(7) Responsible trading

a. The Responsible Trading Policy of TradingFunds aims to promote fair and ethical trading practices among traders while prohibiting fraudulent and gambling-related activities. Traders are required to follow the following guidelines:

b. General Trading Rules: Traders are prohibited from using strategies, software, or technologies that provide an unfair advantage or contravene standard financial market practices. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of slow or external data feeds, challenge passing/account management services, and combinations of trades. Additionally, the following specific trading strategies are strictly prohibited:

Hedging

Martingale

Tick scalping

Reverse arbitrage trading

Latency arbitrage trading

Hedge arbitrage trading

Grid trading

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)

Engaging in any of these strategies will result in immediate account closure and possible forfeiture of funds.

c. Risk Management Rules mandate traders to monitor their accounts and limit risk-taking behaviour. Traders must avoid situations such as risking 100% or more of their drawdown limits in open trades. If a trader breaches any of these guidelines, TradingFunds may take action, such as resetting the account, refusing withdrawal, or terminating the account altogether.

d. Automated Trading Rules allow traders to use risk management EAs and copy trading EAs if they comply with the General Trading and Risk Management Rules. However, the use of MQL5 signal services or directly copying trades from another TradingFunds Trader is prohibited. High-frequency trading (HFT) strategies or e-trading protocols are also prohibited and will lead to a termination without a refund.

e. If a trader violates any of the rules outlined in this policy, TradingFunds reserves the right to take action, including immediate termination of the account with no refund issued. If a trader collides with another TradingFunds Trader to violate the rules, all involved accounts will be terminated with no refund issued. TradingFunds also reserves the right to terminate accounts with reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing.

f. In order to safeguard the simulated accounts, relationships with our trading software partner and support the success of our traders, we carefully monitor every account for any indications of gambling or reckless trading behaviour. Specifically, we are looking out for the following situations:

Trading in a manner that risks 100% or more of your drawdown limits across open trades. For example, opening trades with a total risk of 8% or 10% if the maximum loss is also 8% or 10%.

If we identify any reckless behaviour that breaches our guidelines, TradingFunds reserves the right to take action against the trader. Accounts are reviewed manually on a regular basis, particularly during key events such as account assessments, account scaling, or withdrawal requests.

g. In the event of any signs of gambling or an “all-or-nothing” mentality, or if an account is deemed extremely high risk, we may take any of the following actions:

Reset the Evaluation account to Level 1

Reduce the pay-outs to 25%.

Refuse withdrawal requests.

Refuse to scale the account.

Terminate the account entirely.

Our ultimate goal is to create a safe and responsible trading environment for all of our traders, and these measures are in place to help ensure that outcome.

(8) Trading Rules

Here are the rules that traders must follow:

Max Relative Drawdown Rule (1-Step Evaluations): The account balance or equity cannot fall to or below 8% of the account balance. The 8% relative drawdown will trail until it reaches the starting balance, and then it will be fixed.

Max Total Loss (2-Step Evaluation): The account balance or equity cannot fall to or below 10% of the account balance.

Responsible Trading Policy: The trader must follow the rules on the website, including the General Trading Rules, Risk Management Rules, and Automated Trading Rules.

Inactivity Rule: If no trade has been placed within a 30 day period, the account may be terminated without a refund.

Trading Behaviour: The trader must continue to use the same strategy as during the evaluation.

Minimum trading days: A ‘trading day’ qualifies only if the trader achieves a minimum gain of 0.5% on that day.

Traders are required to display a logical approach to risk management throughout their trading month. We believe in allowing flexibility and do not impose limitations on your risk or lot size in specific situations. However, it is essential that you maintain a consistent level of risk throughout each trading month. To ensure this, we expect our traders to adhere to the following guidelines:

Consistent Daily Risk: Traders are expected to employ a consistent level of risk on a daily basis.
Consistent Trading Style: Traders should maintain a consistent trading style throughout their trading month. While it is possible to utilize multiple styles, if you choose to do so, it is important to maintain a consistent pattern throughout the month. All your IP addresses should be from your billing location, if there is a specific reason why your IP address needs to rotate or you will be travelling please email support@tradingfunds.com to inform our accounts team. 

Avoid Drastic Risk Increases or illogical trading behaviour: Traders should refrain from significantly increasing their risk at any point during their trading activities. It is important to maintain a measured and balanced approach to risk management.

c. Breaking any of these rules may result in account termination, a reduction of profit split, a withdrawal being refused, a scaling request being rejected, or the trader being required to re-attempt the evaluation. TradingFunds reserves the right to change the rules at any time.

d. We allow the use of any risk management EA or Trading Bot as long as they are not used in the following ways:

Martingale

Tick scalping

Reverse trading

Latency trading

Hedge trading

Arbitrage trading

It is a violation if this rule is broken. We reserve the right to terminate any accounts that use any of these EA strategies.

(9) Guidelines

a. Upon registration as a Trader, TradingFunds will provide you with access to the guidelines associated with the Services.
