Short-Term Trading Restriction

According to our "Short-Term Trading Restriction" rule, opening and then closing trades within a period of less than thirty (30) seconds is not allowed. This requirement is established to prevent the misuse of trading accounts with low spreads through high-speed strategies that can disrupt fair market pricing. Note that profits from trades opened and closed within this time frame will not be counted towards any profit targets or account balance calculations. However, losses from such trades will be fully recognized and applied to the trading account. Additionally, if FORFX calculates the profit of the under 30 seconds trades and after deducting the profit generated from these trades, the total PNL of the account leads to reaching the daily loss limit or max loss limit, the account will be breached. Adhering to this rule ensures the overall health of market operations and maintains the expected standards in our trading environment.
