# Everstrike Bonuses: Restrictions

Everstrike provides a trading bonus to new traders that meet certain requirements.&#x20;

The trading bonus is completely free of charge. It can be used as margin, and to open new positions on Everstrike. All profit made with the bonus can be withdrawn. However, to prevent abuse, it has certain restrictions in place:

* After opening a position with the bonus, new positions cannot be opened for the next **4 hours**.
* After using the bonus to place an order that **increases** your position, new orders cannot be placed for the next **10 minutes**.
* The bonus can only be used on the following trading pairs:&#x20;
  * BTC/USD
  * ETH/USD
  * BNB/USD

To remove these restrictions, users can do **one** of the following:

* Fund their account
* Reach $2,000 in total profit on the Everstrike Testnet
* Refer three friends to Everstrike

After doing **one** of the above, all restrictions will be immediately removed.
