What is considered 'gambling behavior' and why is it prohibited?

Defines gambling behavior and why it can affect your evaluation.

Aurex Funded exists to identify disciplined traders, not lucky trades. Reaching the profit target alone does not guarantee approval — every account is reviewed for compliance with all trading rules and for signs of reckless risk-taking. The following are treated as gambling behavior:

• Oversized position sizing compared to your normal risk profile.

• Passing the evaluation with one unusually large trade.

• Risking nearly your entire drawdown allowance on a single trade.

• Revenge trading or emotional, all-or-nothing behavior.

• Random or extreme increases in lot size purely to reach the target.
