GENERAL TRADING RULES
Trade with integrity.
Hedging Within the Same Account
Opposing positions within one account are permitted only where they are consistent with the platform and program rules. They must not be used to bypass a loss or risk limit.
Hedging Across Multiple Accounts
Coordinated opposite positions across accounts, or activity designed to manufacture a pass or avoid risk, is prohibited.
Expert Advisors / EAs
Automated strategies may be used when they do not exploit platform weaknesses, copy another trader, create abusive order traffic, or breach any account condition.
Weekend and Overnight Holding
Overnight and weekend positions are permitted unless a specific instrument, platform condition, or account term says otherwise. Traders remain responsible for gaps and resulting drawdown.
High-Frequency Trading
Ultra-fast order activity, latency exploitation, quote stuffing, and strategies that depend on execution defects are not permitted. Normal algorithmic trading must remain orderly and risk-controlled.
Toxic Trading Behaviour
Abusive patterns such as one-sided betting, grid or martingale exposure, system exploitation, account churning, and reckless position sizing may be treated as a rule violation.
Copy Trading
Copying trades between accounts or from another person is not permitted where it creates coordinated or non-independent trading. Each account must reflect the account holder's own strategy.
Account Sharing
Accounts are personal and may not be shared, managed, sold, or operated by another person.
Payout Eligibility and Window
After completing 7 funded trading days and satisfying the applicable requirements, close active positions and submit a request through the available payout process. Payouts remain subject to verification, compliance review, and the applicable payout window.
