No. Every EverFunded account must be traded by the person whose identity verification it carries. Nobody else may trade it, you may not share its login, and you may not sell, give away or transfer it.
Holding several accounts yourself is allowed: up to 4 active 2-Step, 1-Step and Instant accounts combined, and one Flash at a time, whether it is in evaluation or funded. See How many accounts can I hold at once?.
Allowed and not allowed
Allowed | Not allowed |
Holding several accounts in your own name, within the account limits, and trading each of them yourself. | Anyone else trading your account, whether a friend, a relative or a paid account manager. |
Copying trades between your own accounts, in the same direction, up to $500,000 of simulated capital in total across the linked accounts and only with tools we permit (Terms §10.2). | Giving anyone your login details (Terms clause 4.1). |
People in the same household each holding their own accounts, as long as each person verifies and trades their own. We may limit the number of accounts per person or household (Terms §3.4). | Selling, giving away or transferring an account, including a funded one. |
Opening an account with someone else's documents, or trading an account verified to someone else. | |
Paying someone to trade your account or pass an evaluation for you. | |
Copying another person's trades into your account, even with their consent (Terms clause 10.1). |
You are responsible for all activity under your account (Terms clause 4.1).
Examples:
You buy two 1-Step accounts and trade both yourself. Allowed.
Your partner wants to try trading. They buy their own account, verify it and trade it. Allowed. Trading on your account instead is not.
You pass and want to sell the funded account to a friend. Not allowed.
A service offers to pass your evaluation for a fee. Not allowed, for you and for the service.
You are going on holiday and want a friend to keep your account ticking over. Not allowed. Opening or closing a trade counts as activity, and so does a change in the profit or loss of a position you hold open. Signing in to your Dashboard or your platform does not. An account with no activity may be closed for inactivity, and we e-mail you first (Terms §5.7). See What happens if I stop trading for a while?.
Key rule: The name on the account's verification is the person who may trade it; see How to complete identity verification: documents and common fixes. Sharing, transfer and third-party trading are prohibited practices, and the Terms set out what can follow; a person reviews any individual case. See Which trading practices are prohibited?. We will never ask for your trading password.
Someone else has your login, or you have an ownership question
If you think someone else has accessed your account:
If they may know your Dashboard password, change it now: on the Dashboard sign-in page, choose Forgot password?, enter your e-mail address and choose Send Reset Link.
Message us in the chat straight away and ask for a person.
Send the account number, what you noticed and when you noticed it, and say whether your platform login details may have been seen too. Do not put your password or a login code in the message, and if you forward an e-mail, remove any password, code or link first.
If you want to change the e-mail address or name on your own account: that is not a transfer, but it is tied to your verification, so a person handles it. See I can't log in or didn't receive my credentials.
If you have been told your account broke this rule: that is a question about your account, so a person handles it. See My account failed or was closed: what happened?.
