Port Louis, Mauritius
Tseung Kwan O, Hong KongWhich should you choose?
By trading style
| You are… | Pick | |
|---|---|---|
| Beginners | Either | FXIFY: A free course with a $1,000 instant-funding unlock and a wide account-size ladder help newcomers start cheap, but the vague prohibited-strategy clauses and a 60-day inactivity breach punish the slow, exploratory pace beginners often need. |
| Experienced traders | Either | FXIFY: Competitive pricing, accounts to $400k, a choice of static or trailing drawdown and up to 90% split reward a trader who already has a proven, well-documented strategy and can defend it if compliance asks. |
| Swing traders | Hola Prime | The Prime plans are explicitly marketed for swing traders, with unrestricted weekend holding and news trading on both the Challenge and funded stages. |
| Scalpers | Either | FXIFY: Raw spreads are genuinely tight per reviewers, but high-frequency trading and 'exploiting bugs/glitches' are named prohibited strategies, and fast, short-hold trades are exactly the pattern FXIFY's latency-arbitrage reviews target. |
| EA & algo traders | Either | FXIFY: EAs need individual pre-approval before use, are banned outright on Instant Funding and the Lightning Challenge, and 'herd trading' bans even using the same popular EA as other FXIFY clients. |
| News traders | Hola Prime | Unrestricted on 1-Step/2-Step Prime, but 2-Step Pro and Direct impose a 5-minute no-new-orders window around high-impact news, with a hard breach on Direct. |
Verdicts
FXIFY verdict
Cheap, flexible programs undercut by a vague rule that bans winners for 'latency arbitrage'
Best for: Price-conscious traders who want program choice and keep clean, explainable manual trading records.
Avoid if: You scalp, run an EA, or can't tolerate a compliance team second-guessing a profitable run after the fact.
Hola Prime verdict
Cheap and fast with standout support, but the 2% trade-idea rule is the account-killer to watch
Best for: Disciplined CFD swing traders who want cheap, fast evaluations, unrestricted news/weekend trading on the Prime plans, and are careful to keep risk under 2% per trade idea.
Avoid if: You rely on EAs outside a paid MT5 add-on, trade from a shared or recycled-IP VPS, or need a multi-year payout track record before committing real evaluation money.
