Every challenge at P1 is available in two styles (strategies): Day Trading and Swing Trading. We separate these because they carry genuinely different risks (intraday vs. overnight/weekend exposure).
Most firms apply a one-size-fits-all structure that quietly overcharges or over-restricts one of these styles. By separating them, we ensure that pricing, leverage, and conditions accurately match how you actually trade. Because of this, the Trading Objectives differ slightly between the two.
Based on your strategy, risk tolerance, and cost sensitivity, this distinction gives you an additional, powerful way to select the exact challenge that fits your preferences.
Day Trading (intraday trading)
Positions are opened and closed within the same session, so you finish each day flat with no overnight or weekend exposure. All positions must be closed by 23:10 MT5 server time, and trading reopens at 01:00 MT5 server time. Any positions still open at 23:10 MT5 server time are closed automatically. Day Trading comes with our sharpest pricing, highest leverage and fewest restrictions - gap-trading rules do not apply. It suits active, in-session traders.
Swing Trading (rolling positions overnight and on weekends)
Positions can be held overnight and across weekends to capture multi-day moves. Our swing pricing and leverage are highly competitive - among the strongest available from any firm offering a comparable swing strategy.
