Flexible means you can run your own EAs to place trades for you, although some firms still require human oversight, so it is worth confirming your EA type with support first. Risk Management means EAs are limited to risk tools such as lot size calculation, stop loss and take profit management, break even, and general risk control, rather than placing trades on their own.
