EAs are allowed when the strategy is the trader's own and does not breach prohibited practices such as arbitrage, HFT, or exploitation of delays and errors.

Hedging within one account is allowed. Hedging positions across multiple accounts to manipulate results is prohibited.

Scalping is permitted, but not HFT. HFT includes trades held under 60 seconds or a high number of trades per hour.

Violations

• 1-2: Warning + profit deduction
• 3: Account breach

Manual scalping is allowed, but tick scalping, HFT, and strategies exploiting delays or pricing errors are prohibited.

Multiple positions are allowed as part of a legitimate strategy; excessive or coordinated exposure intended to bypass risk rules is prohibited.

One-Phase, Two-Phase, IF Micro

Martingale is fully permitted. You can add to losing positions and increase lot sizes without restriction.

Adding to losing positions is allowed, but repeatedly doubling lot sizes after losses is not permitted.

Maximum Lot Rule: Full list here

Maximum risk per trade idea , funded accounts

• General limit: 50% of the account's starting daily drawdown.
• Instant Funding Pro: 3% of the starting balance.
• Instant Funding Lite and One-Phase Crypto: 2%.
• IF Micro, IF Micro Crypto and IF1: 1%.
• Two-Phase Micro: 2% on accounts up to $50,000 and 1.5% on accounts of $100,000 or more.

Clarity accounts (IF Micro Clarity, One-Phase Clarity)

• No maximum-risk-per-position rule. Instead, a circuit breaker closes all positions if unrealised losses exceed 1.5% (IF Micro Clarity) or 2% (One-Phase Clarity) of the starting balance. The first breach reduces the profit split to 50%; the second closes the account.

IF Micro Lite

• Floating losses exceeding 1% of starting balance close all positions and trigger a strike. Account Drawdown and news-window violations share one strike pool: first strike reduces profit split to 50%; second closes the account.

Orion may treat excessive exposure, overleveraging, and other risk practices inconsistent with realistic trading as a breach.

Copying between your own Orion accounts is allowed. Copying signals, third-party accounts, or external services is prohibited.

IF Evolve

Warning system (funded accounts: One-Phase, Two-Phase, Instant Funding Pro, Instant Funding Lite)

• Up to 2 warnings with profit deductions for trades made inside the restriction window.
• 3rd violation = account breach.
• Profit deductions don't affect daily drawdown, but overall drawdown adjustments still apply.

IF Micro Lite

• Trading on affected instruments is prohibited within 4 minutes before and after major news. Violations count toward the shared strike pool described under maximum risk.

During evaluation there is no timing restriction, but using news as a strategy is prohibited. On funded accounts, Nova, Standard, and Select prohibit opening or closing trades 2 minutes before and after high-impact news. Swing has no timing restriction. Zero allows it, but trades executed within 5 minutes before or after receive a 50% profit split.
