N P Financials AGREEMENT

N P Financials AGREEMENT
The N P Financials Agreement (the “Agreement”) sets forth the terms and conditions governing your relationship with N P Financials Pty Ltd (the “Prop Company”). In this Agreement, the undersigned trader is referred to as “Trader” or “You.”

WHEREAS, the Prop Company is a proprietary trading company that invests its own capital in financial markets, and

WHEREAS, the Prop Company may, from time to time, allocate portions of its capital to be traded by You on terms contained herein or as posted with a feeder program that evaluates traders who demonstrate sufficient skill and risk management.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the parties agree as follows:

1. PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT

The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the terms and conditions under which the trader may trade the Prop Company capital.
​
2. SERVICES PROVIDED

Upon acceptance of Trader’s qualification after successful completion of an assessment or evaluation program, the Prop Company shall create and fund account (the “Account”) and provide the Trader with the credentials to access and trade the Account.
​
3. TRADER REPRESENTATIONS
​
3.1 The Trader is a natural person, of sound mind, legal age and legal competence.
​
3.2 The Trader is not relying on investment advice provided by the Prop Company or any other entity in making its trading decisions.
​
3.3 The activities of the Trader under this Agreement are not prohibited under any law or contract to which the Trader or the Prop Company is subject. In the event that such prohibitions come to light after the effective date of this Agreement, the Trader acknowledges that this Agreement may be terminated without notice.

3.4 The Trader acknowledges that the Account and trading platform are provided by a third party broker(s) and the Trader has no privity with the brokers used by the Prop Company to execute the trades and Trader may not contact said brokers directly regarding any trade dispute or other issue. All such matters must be directed to The Prop Company to resolve.
​
3.5 The Trader has full power and authority to execute this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Trader, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

4. AUDITION FEE & THE ACCOUNT

The Audition fee is non-refundable. In fact, it is the only investment you’ll ever make into our program. No hidden fees. No monthly subscriptions. If you fail in our Audition, you need to purchase a new Audition with its associated fee. There are a few reasons. First and foremost, the fee covers various operating expenses for NPF-Trader— including technology platforms, personnel, customer service functions, marketing and all the healthy expenditures that make a company strong.

In addition, the fee ensures that the trader is committed to the process and committed to successful, disciplined trading practices. When a trader has skin in the game, so to speak, they are incentivized to treat their account responsibly and with the utmost care. After all, the fee is but a small token of commitment rewarded with hundreds of thousands of dollars in real capital to trade. The best part of this arrangement for traders is that it is the only capital they risk. Traders cannot lose more than this fee, as losses on a live funded account are covered by NPF.

The NPF-Trader Audition fee serves as a filter for serious traders. The NPF-Trader community only works when it is comprised of experienced traders that can consistently generate a profit. With limited resources, the NPF-Trader Audition process reveals those who are committed and responsible traders.

At the end of the day, the NPF-Trader program is an extremely valuable service— a win-win for everyone— and the service is accurately priced to support a symbiotic relationship.

Upon passing the Audition referenced in the N P Financials Terms & Conditions, Trader will need to provide The Prop Company with valid photo ID, and address verification document (bank statement or utility bill dated no more than 90 days prior) and wire details (inclusive of Bank name, Bank address, Trader name, Trader Address, Routing number or SWIFT, IBAN or account number) before Trader receives the Account. Trading profits will only be paid to Trader.
​
Upon creation of the Account, You will receive an email (the “Welcome Email”) setting forth the following details:
​
Account Login Credentials
Allocated Capital
Risk Management and Program Rules
Trader Portal Credentials
Profit Splits

You accept full responsibility for monitoring the Account to ensure that trades have been executed correctly and to ensure that no unauthorized trading is occurring in the Account. You may not give control over the Account to any other person or entity and you may not control the Account of any other The Prop Company authorized trader. You shall maintain the confidentiality of the Account credentials and prevent the unauthorized use thereof at all times. If You become aware of any deliberate or inadvertent disclosure, loss, theft or unauthorized use of the Account credentials, You must notify The Prop Company immediately and request a new password.
​
To maintain the Account and continue as The Prop Company authorized trader, You must, at all times, adhere to the Risk Management and Program Rules. The Risk Management and Program Rules are an integral part of this Agreement. It is your responsibility as Trader to carefully read these Risk Management and Program Rules and to inform The Prop Company of any questions or objections that you may have regarding them before entering a trade in the Account. By entering your trading orders in the Account, you agree, represent, warrant and certify that you understand and accept these Risk Management and Program Rules, as they are set forth here and as may be amended from time to time by The Prop Company and sent to You by email. Any violation thereof will result in the closing of your account and termination as an authorized trader of The Prop Company. Additionally, the following actions may also result in the immediate closing of your account:
​
Exploiting errors or latency in the pricing and/or platform provided by the broker
Utilizing non-public and/or insider information
Front-running of trades placed elsewhere
Trading in concert with another person, another proprietary trading program or combination thereof
Trading in any way that jeopardizes the relationship The Prop Company has with a broker or may result in the canceling of trades
Trading in any way that creates regulatory issues for The Prop Company

