts up to $500,000. For every 20% realised quarterly profit a trader makes on an enrolled account, we scale you by 20% of the enrolled account.

Illustration:

A trader made 20% realised profits between 3 months (January - March) of an enrolled $250,000 account. In April, we will scale your enrolled account by 20% of the account's initial balance of $250,000 ($50,000) which will total $300,000. If the trader does another 20% realised profits between 3 months (April - June) of a $300,000 account. In July, we will scale your enrolled account by 20% of the account's initial balance of $250,000 ($50,000) which will total $350,000.

If the trader does another 20% realised profits between 3 months (July - Sep) of a $350,000 account. In October, we will scale your enrolled account by 20% of the account's initial balance of( $250,000; ($50,000) which will total $400,000.

NB:At Willis Capital, a trader can only be scaled to $500,000 max. This is because we provide live funding to traders in our programs, and this funding is capped at $10,000,000. Hence, our goal is to provide an equitable platform; giving every trader an equal opportunity to get funded.

The utilisation of Expert Advisors (EAs) to facilitate trading is certainly allowed. Nevertheless, it's crucial to be aware that there are specific types of EAs that we consider inappropriate due to their potential negative impact on the trading ecosystem.

To provide more clarity, the following types of EAs are prohibited:
1. High-Frequency Trading (HFT): EAs that execute an unusually large number of trades within extremely short timeframes are not permitted. This precaution is in place to prevent excessive market volatility and the potential for unfair advantages.

2. Grid / Martingale Strategies: EAs that implement grid or martingale trading strategies, which involve progressively increasing trade sizes after losses, are sanctioned. These strategies carry a heightened risk of substantial losses.

3. Arbitrage: EAs that seek to exploit price discrepancies between different markets or brokers are not allowed. Arbitrage strategies could disrupt market integrity and create an uneven trading landscape.

4. Tick Scalping: EAs that focus on profiting from minuscule price movements within a single tick are prohibited. Such strategies can strain the trading platform and might not contribute positively to overall market stability.

By establishing these restrictions, we intend to cultivate a secure and equitable trading environment that fosters success for all traders. Familiarizing yourself with and adhering to these guidelines is essential to ensure a positive trading experience for all participants.

Of course! You are granted the option to merge your funded program within Willis Capital.

Only programs of the same type can be merged.

Merging cannot occur if there are active trades or if a program is amidst a trading cycle. Ensure all trades are closed and the trading cycle is finished before proceeding. Negative balance programs are not eligible for merging.

For queries or assistance with merging, please adhere to the provided guidelines and reach out to our Willis Capital Support Team.

The "Stimulus Add-On" is an account enhancement feature crafted to provide traders with the opportunity to expand their drawdown limits, allowing for extended and more flexible trading capabilities. This enhancement comes at a nominal fee and is equivalent to 50% of the actual drawdown per cent.

The Stimulus Add-on costs 45% of the enrolment fee and is activated upon a 70% realised drawdown.

A trader must have had a realised loss of 70% of the program's overall drawdown.

Illustration 1:
Program account size - $10,000 Process Phase - 5% maximum drawdown

Scenario:
A trader loses 3.5% of his 5% maximum drawdown, he can then activate stimulus add-on which will give an added 2.5% of the overall drawdown. This will increase the trader’s overall drawdown back to 4% on the program account.

Illustration 2:
Program account size - $10,000 Authentication Phase - 10% maximum drawdown

Scenario:
A trader loses 7% of his 10% maximum drawdown, he can then activate stimulus add-on which will give an added 5% of the overall drawdown. This will increase the trader’s overall drawdown back to 8% on the program account.

Responsible trading involves utilizing your skills and knowledge to make informed trading decisions while adhering to ethical practices. It means avoiding actions that disrupt the fairness and integrity of the platform for all participants.

The inconsistency rule at Willis Capital stipulates that program participants, especially fund managers should do their utmost to adhere to a well-defined trading strategy across trades. This helps them manage risk effectively and aligns with industry best practices.

Consistency promotes a fair and stable trading environment. It also benefits individual traders by encouraging discipline, improved risk management, and a clear path for self-evaluation and improvement.

Several activities are prohibited, including market manipulation (wash trading, spoofing, pump and dump schemes), high-frequency trading (HFT), excessive hedging for disruption, market abuse (front-running, insider trading), and gambling practices (excessive risk-taking, impulsive trading, chasing unrealistic returns).

Develop a well-defined trading strategy based on analysis, manage your risk tolerance, don't chase quick profits, and avoid impulsive decisions based on emotions.

If we suspect a violation, your account may be suspended or terminated. We encourage you to contact our support team if you have any questions about responsible trading practices.

Absolutely. We encourage all users to report any suspicious activity to our support team. This helps maintain a fair and secure trading environment for everyone.
