For Traders Trading Rules

The rules that decide whether a For Traders account passes, stays funded or breaches. News and weekend trading are permitted by default, and the tighter conditions sit around automation, copying and concentration.

Which rules actually end accounts

News trading is allowed without restriction during every forex challenge phase. On forex master accounts new trades cannot be opened within a 5 minute window around a high impact release, though holding through news is permitted. Crypto and futures accounts carry no news restriction.

Positions may be held overnight and over the weekend on every account type and at every stage. There is no Friday close requirement and no add-on is needed for it.

Expert advisors are permitted only as decision support, and any advisor, script or bot that opens, closes, manages or modifies positions without direct and continuous input is prohibited. Copying trades into a For Traders account from an external account, signal service or third party tool is prohibited, while copying out to your own external accounts is allowed. Third party management and password sharing are grounds for closure.

Hedging within a single account is not prohibited. Offsetting positions across multiple For Traders accounts is, along with hedge, reverse and latency arbitrage. Positions must be held at least 5 seconds, no single instrument or direction may use more than 40% of available margin, and grid trading, tick scalping and martingale style loss recovery are prohibited.

For Traders rules: common questions
