User: Utsav VyasAccount ID: 514925353Status: Live Account Breached & Payout RejectedGoat Funded Trader has terminated my live account and blocked my dashboard access based on an automated "coordinated group trading" flag.The firm's automated report claims an IP match and trade correlation. However, I trade 100% manually using only the MetaTrader 5 mobile application on my cell phone data. The IP overlap is a natural result of mobile carrier CGNAT networks, which assign the same public IP to thousands of mobile phones simultaneously.Any trade execution timing similarities are a pure statistical coincidence from standard manual breakout trading on NSDQ and Gold. I have zero affiliation with the comparison accounts flagged in their system.I have submitted a formal appeal to riskteam@goatfundedtrader.com requesting a live video verification audit to prove my manual execution. I am posting this to ensure my case is manually reviewed by a human compliance officer rather than ignored by an automated script. I will update this review based on the firm's willingness to review my actual device data.

They are provide small payout and when you want big they are blocked you without reason fake reason like ip related and copy trading

Least Liked Aspect

Instant Dashboard Lockouts: The moment an automated system flags a potential breach, the firm instantly cuts off dashboard access. This prevents traders from downloading their own transaction logs or gathering evidence to defend themselves.Support Inability to Help: Frontline live chat support has zero authority or visibility over compliance decisions, forcing traders into stressful, slow email chains with an isolated Risk Team.Strict Automated Payout Rejections: The system aggressively uses automated "Copy" and "IP Match" tags to block payouts, frequently penalising innocent manual traders who trade on mobile data or execute at popular market times.

they are giving me fake reason i was never do like ip related and copy trading

Summary

The Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) Flaw: You trade exclusively on mobile data. Mobile network providers do not give every phone a unique public IP address. Instead, they route thousands of mobile devices in the same city through a single public IP pool. The system flagged a "shared IP connection" simply because other independent Goat Funded Trader users happened to be on the same cellular network in your region.Statistical Market Coincidence: The log shows your matching trades were on NSDQ (Nasdaq) and XAUUSD (Gold). These are the highest-volume, most heavily analyzed assets in retail trading. When a manual trader enters or exits a trade based on a widely watched technical indicator, a key support/resistance level, or the exact minute of the US market open, their trades will naturally execute within seconds of thousands of other traders.

I recently completed my 5 profitable days on an Instant Premium account with Goat Funded Trader and submitted my payout request. Two days later, my account was abruptly breached, with the Risk Team claiming I used a VPS. I strictly did not use any VPS, remote desktop, or similar services. All my trades were executed manually. I accessed my account using my personal laptop, my mobile phone, and my corporate work laptop. I have already emailed the Risk Team requesting technical proof and a manual review of my trading activity, which clearly reflects manual human execution, not automated bots. I am fully prepared to provide my local IP details and network proofs to clear this up. It is extremely frustrating to follow all trading rules flawlessly, only to be met with an automated ban upon payout simply for checking trades during work hours. I request that GFT's higher-tier support manually reviews this case, reinstates my account, and processes my rightfully earned payout.

I have traded with Goat Funded Trader since last year, followed every rule, and previously received my payouts without issues. However, my latest payout of $1333 was unjustly denied and my account breached under a completely bogus claim of "coordinated/copy trading" based on supposed shared IP connections. For weeks leading up to this, their dashboard was repeatedly throwing false "VPN detected" errors on my network. I contacted support multiple times with screen recordings proving my device had no active VPN, yet nothing was resolved. I trade on large shared institutional Wi-Fi networks where thousands of users route through the exact same public gateway IP. Flagging a shared public network IP as proof of collusion is completely flawed. Worse, their own trade report directly contradicts their accusation. Over 51% of the flagged "copied" trades were opened 1 to 3 minutes BEFORE my account even entered the market, and there was zero sub-second execution. It is mechanically impossible to copy a trade that does not exist yet. When I took this breakdown directly to their Discord community and laid out the facts, they realized I was right and had completely disproven their narrative with hard data. Instead of addressing the evidence or correcting the mistake, they immediately removed me from the server to silence the issue. Denying earned payouts based on faulty IP heuristics and banning traders the moment they prove their innocence is completely unacceptable. Trade here with extreme caution.

