EA/Bots/Algorithmic Trading

• Ownership: You must be able to prove that you are the sole owner of the bot or strategy, and that no one else has access to or is using it. This ensures that the bot/algorithm is not being shared with other traders or firms.
• We scan to ensure there are no similar orders on other accounts. We will also require a live video of you enabling the code on your own PC.
• Exclusive Use: While you may use the bot on your personal accounts, using it across multiple firms is against Tradeify's policy. The bot should be solely for your own use within Tradeify.
• No High-Frequency Trading (HFT) Bots: Personal bots are allowed as long as they are not high-frequency trading (HFT) bots. Tradeify has specific risk measures in place to detect and monitor such activities.
• Compliance and Verification: Tradeify reserves the right to request information or documentation if our risk measures flag your account for potential violations of these guidelines.

Microscalping (only applicable to the funded stage)

• You must meet BOTH of the below two criteria to pass the microscalping rule:
  • Over 50% of your trades are longer than 10 seconds
  • Over 50% your profit must come from trades held longer than 10 seconds.

Maximum Account Idle Time (Funded Accounts)

• To keep your funded account active, you must place at least one trade per week (Monday through Friday). This is per account, not per user.
• Failure to do so may result in your account being marked as inactive.

Copy Trading

• You may only group trade between accounts you own and manage. Copying other strategies or engaging in copy trading with others is not permitted.
• If you choose to use third-party trade copiers, you do so at your own risk. We are not responsible for any errors they may cause, and support for such issues is beyond our scope.

News Trading, Dollar Cost Averaging, Flipping, and Scaling

• We do not have any rules against or guidelines around trading news events, Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA), flipping, or scaling.

Daily Loss Limit

• NEVER use the Daily Loss Limit as a stop loss — System protection may not be effective during extreme volatility
• Using the DLL as a stop may cause your account to breach the Trailing Max Drawdown due to slippage in volatile markets.

Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)

• Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) refers to entering a trade with multiple executions at different price points from the initial entry.
• DCA is allowed, but it should always be part of a structured strategy. It is discouraged to "average into oblivion" involving continuously adding to a losing position without a clear strategy, until the trade reaches breakeven or a slight profit.

Hedging & Trading Micros or Minis Rules

• Minis and micros may now be held at the same time.

• Two things still apply:

  • Your combined position must stay within your account's contract limit, counted at 10 micros = 1 mini.
  • A mini and a micro held in opposing directions on the same or a correlated product is still a hedging violation. Long MES + Short NQ is prohibited — not because of contract size, but because it is a hedge.

• This rule applies across ALL accounts under your control, not just within a single account.

Simulated Funded Accounts

• An individual user may have up to 5 Simulated Funded Accounts at any time
• A household is also restricted to 5 Simulated Funded Accounts at any time

Trading Hours

• On regular days, a trading day at Tradeify spans from 6:00 PM ET to 5:00 PM ET the next calendar day. All positions must be closed by 4:45 PM Eastern Time Monday through Friday, before the daily maintenance break. If you have open positions when the market closes, Tradeify will automatically close them for you. This automatic closure will NOT result in account failure or loss of your account. However, you may experience slippage or unfavorable fills.
