At FundedSquad, we maintain a strict zero-tolerance policy toward any trading behavior designed to exploit demo account environments or bypass fair trading practices. Any strategy that attempts to generate artificial, risk-free, or manipulated profits is strictly forbidden and will result in immediate disqualification.
Examples of Prohibited Strategies Include:
Platform Manipulation
Exploiting platform or server issues, such as freezing or glitches in demo environments
Trading on delayed or outdated price feeds or charts not reflecting real-time market data
Arbitrage & Latency Exploits
Latency arbitrage: taking advantage of pricing delays between brokers or feeds
Hedge arbitrage: using multiple accounts to profit from mismatched execution
High-frequency trading (HFT) and tick scalping via bots or automated systems
Risk Manipulation Strategies
Martingale strategies: increasing lot size after a loss to recover prior losses
Layering
Definition: Having 3 or more open positions at the same time on a single asset.
This is to prevent excessive exposure and risk buildup on a single trading pair.
All Or Nothing
Using full margin, unreasonably large lot sizes, or positioning without regard to account size or market conditions
These behaviors reflect unsustainable trading and violate our principles of long-term risk management
