What Trading Strategies Are Restricted or Prohibited on Funds.Pro?

At Funds.Pro, we are committed to maintaining a fair, transparent, and professional trading environment. To protect the integrity of our platform and ensure consistency with real market behavior, we strictly prohibit any trading strategy or behavior that manipulates, exploits, or circumvents the spirit of fair trading.

Violations of these rules may result in warnings, leverage reductions, challenge disqualifications, funded account termination, or permanent bans.

Here is a detailed breakdown of restricted and prohibited strategies on Funds.Pro:

1. Abuse of the System

• Any style of trading that does not reflect real market behavior is prohibited.

• Using the challenge as a loophole for risk-free profits is not allowed.

• Copy trading services, signal-following bots, or using third-party systems for automated execution are banned.

2. Gambling Behavior

• Trades taken without analysis or planning.

• Excessive risk: Margin usage above 70% or risking more than 1-2% of capital per trade.

• Reckless or revenge trading styles are not tolerated.

3. Quick Strike Method

• Ultra-fast scalping for small, quick profits based on short-term inefficiencies is restricted.

• This disrupts platform fairness and creates an unstable trading environment.

4. High-Frequency Trading (HFT)

• Use of systems that execute dozens or hundreds of trades within milliseconds is banned.

• This includes trading bots or software designed to overload or exploit the platform’s infrastructure.

5. Copy Trading

• Hedging is strictly not permitted

6. Hedging and Group Hedging

• Hedging is strictly not permitted

7. Arbitrage Trading

• Strategies based on exploiting price discrepancies between brokers or liquidity providers are not allowed.

8. Tick Scalping

• Trading based on ultra-small price movements with high frequency (tick-by-tick scalping) is restricted.

9. Grid Trading

• Placing a series of buy and sell orders at fixed price intervals to catch market movement is prohibited.

10. Latency Exploitation

• Profiting from server/data lag or execution delay to gain an edge is strictly banned.

11. Account Rolling

• Opening multiple challenge accounts and letting some fail just to sacrifice and pass others is considered a form of gambling and is not allowed.

12. One-sided Betting

• Opening large directional positions without proper analysis, especially during volatile news events, is not allowed.

13. Hyperactivity

• Excessive platform use such as:

  • More than 100 trades per day

  • More than 500 server messages per day

• These will result in warnings or automatic account restrictions.

14. Exploiting Freezing or Demo Server Glitches

• Taking trades during platform errors, glitches, or data freeze periods to gain advantage is not permitted.

15. Exploiting Low Liquidity

• Trading during low-volume periods (like dead zones between U.S. and Asia sessions) to guarantee profits is banned.

16. Account or Device Sharing

• Sharing your account or using someone else’s device to trade is strictly prohibited.

• Reselling or renting your funded account is also not allowed.

⚠️ Consequences of Violations

Funds.Pro continuously audits accounts for fair trading behavior. If any of the above strategies are detected:

• First-time violations may receive a warning or leverage adjustment.

• Repeated or severe violations may result in account termination or permanent ban.

• No refunds will be issued in case of banned or disqualified accounts.

✅ Stay Safe: Best Practices

• Trade as if it’s your real money.

• Focus on risk management, analysis, and consistency.

• Avoid shortcuts or “exploits” – they lead to disqualification, not success.
