Hola Prime announced a consolidated rulebook on 21 October, bringing account conditions, challenge criteria and breach provisions into one reference. The update changes margin-use, profit-concentration and stop-loss conditions on simulated funded accounts, affecting how traders’ behaviour is assessed.[1]
Published changes to account controls
| Previous condition | Current treatment |
|---|---|
| 60% profit-concentration limit | Removed |
| 70% margin-use limit | Removed |
| Three-minute stop-loss grace period | Removed; every trade requires a stop loss without a grace period |
The changelog says a single instance of excessive margin use or concentrated profit on isolated trades no longer prompts immediate action. Repeated patterns of speculative trading or excessive margin use can still lead to action.[2]
The stop-loss change removes placement leeway: the changelog requires a stop loss on every trade with no grace period. Rule TR.4.5 separately confirms the mandatory stop-loss obligation. Traders need to have the stop in place as required, rather than assume they retain three minutes to add it.[2][3]
The rulebook’s introductory guidance says it explains the requirements, while the signed agreement and Terms of Service remain legally binding. That hierarchy makes the account’s contractual terms relevant when interpreting a simplified rule description or a change-history entry.[4]
Hola Prime also describes an internal appeal route for disputed breaches. Its Risk Team reviews the circumstances and provides a written outcome, including whether the original decision stands or is reversed. The announcement describes a company review process; it supplies no independent adjudicator or appeal-success statistics.[1]
For a trader disputing an account action, preserving the applicable rule version and the transaction record becomes useful evidence. Clear change histories can make that comparison easier, but the practical test is whether a written decision explains how the relevant rule applied to the specific trading behaviour.
