Hola Prime
We would not take itRead plan by plan on 4 August, and the floor turns out to be the clean part: 3% daily and "Maximum Loss Limit 6% of initial account balance", which the firm itself calls "a fixed floor". That sentence is printed twice on the same page, once in the challenge panel and once in the funded one, word for word — nothing trails, and nothing tightens when you pass. What arrives after passing is an extra rule rather than a worse floor: a 2% cap per trade idea that appears only in the funded panel, with a stop compulsory "within 3 minutes of opening a position" and termination on breach. The two accusations this row has always carried survive the closer reading. The scaling page still offers "up to $4 million to trade" while the binding rules table caps combined forex-and-futures allocation at $800K, five times smaller. And the rules page still closes on "Follow the Rules. Get Guaranteed Payouts." over terms reserving "denial or reversal of payouts" at the company's discretion. A third joins them: the advertised "up to 95%" is one payout cycle of three, and the other two pay 80%.
Three of the four forex plans are not graded here. The page that carries every number is a four-tab widget and the archived copy rendered only the 1-Step Prime tab, so the 2-Step Prime, the 2-Step Pro and the Direct Account have no readable target, floor or payout table in the archive — and neither does the separate futures vertical, which publishes an "EOD Trailing Drawdown" of its own. The drawdown grade on this row therefore describes the one plan we could open. Two things a buyer should read before paying. The company you contract with is Hola Prime Limited of Hong Kong, and the footer that publishes registration numbers for two other companies in the group publishes none for that one and names no regulator supervising it. And clause 23.1 binds the customer, "at all times thereafter", not to say anything "disparaging, denigrating, or harmful to the reputation" of the firm, while 23.3 makes support and compliance correspondence confidential — between them, the two routes by which a trader would document a dispute in public. On the credit side, the firm publishes a Deloitte review of its payout record covering five months of transactions; read it beside the firm's own gloss that zero denials means "no eligible withdrawal request from a funded, pre-approved trader was denied", with eligibility decided by the firm.

Its challenges
Judged, clean of all seven hard bars, and the scorecard still came in under the bar. Nothing here is an accusation — it is a firm we would not open an account with, and the card says on which axes it fell short.
What they published
“Your account balance (or equity) should never fall more than 6% below the initial balance. This is a fixed floor.”“Unlock Your Full Trading Potential with us. Get up to $4 million to trade!”“Maximum Capital Allocation Combined Forex & Futures allocation is capped at $800K.”“Follow the Rules. Get Guaranteed Payouts.”“Any breach of the applicable Trading Rules or Prohibited Trading Practices may result, at the Company’s discretion, in account suspension or termination, disqualification, forfeiture of profits, denial or reversal of payouts, or other remedial action.”“Deloitte found that 98.35% of withdrawal requests were processed within one hour, with zero payout denials across all evaluation programs, covering every payout transaction from 15 October 2025 to 15 March 2026.”Scorecard
9Trails on daily closes only, then freezes at your starting balance
A named company, but no financial regulator anywhere — or a light-touch one only
A lifetime ceiling, or a rule that can block payment

Short history, or a sharply polarised review profile
Each axis is scored 0–5 against a published scale. The line under each bar is the rung this firm landed on — not our summary of it, the scale entry itself.
Plan by plan
4 of this firm’s challenges were read plan by plan, with a citation behind every answer. See them side by side →
10% to make against 6% of room, with two minimum trading days and no clock at all — "Trading Period: Unlimited". The 6% is fixed to the initial balance and the daily 3% is measured from the previous day's close, both identical in the challenge and the funded panel. The reservation is not the floor: the terms reserve denial and reversal of payouts at the firm's discretion, and no page says what a withdrawal does to that fixed floor.

What this firm published
Everything below is quoted from a page we opened, on the date shown. The quotes are in the firm’s own language, exactly as published — never edited, never shortened, never swapped for a translation. On the Spanish edition our own rendering appears underneath each one, unquoted and marked as ours: the quotation marks on this site mean the words are the firm’s, and nothing we wrote ever wears them. Where we have not read enough to put a number on an axis, we say so instead of guessing.
2/5
Can you even pass?
Almost nobody who pays for an evaluation ever reaches a funded account, so this is the part of the product most customers actually buy. Every firm advertises its profit target; none of them advertises that target next to how much you are allowed to lose while chasing it.
2/5
Can you keep the money?
The drawdown takes the account away; the payout rules take the money. Answered by whichever of the two we can measure and is worse — they are two ways of losing the same thing, so a good half cannot pay for a bad one.
1/5
Is anyone behind it?
A named company, a market, and rules you could read before paying. These three do not substitute for one another — a company you can sue does not stop existing because the account is a simulation — so this is the average of the ones we could measure, not the worst.
How hard the test is
Not the profit target on the sales page — that target measured against the room you are given to reach it.
How much you must win to survivefor every $1 you are allowed to lose, you must make $1.70.80/8
“Profit target
10% of initial balance”A profit target only means something next to the room you are given to reach it. Ten per cent to make against ten to lose is a coin flip sold as an exam.
Days you have to finishThey state there is none.3/3
“Trading Period: Unlimited”A deadline turns a test of skill into a test of whether the market happened to move during your month.
Trading days you must put in2 days2/2
“Min. Trading Days

A free second attempt turns one bad week into a delay instead of another invoice.

The cap per withdrawal times how many they allow is the real size of the account. One plan here is sold on a $200,000 banner and closes after five withdrawals of $2,100.
What else a payout changesThey do not say.0/3
we read the page that should answer this and it does not
The floor is not the only thing a withdrawal moves, and the rest of it is never on the same page. Position size, the consistency rule and the share you are paid all reset or shift at some firms, and a trader who checked only the drawdown finds out afterwards.

“On Demand

Consistency score = 40% (Min. reward requirement = 2% of initial balance) How it works”Weighted by what it costs, not by existing: reading plan by plan, no consistency rule ever closed an account — they postponed the withdrawal.
