Why indices at Velotrade

Broad market exposure with trader-friendly rules.

The same rules apply on every account, across all ten global index instruments.

US500, US100, GER40, macro-driven markets

Trade the world's most liquid index instruments. Macro releases, rate decisions, and economic data move these markets, and you can trade through all of them.

News trading allowed

FOMC decisions move US500 hundreds of points. Hold through it, trade through it, no restriction.

Weekend holding

Index positions stay open through the weekend. No forced close ahead of Friday's settlement.

Static drawdown

Index volatility is measured and manageable. Your floor never trails your peak, it's fixed from day one.

No consistency rule

An FOMC day that produces 80% of your monthly profit still counts in full.

One account, all five classes

Trade US500 alongside EURUSD and BTC on the same funded account, same rules.

FAQ

Index trading questions.

What indices are available on a funded account?
Available index instruments include US500 (S&P 500), NAS100 (NASDAQ 100), US30 (Dow Jones), US2000 (Russell 2000), GER40 (DAX 40), UK100 (FTSE 100), FRA40 (CAC 40), JPN225 (Nikkei 225), AUS200 (ASX 200), and HK50 (Hang Seng 50). All are available at up to 1:5 leverage.
Can I trade indices through FOMC or major macro events?
Yes. There are no news trading restrictions. You can hold or enter US500 positions during FOMC decisions, CPI releases, payroll data, or any other scheduled macro event. These events create the volatility that index traders look for.
Can I hold index positions over the weekend?
Yes. There is no forced close before the weekend. You can hold US500, NAS100, GER40, or any other index position through Friday's close.
Is there a consistency rule on index trades?
No. An FOMC day that moves US500 400 points and accounts for your entire monthly profit still counts in full. There is no cap on single-session gains and no evaluation of your daily profit distribution.
What is static drawdown and how does it apply to index trading?
Static drawdown means your maximum loss floor is fixed at your starting account balance. In index trading, where leverage and intraday moves can be significant, this means your floor never moves down as your account grows. You keep the same buffer throughout your funded account.
Can I trade US and European indices on the same account?
Yes. Your funded account includes all listed index instruments. You can trade US500 during the US session and GER40 during the European session from the same account with the same risk rules applying across all positions.
