During the Mintply Challenge and Verification stages, you are not required to close positions overnight or over the weekend. You have the flexibility to keep your positions open as long as you meet the other trading objectives.
However, once you become a Mintply Trader with a Mintply Account, you must close all positions before the market closes for the weekend or if a rollover (market break) exceeds 2 hours. Mintply Traders are expected to adhere to the specific trading hours of each asset class and instrument.
Standard market hours can be viewed directly within the trading platform. For example, in MetaTrader, you can check the trading hours by right-clicking on the instrument in the Market Watch window and selecting ‘Specification.’ In the cTrader platform, you can find trading hours by opening the Markets section and selecting ‘Market Symbol’ for the instrument of interest. Similarly, in the DXtrade platform, you can access trading hours by going to your “Watchlist,” right-clicking on any instrument, and selecting “Instrument Info.”
Mintply Traders with a Swing Account do not have these restrictions and are free to hold positions over the weekend and during news events.
