Prohibited strategies include exploiting unrealistic prices, arbitrage, latency trading, high-frequency trading, reverse trading, group hedging, toxic trading flow, gambling strategies, excessive risk-taking, overtrading, spamming and tick scalping.

Also; placing many trades within seconds of each other is a prohibited strategy and will breach the account as this is considered as spamming the order book which we do NOT allow.


What is considered gambling?


Gambling in trading refers to high-risk behaviors such as using excessive leverage, impulsive decision-making, trading around news events, or trading without proper risk management. This includes strategies that prioritize quick, large gains over consistent, calculated profits. Gambling-type trading is strictly prohibited, and any such activity will result in the removal of profits and potential account closure.

Signs of gambling behaviour include trading and or increasing risk during news events, abusing max daily DD in 1 trade or splitting large trades into smaller positions and drastically altering trade durations to capitalize on volatility. If these practices are violated, your account may be flagged and potentially terminated.

To avoid gambling, always adhere to a solid risk management plan, limit your risk per trade, and make decisions based on rational analysis rather than emotions or market hype. Our goal is to support traders who prioritize consistent, profitable strategies and responsible risk management.
