Is holding open positions overnight and over the weekend (swing trading) allowed in Futures accounts?

Futures Prime

It is not allowed to keep positions open overnight in Futures Prime accounts.

Holding overnight positions is considered a risky trading strategy which we want to avoid; therefore, any positions that are still open 5 minutes before the new trading day (15:55CT) on Futures Prime accounts will be force-closed by our Risk Managers.

Futures Classic

It is allowed to keep positions open overnight in our Futures Classic accounts, but not over the weekend.

You must close any open positions by Friday at market closing. We consider holding positions over the weekend in high-risk trading to protect our traders. If you leave positions open over the weekend, this will be regarded as a breach of our rules.
