At Tycoon Funded, we strive to maintain an open and inclusive trading environment for all traders who adhere to our Terms of Use. While we encourage diverse trading styles, strategies, and techniques, certain practices that exploit or abuse the simulated trading environment are strictly prohibited.
Our Commitment to Fair Trading
We expect traders to approach their simulated accounts as they would live accounts. Any form of cheating, fraud, or abuse undermines the integrity of the trading environment and violates Tycoon Funded’s Terms of Use (ToU). Such violations may result in:
Warnings
Account suspensions
Account termination
We strongly encourage all traders to review this policy and the Tycoon Funded ToU in full to ensure compliance and avoid unintended consequences.
Prohibited Strategies
Below are examples of strategies that violate our rules:
Microscalping: Extremely rapid trades within seconds to exploit minimal price changes.
Tick Scalping and High-Frequency Trading (HFT): Automated trading systems executing numerous trades in short time intervals.
Arbitrage: Strategies such as reverse arbitrage, latency arbitrage, or hedge arbitrage that exploit price discrepancies.
Use of Demo-Specific Exploits: Leveraging demo-specific errors or features, such as delayed data feeds or platform freezing.
Copy Trading Services: Using third-party account management or “pass your challenge” services.
Cheating and Abuse Are Prohibited
Strategies designed to exploit the simulated environment for risk-free or unrealistic profits are not allowed. Examples include:
Exploiting demo server errors such as platform or data freezing.
Trading on delayed data feeds or charts to gain an unfair advantage.
Using strategies that work exclusively in demo environments but fail in live markets.
These practices conflict with our commitment to providing a fair and realistic trading experience.
Fair Trading Practices
This list of prohibited strategies is not exhaustive. Any account employing strategies deemed unfair, unrealistic, or designed to exploit the demo environment will not remain eligible for trading.