5. PROFIT SPLITS & WITHDRAWALS

As an authorized trader for The Prop Company, The Prop Company agrees to pay you the percentage of profit generated on the account, as set forth in the Welcome Email. Withdrawal requests of profits will be processed on demand, but can be requested no more than once every 30 days. Withdrawals will be paid out via our accounts processing affiliate who will request certain documentation from You, including, but not limited to, valid government-issued photo ID, a recent address verification document and payment details. Upon processing of a withdrawal request, The Prop Company shall also withdraw its share of the trading profits from the account.
​
For example, let’s assume the following:
​
Beginning account balance – $100,000
Profit split 70%/ 30% in favor of You.
Account equity one month later is $120,000

You request a withdrawal of $10,000. $10,000 in profit will be withdrawn from the Account; Your $7,000 and Prop Account’s $3,000. The new Account Balance High Water Mark will be adjusted back to $110,000 for purposes of adherence to risk management and program rules going forward. Please note that upon requesting a withdrawal, your maximum trailing drawdown equity breach level will automatically lock in at your starting balance. Any profits above the highwater mark in the Account after a program rule is violated, will be distributed according to the established profit split.
​
6. TRANSMISSION OF ORDERS​
​
The Prop Company shall have no responsibility for delays in the transmission of orders due to disruption, failure or malfunction of communications facilities and shall not be liable for any claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to any person or entity arising other than as a direct result of The Prop Company’s gross negligence.
​
7. STOP LOSS, POSITION SIZE & TRADING LIMITS

Trading without a Stop-Loss is extremely risky and exposes you to unnecessary risk. Trading without a Stop-Loss is a soft breach, which means that our technology will close your position at prevailing market price if you trade without a stop.

You can put the stop at any distance whatsoever keeping in mind that our daily drawdown maximum limit is 4% and our trailing drawdown maximum limit is 5%. But you must put the stop as per our rule which you agree here before purchasing our audition.

It’s important that you add a Stop-Loss to all trades to avoid violating program terms, which could result in revocation of your trading account.

The Prop Company reserves the right to limit the number of open positions that Trader may enter or maintain in the Account. The Prop Company or the broker which The Prop Company designates reserve the right to refuse to accept any order.

8. TRADING HOURS

All references to The Prop Company hours of trading are in U.S. Eastern Time (“ET”) using a 12-hour format. Access to the market is typically available from 5:00 PM ET on Sunday to 4:00 PM ET on Friday, but The Prop Company reserves the right to suspend or modify its trading hours at any time and in such an event will inform clients in advance on a best-efforts basis of any changes in its operating hours. Trading hours by contract type may vary.

9. MODIFICATION OF TERMS

The Prop Company reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the risk management and program rules at any time and effective upon notice to You. Continued use of the Account after such notice shall constitute your acceptance thereof.

10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

The Trader shall perform its duties and otherwise conduct its trading activity in the Account as an independent contractor and not as an employee or agent of The Prop Company. Aside from adherence to the Risk Management and Program Rules, the Trader acknowledges that Trader, nor any of its officers or employees is an officer, director or agent of The Prop Company and that The Prop Company is not, and will not be, responsible for any trading decisions made on behalf of the Trader and may not commit the Trader to any action. The Trader represents that The Prop Company does not have the power either to control the Trader or to exercise any dominating influences over its activities. The parties hereto understand and acknowledge that this Agreement shall not create or imply any agency relationship among the parties, and the Trader will not commit The Prop Company in any manner except when a commitment has been specifically authorized in writing by The Prop Company.
​
11. INDEMNIFICATION

The Trader hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold The Prop Company and its officers, directors, employees, corporate affiliates, white label partners and agents harmless from any loss, damage, liability, claim, cost, awards and expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of the Trader’s illegal and/or wrongful actions and/or any breach of Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, this indemnity clause shall apply to all allegations of wrongdoing including allegations of illegal use of insider information and all transactions requiring corrective action. If The Prop Company is informed of any pending action or possible loss against the Trader, The Prop Company may set off any monies due to the Trader in amounts sufficient to cover any pending arbitration, litigation, customer complaints, unsecured debits and unpaid expenses in connections with the Trader’s trading.
​
12. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

All copyright, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property rights (“IP”) in and related to The Prop Company shall remain at all times the sole and exclusive property of The Prop Company and/or its 3rd party service providers and Traders shall have no right or interest in the IP, except for the right to access and use the Account as specified herein. Trader acknowledges that the IP is confidential and has been developed through the expenditure of substantial skill, time, effort and money.
