Prohibited practices & account rules
Micro scalping
Flagged if more than 50% of profits come from trades held 5 seconds or less. Genuine scalping tied to real market activity is fine — the rule targets bad-faith, ultra-short holds.
Hedging
All forms of hedging are prohibited, including opposing positions across multiple accounts you control, or correlated-asset trades split across accounts (e.g. long ES in one account, short NQ in another).
High-frequency trading (HFT)
Automated strategies submitting a high volume of trades within seconds or milliseconds are strictly banned. Detection is automated; repeat offenses can mean profit removal and account closure.
Inactivity rule
Accounts with no trade producing at least $1 of net profit or loss within 30 calendar days are considered abandoned and permanently deleted.
News trading
Allowed on all evaluations and funded accounts except LucidDaily. LucidDaily traders must be flat from 1 minute before to 1 minute after red-folder news events.
