## What The Data Shows

2 futures prop firms we track publish a policy on weekend holding. Conditions are usually commercial rather than risk-based — some firms sell weekend holding as a paid checkout add-on, others limit it to certain account types. Check before you buy the challenge.

## Frequently Asked Questions

At most firms, yes. 26 of the 40 CFD firms publishing a policy allow it with no condition, 13 attach one, and none ban it outright.

Holding through the weekend exposes the firm to gap risk at Sunday's open, which it cannot hedge while markets are closed. Several firms price that risk as an optional extra rather than refusing it.

Markets can reopen at a materially different price from Friday's close. A stop loss does not protect you across a gap, so a weekend position can breach a daily loss limit before you are able to act.

Not always. Some firms publish them as separate rules and permit overnight positions while restricting weekend ones. Where a firm lists them together, the same verdict applies to both.

Rules change without notice and vary by account type. Confirm with the firm before you trade.
