Engaging in inappropriate risk management practices, such as gambling, “all-in” trading, or excessively leveraging positions, is strictly prohibited. Trading activity that resembles gambling—such as consistently placing trades prior to news releases or other binary events—will not be tolerated.
Excessive risk-taking and gambling are defined by the percentage of an account risked in a single trade or across a series of trades or positions. An “all-in” trade refers to committing all or a substantial portion of available capital or margin to a single trade. Similarly, excessive and improper use of leverage occurs when a trader risks a significant portion of their account in one trade or across a series of one-directional trades and positions.
If you are found to be engaging in such activities, the Company reserves the right to immediately close your account. Such closure may include the forfeiture of any fees owed to you by the Company, in the Company’s sole discretion.
Q: When is my trading activity considered a breach?
A: Your account will be flagged for a breach if 70% or more of your trades or 70% or more of your total profit comes from trades that last less than 10 minutes.
Keep in mind that this rule helps ensure appropriate trading practices and aligns with our policies.
