What trading methods are prohibited?

Updated this week

You can be any type of trader — Scalper, Swing Trader, or Day Trader.
We value your skill, and for that reason, the following are strictly prohibited:

  • Expert Advisors (EAs)

  • Trading bots

  • AI-based trading

  • High-Frequency Trading (HFT)

  • Gap trading

  • Server spamming

  • Hedging

  • Reverse arbitrage

  • Tick scalping

  • Opposite account trading

  • Copy trading

  • Account management by others

  • Signal-based trading (using signals)

Additionally, it is forbidden to exploit any technical bugs on the MetaTrader 5 platform, engage in arbitrage using price latency, or create two parallel accounts to execute opposite trades.

Traders with strong risk management and real skills are able to profit consistently from the market without relying on these methods.

Please also note that most of the above techniques are commonly used not by consistent traders, but by those attempting to exploit the system for quick and dishonest gains.

If any of the above prohibited strategies are used, both your Challenge and Live accounts will be terminated.
