The funded account rules repeat it under Not Allowed as it is prohibited to use automated high-frequency trading. The word automated attaches to high-frequency, not to trading in general, and no separate clause bans EAs, bots or algorithmic systems.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:24px 0 6px;\">Without discretion means what it says<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">DayTraders states the HFT check is flagged by its system without discretion, so there is no appeal to intent. If your system trips the frequency threshold it is flagged whether or not you meant to run an HFT strategy. Since DayTraders does not publish the threshold, confirm your expected trade rate with support before you deploy anything fast.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:24px 0 6px;\">Hedging across accounts is prohibited<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">It is prohibited to be long in one account and short in another. If you run one system across several DayTraders accounts, it must never take opposing sides of the same instrument.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:24px 0 6px;\">Dollar cost averaging and news trading are both allowed<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">DCA is permitted in the evaluation and on Pro accounts. News trading is allowed, though DayTraders advises caution because liquidity drops and volatility rises, which can produce unfavourable fills.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:24px 0 6px;\">The rules that decide whether an automated system can actually pass<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">Three numeric rules matter more than the automation policy itself. A 50 percent consistency rule applies during evaluation, tightening to 30 percent on Pro accounts and 20 percent on S2F. Every trading day must clear a minimum simulated profit to count, from $100 on the 25k up to $400 on the 300k, and that applies to funded accounts too. And you must keep minimum activity in each rolling 30-day cycle. A system that produces one large day and several tiny ones will struggle with all three.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:17px;font-weight:700;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:24px 0 6px;\">Monitor your own drawdown<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">DayTraders asks Rithmic account holders to keep R Trader Pro open to watch the max drawdown and close trades manually if needed, and states directly that you should not rely on the auto-close feature as a safety net. It also will not close your position at 4:59 PM ET or adjust an account blown by a position left open through the close.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:22px;font-weight:800;color:#ffffff;font-family:Poppins,Arial,sans-serif;margin:32px 0 12px;\">Final Comments<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size:15px;color:rgba(226,232,240,0.9);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;line-height:1.85;margin:0 0 14px;\">Automation rules are one of the fastest moving parts of any prop firm rulebook, and they are also one of the most expensive to get wrong.
