Are EAs and Trade Copiers Allowed?

At The Skilled Trader, we support traders who use technology responsibly to enhance their performance — but always within fair trading standards.

EAs are allowed, provided they are personally developed or configured by the trader to reflect their own trading strategy or logic.
However, the use of commercially sold or mass-distributed EAs that are known for exploiting platforms, latency, or arbitrage mechanisms is strictly prohibited.

Trade copiers are permitted only between accounts owned by the same trader.
Copy trading between different users (friends, family, or third parties) is not allowed under any circumstances.

Any EA or copier activity that suggests automation abuse, coordinated trading, or third-party account management may result in immediate disqualification and account termination.

At The Skilled Trader, we encourage the use of technology to improve performance, not to bypass discipline or risk management — the core values of every professional trader.
