At Xpert Funding, every trade must remain open for at least one (1) minute after execution. This means traders cannot open and close positions within seconds to capture micro-movements or exploit price latency.
The purpose of this rule is to ensure that all trades reflect genuine market participation rather than automated tick-scalping or system manipulation.
Why does Xpert Funding enforce this rule?
This policy exists to:
Maintain a fair and transparent trading environment for all participants.
Prevent tick-scalping, latency arbitrage, and other forms of artificial trading behavior.
Protect the accuracy of our data and the stability of our simulation environment.
By holding trades for at least one minute, traders demonstrate real intent and maintain healthy market participation metrics.
What happens if I close trades before one minute?
Occasional accidental closures for example, due to volatility, sudden spikes, or manual error are typically overlooked.
However, repeated or intentional violations of the rule will trigger a review by our Risk Team. Traders who consistently close trades before the one-minute mark may face consequences such as:
Account review or temporary suspension
Profit deduction from affected trades
Permanent termination in cases of repeated non-compliance
Tip: Always ensure your strategy allows trades to remain active for at least one minute to avoid being flagged.