Coordinated group trading and shared IP connections

Summary

My payout of $1333 after split was rejected, and my account was breached for alleged copy trading due to matching IP addresses with other accounts. This is false: Network False Positive: I trade on shared campus/residence Wi-Fi where thousands of users share a single public NAT IP. Their platform repeatedly triggered false "VPN detected" flags on my network, which I previously reported to support with proof. A shared public gateway does not prove collusion. Contradictory Data: In their own trade report, over 51% of the flagged trades opened 1 to 3 minutes BEFORE my orders were placed, with zero sub-second execution. You cannot copy a trade that does not yet exist. When I raised these technical facts on their Discord server, they removed me from the server to silence the issue rather than review my logs.

I bought the "Instant" challenge. I followed every single rule perfectly: 1) every trade lasted over 2 minutes; 2) daily gain >0.5%; 3) 8 profitable trading days. I requested a payout, but they rejected it and closed my account! The reason? They claim that "someone"—or I—copied the trades. They sent a report showing trades with completely different lot sizes and entry/exit times separated by only 2 or 3 minutes. I should point out that I trade exclusively XAU/USD during London market hours—am I the only one who does that? It's madness! I contacted support via chat and was told to send an email; I sent the email, but after 10 days, NO ONE has bothered to reply. Let me start by saying that I am NOT part of any community, and I do not copy or use anyone's signals!! The same old reply they post on every review! 1) Over the past 10 days, I’ve emailed the address you provided, but never got a response. 2) Yesterday I used the live chat and was explicitly told they would *never* reply because, as far as they’re concerned, the case is closed. So, there’s no right of reply. 3) PROOF?? How on earth are you supposed to prove you *aren't* part of a group? Hahaha—you’ll have to explain that one to me. The proof is actually the file *you* sent (attached here), which shows that the transactions are COMPLETELY different!! There is no professionalism whatsoever. They’ve come up with a real doozy of a way to avoid paying.

I repeat: I did not violate any rules; my trading was perfect and fully compliant. They claim that I copied trades—or had them copied—which is something I *never* did! The report they sent shows trades executed just 2 or 3 minutes apart with completely different lot sizes, during the London market opening (8:30–9:30 Italian time). Am I the only one who trades this way? That’s impossible... it’s sheer madness!

I requested a payout on Wednesday September 16th, I waited till Friday as I was patient but still didn’t receive the payout. They then scheduled me for a meeting for today which is Tuesday 22 September and I booked the date but they didn’t send me the link to the meeting and I asked the agents and they also kept me waiting. I trusted GFT since it wasn’t first time getting a payout with them. It was a 5k instant hero funded account and I requested 216$.

Trading experience is moderate. Execution was fast. I traded XAUUSD and the spread was bigger always, which I did not like. The "6 Day 0.5% must be achieved" target seemed harder than 5% overall Target, because everyday is not same in trading. Added 15% consistency made it harder and more tight. Anyway I am not a PRO trader. I am average trader. So in my opinion GOATFUNDED is an excellent Prop Firm, no confusion, but unless a pro trader withdraw money from here is mostly a failed operation. I failed due to my FOMO activities. Not for these rules mentioned above. But I faced difficulties.

We’re glad you found the execution fast and your overall experience with GFT positive. 

We also appreciate your feedback on the XAUUSD spreads, trading-day requirement, and consistency rule. Most importantly, we’re glad you recognized that your results were ultimately affected by FOMO rather than the rules themselves.

I’ve had a really good overall experience with Goat Funded Trader so far. One thing that genuinely stood out to me is their support team, especially Isaac, one of the mods. He has been very responsive, helpful, and always willing to guide me whenever I had an issue or question. I also had an interesting experience with my Instant 150K account. The account was blocked due to 30 days of inactivity, and according to the policy, the company could have simply denied reopening it. However, after I contacted support and explained my situation, they actually provided the account back to me. I honestly appreciate that because not every prop firm would handle the situation this way. I’m currently using their Instant 200K account as well as the 150K account again, and so far the overall experience has been positive. The trading environment, support, and account management have all been good from my experience. I haven’t requested a payout yet, so I can’t comment on the payout process personally, but I’m hoping to reach my target soon and experience that part as well. So far, I’m genuinely happy with GFT and the way they have handled my concerns. My experience with the company has been positive, and I’m looking forward to continuing with them.
