Hedging is defined as the act of opening two opposite positions on the same asset, regardless of differences in lot size or calculated risk. This policy is in place to ensure fair and transparent trading practices within our community and to uphold the integrity of our trading environment. Hedging can lead to confusion in risk management and may create unfair advantages or disadvantages for traders.

It is essential to successfully complete each challenge individually. Importantly, you cannot duplicate trades (whether executed manually or via EA) from a master account to an evaluation account or from one evaluation account to another. This applies to both the trades and trade ideas. After successfully passing the evaluation process, you have the flexibility to either combine the Master/Funded accounts into a single account or keep them separate, based on your personal preference.

Gambling: You cannot gamble your way through a challenge phase. GFT defines as gambling:
-Taking more than 50% of your trades in under a one minute hold time
-Opening 5 positions in a loosing trade, encompassing both entry and subsequent positions.
-Opening one trade and adding subsequent positions to the same trade/instrument traded without making previous positions "risk free" by moving stop loss to breakeven, holding all the positions together untill you pass/fail, without any other trade on the account.

This last point is a behaviour totally ALLOWED on our Swing plus challenge since it is a program entirely designed for swing traders and please note that the risk team may decide to allow it also on the other programs, after a comprehensive analysis of the trading behaviours the trader has in place in his other previous or active accounts.

IMPORTANT: Any trader idenfitied as "gambler" will NOT be in any way banned from the platform and will have the choice of getting refunded or getting a free retry.
