To preserve trading integrity and community trust, our risk management policy targets high-risk or exploitative behaviors that may resemble gambling or manipulation. Our mission is to foster a safe and fair environment by encouraging sustainable, skill-based trading practices.
🚫 Identified Violations
Below are key behaviors that violate our risk management standards:
1. Account Rolling/Churning
Engaging in multiple challenge evaluations simultaneously to bypass fair evaluation. This tactic may simulate passing efforts without proving genuine trading ability.
2. Gambling Behavior
High-risk, impulsive trading with no defined plan or consistency—relying on luck rather than skill.
3. Group Hedging
Placing opposing trades across multiple accounts on the same symbol at the same time to manipulate outcomes. This practice undermines platform integrity.
4. Over-Exposure
Taking oversized trades relative to account size, potentially breaching drawdown limits or exposing the account to unsustainable risk.
