Prohibited Trading – The Details

Written by Fundex Plus

Detailed rules on prohibited trading practices

🚫 Prohibited Trading Strategies at Fundex Plus

To maintain a fair and transparent trading environment, Fundex Plus strictly prohibits any trading activity that does not reflect genuine market participation.

Any attempt to exploit platform limitations, generate risk-free profits, manipulate trading conditions, or gain an unfair advantage will result in an immediate violation of our Terms of Service. No prior warning will be issued.

Evaluation and funded accounts must be traded with the same discipline, professionalism, and responsibility expected when managing real capital.

Any strategy designed to exploit or "game" the evaluation process will result in immediate account termination and may lead to a permanent ban from all Fundex Plus programs.

The use of account management services, challenge-passing services, or unauthorized copy trading is strictly prohibited. Detection of such activity may result in permanent loss of access to the Fundex Plus platform.


⚠️ Specific Examples of Prohibited Practices

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)

Using bots, algorithms, or automated systems to execute extremely high volumes of trades within milliseconds to exploit micro price movements.

These practices do not reflect normal market participation and are not permitted.


Latency Trading

Exploiting delays in pricing, execution, or market data feeds to generate unfair or risk-free profits.

Any attempt to benefit from latency-related inefficiencies is strictly prohibited.


Copy Trading from External Accounts

Copy trading is only permitted between accounts owned by the same trader.

❌ Not Allowed:

  • Copying trades from friends or family members

  • Purchasing trading signals

  • Copying trades from external providers

  • Selling trade signals for account execution


Hedging Across Multiple Accounts

Hedging is only permitted within a single account.

❌ Not Allowed:

  • Opening BUY positions on one account while simultaneously opening SELL positions on another account.

Such activity may result in immediate disqualification.


Multiple Account Hedging

Using multiple accounts to offset risk or create guaranteed outcomes is not considered legitimate trading activity.


Tick Scalping

Opening excessive numbers of trades with the sole purpose of capturing minimal price fluctuations over extremely short periods.


Grid Trading

Placing multiple layered buy and sell orders at fixed intervals without a clear directional trading strategy or market-based rationale.


Reverse Arbitrage

Exploiting price discrepancies, execution differences, or technical inefficiencies between brokers, platforms, or liquidity providers.


Group Trading

Coordinating identical trades across multiple traders or accounts, including identical entries, lot sizes, and execution timing.


Group Hedging

Working with other traders to open mirrored long and short positions across separate accounts in order to guarantee profits regardless of market direction.


Third-Party Account Management

Only the registered account holder may operate a Fundex Plus account.

❌ Prohibited Activities:

  • Account management services

  • Challenge-passing services

  • Trading-on-behalf arrangements

  • Shared account access

  • External traders managing your account


Martingale Strategy

Martingale-style trading is prohibited.

This includes systematically increasing position size after losses with the objective of recovering previous drawdown through progressively larger trades.

Such practices expose accounts to excessive risk and do not align with professional risk management standards.


High-Risk Trading Behavior

Fundex Plus does not permit trading behavior that demonstrates excessive or reckless risk-taking, regardless of profitability.

Accounts may be reviewed if they display:

  • Excessively large position sizes relative to account balance

  • Frequent exposure to maximum daily drawdown limits

  • Frequent exposure to maximum account drawdown limits

  • Trading without reasonable risk management

  • Excessive overleveraging to pursue short-term gains

  • Any behavior deemed inconsistent with sustainable professional trading practices


⚖️ Final Note

Trading at Fundex Plus must always reflect discipline, consistency, professionalism, and sound risk management.

Accounts that fail to meet these standards — even if profitable — may be disqualified, have profits removed, or be permanently excluded from the Fundex Plus ecosystem at the discretion of our Risk Management Team.

Our objective is to reward genuine trading skill, not strategies designed to exploit platform mechanics or create artificial performance results.
