FAQ

General

Essential info on account setup, trading basics, and common queries to kickstart your prop trading journey.

What are the KYC verification requirements I must comply with?

To ensure compliance and facilitate the processing of your payout, the name registered in the SiegPath system must exactly match the name on your government-issued identification documents (e.g., ID card or passport). In cases where there is a discrepancy between your KYC name and our records, we reserve the right to request additional documentation. Additionally, if our internal compliance team detects any indication of identity theft, we may suspend your payout or reject the evaluation result.

Can I request a refund of evaluation fee?

We only refund the evaluation fee once you successfully pass the evaluation.

Refunds are not accepted in the following situations:

  1. If the user is dissatisfied with the demo trading platform or the instruments offered.
  1. If the user fails the evaluation.

For users wishing to transfer to another plan with the same purchase fee and account size, we can assist in issuing a new account, provided there is no trading history on the original account.

Can I use someone else’s credit card or bank account to purchase the evaluation or receive payouts?

No. For anti-money laundering (AML) purposes, the name on the credit card used for purchasing the evaluation must match the name on your government-issued ID. Refunds and profit payouts can only be issued to the individual who passed KYC verification. SiegPath reserves the right to deny refunds or payouts if third-party payment methods or bank accounts are used.

Can I stack the discounts?

No, only one discount can be applied per usage. If you have multiple discount codes or offers available, the system will automatically apply the highest discount to ensure you get the best deal.

Where do I track the progress of my account?

Upon purchasing an evaluation, you will gain access to a trader dashboard where you can monitor your evaluation and authorized live accounts. The dashboard updates every time metrics are calculated, approximately every 60 seconds. It is your responsibility to keep track of your breach levels.

What is the minimum age required to join your program?

To purchase an evaluation account, you must be at least 18 years old or meet the minimum legal age requirement in your country.

What is the difference between a hard breach and a soft breach rule?

Soft breach: Occurs when trades violate a rule, and as a result, all such trades will be closed. However, you may continue trading in your evaluation or authorized live account.

Hard breach: Occurs when you violate either the daily loss limit, the maximum drawdown or prohibited trading strategy rules, as both constitute a hard breach. If a hard breach happens, you will fail the evaluation or lose your authorized live account.
