The first thing I want to say is: don’t have unrealistic expectations. We test, develop, and update a lot of things, but this product was created for an extremely aggressive environment. GFT’s instant accounts are more of a marketing gimmick than a financial product. This account is designed so that the user will never receive a payout, or the payout will be negligible, or the user will receive it once and then lose the account. We’ve thoroughly examined their terms and conditions, how they operate, and everything else that could help us in our work. Here are some observations every user should be aware of.
1. The biggest problem with these accounts is the payout limit: if even a single day yields a profit exceeding 20% of the total payout amount, the payout is capped. If you trade with an average profit of $500–$1,000 per day, you can only expect a payout once your total profit reaches at least $5,000. The system will automatically count your day with a $1,000 profit as your largest. Your account may have $4,999, but because of this rule, you still won’t be able to receive a payout. The more profitable your most successful day is, the more profit you need to accumulate to qualify for a payout.
For example, DOTS ONE has trades where it can achieve a 3% take-profit (in a single day). This means you’ll need to accumulate a 15% profit to qualify for a withdrawal!
However, we’ve solved this problem with a new trade management system.
2. You’re better off not using a VPS. GFT is a company that monitors its clients very closely and tries to avoid paying out your funds by any legal means possible. Sometimes they may cite the fact that someone traded on another account from that IP address or location (and when using a VPS, IP address matches are possible). They also often request VPS purchase details to verify that the VPS belongs to you. It’s better not to take the risk and avoid using a VPS altogether, or to purchase a dedicated VPS with a unique IP address.
3. Remember when I talked about the rule of trade consistency? Chapter One. Well, here’s the thing. Sometimes a broker may intentionally create a huge spread or delays to increase your trade’s profit. It sounds absurd, but it’s true. The trade closes 200–300 pips beyond the specified point. Imagine your spread is 200–300. You’ll make a much larger profit, but you’ll also need to accumulate a much larger amount to receive your payout. This issue cannot be mitigated; it occurs on the broker’s end, and we have no control over it. However, this doesn’t happen often — we’ve recorded only three such cases over the past three years (based on historical data).
4. Don’t expect payouts every two weeks. This is a trap devised by GFT. You don’t need to base your plans on their payout schedule. Just reach your profit target and wait for your payout. It may take 2–3 months to reach your profit target, and that’s perfectly normal. According to our data, it takes the bot an average of 2.5–3.5 months to earn one full payout (reach the 5% target). Lowering the target — for example, to 2%—won’t “speed things up.”

Raw statistics
And now, the raw statistics for the past 3.5 years. These are based on a 99% tick history, but they are almost always very close to the actual statistics in the future (as practice has shown).
On average, the bot requires 5 to 7 standard GFT payout cycles (2 weeks each) (2.5–3.5 months) to generate a single confirmed payout.
Total amount of successful payouts: Approximately $58,000–$61,000 over 3.5 years.
Number of payouts: Over 3.5 years, the bot manages to accumulate the necessary amount and lock in a profit 14 times. That’s 4 payouts per year, or 20% annually. But don’t forget that this 20% is FREE MONEY — in other words, it’s effectively passive income.
