The FAQ permits proprietary automation subject to restrictions, but the checkout catalogue flags EAs as disallowed. Obtain written confirmation for the selected plan and platform before using automation.

Personal automated strategies and EAs are allowed, provided they are consistent with the trader's style and do not exploit system vulnerabilities, latency, or data feed anomalies. Strategies designed to manipulate the simulated environment are prohibited.

Permitted within one account. Coordinated opposing positions across accounts or firms are prohibited.

Tick harvesting, full porting and sub-minute positions at or near the contract limit are prohibited.

Manual scalping allowed. Tick scalping and trades closed within 2 minutes have their profits deducted (micro-scalping rule).

No universal per-trade percentage is published; gambling, all-in and abuse of margin, leverage or contract limits are prohibited.

Only between accounts owned by the same trader. Signals, passing services, group trading and EAs facilitating copy trading are prohibited.

Copy trading between your own accounts is allowed (e.g. between multiple GFF accounts in your name). Bundle discounts (2 or 3 accounts) are available and you can copy trades to all simultaneously. Cross-user copy trading is not addressed in the helpcenter.

Existing positions may remain open. No opening or closing within 3 minutes before or after high-impact news. Consequences include P&L removal, reduced leverage or account termination.

Evaluation phase (EOD, Sprint, FLEX)
No news trading restrictions.

Funded phase (all account types including Instant)
2-minute buffer around high-impact news events. Within 2 min before/after release you cannot open, close or trigger pending orders. Positions opened before the window may be held through the event.

Microscalping rule
EOD, Sprint, Instant: profits from trades closed within 2 minutes of opening are deducted (not a breach but profits invalid).
FLEX: microscalping rule does NOT apply.

Account closes after 30 consecutive days without trading.

15 consecutive days without trades results in account breach. Applies to both evaluation and funded accounts. Once breached, account cannot be reinstated and fees are non-refundable. Notify support in advance if you plan to be away.

One: 40% in evaluation and funded. Signature: 50% in both. Instant: 20%. If the best day exceeds the allowed share of total profit, continue trading until compliant.

No single day can represent more than:

• EOD Challenge — Evaluation: 50% of total profits. Funded: 30% during a payout period.
• Sprint Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: 35%.
• FLEX Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: none.
• Instant Funded — 20% (the tightest of all plans).
• Instant Lite — 15% for the 1st payout, 20% for the 2nd, 25% from the 3rd onwards.
• GOAT Daily — Evaluation: 40%. Funded: none.

Violating the rule blocks the next payout but does not close the account.

Overnight holding NOT permitted (all account types). All positions must be closed before the end of the trading session. Weekend holding also NOT permitted.

Cross-account arbitrage, latency or pricing-error exploitation, insider trading, front-running, third-party passing strategies and changing strategy between evaluation and funded trading. All-in, gambling and excessive exposure are prohibited. Trading is reviewed before funded account issuance.

• Tick scalping and other extremely short-duration trading.
• Trades closed within 2 minutes — profits are deducted (micro-scalping rule).
• Unrealistic execution that relies on simulated market conditions (slippage, liquidity, partial fills) not replicable in live.
• Holding positions overnight or over the weekend.
• Trading affected instruments inside the 2-minute high-impact news buffer on funded accounts.

Close before the platform session ends.
