Use of Expert Advisors (EAs) at FXRK
This article explains the conditions for using Expert Advisors (EAs), bots, and automated trading systems within FXRK.
FXRK allows the use of Expert Advisors (EAs), bots, and automated trading systems, provided they comply with the program rules and do not involve abusive or manipulative practices.
The purpose of these rules is to maintain a fair, stable, and professional trading environment, where trader evaluations are based on real skills, proper risk management, and replicable strategies.
For this reason, it is strictly prohibited to use algorithms designed to exploit technical failures, generate artificial activity, or distort the purpose of the funding program.
Any account engaging in this type of behavior may be suspended or terminated.
Strategies and behaviors not allowed when using EAs
Tick Scalping
What it is
A strategy that executes a large number of trades within seconds to capture very small price movements, typically between 1 and 3 pips.
Why it is prohibited
It does not represent realistic market trading or a sustainable strategy. It can also generate excessive server load and relies on temporary technical advantages rather than trading skills.
Example
An EA that opens and closes trades in less than one second with large volumes to exploit micro price changes before prices update.
Autotrading with abusive strategies
What it is
The use of algorithms that trade based on system weaknesses or artificial market behavior, such as latency, manipulated ticks, or delayed data.
Why it is prohibited
It does not reflect real analysis or trader decision-making. This type of trading exploits the platform rather than operating under normal market conditions.
Example
An EA connected to an external price feed detects outdated prices in FXRK and places orders before the server updates the quotes.
Martingale strategies
What it is
A method that increases the position size after each loss, hoping that a winning trade will recover all previous losses.
Why it is prohibited
It creates uncontrolled exposure and a very high risk of total account loss. It does not represent responsible risk management.
Example
An EA that doubles the lot size after every losing trade until a trade wins or the account runs out of capital.
Grid strategies
What it is
A technique that opens multiple buy and sell orders at fixed price intervals without considering market direction or performing analysis.
Why it is prohibited
It can generate extreme exposure when the market moves strongly in one direction and does not reflect structured risk management.
Example
An EA that opens orders every 10 pips without a stop loss, hoping random price movement will produce profits.
Hyperactive trading
What it is
Opening or modifying an excessive number of trades within a short period of time without clear market justification.
Why it is prohibited
It may overload servers, affect platform performance, and generate execution patterns that do not reflect normal human trading activity.
Example
An EA that executes hundreds or thousands of trades per day without a defined technical pattern and constantly modifies open orders.
Latency trading
What it is
A technique that exploits delays in price updates between different platforms or data sources.
Why it is prohibited
It breaks the fairness of the trading environment and relies on technical desynchronization rather than market analysis.
Example
An EA detects a price movement on another platform and executes a trade on FXRK before the price updates.
Unauthorized copy trading
What it is
Automatically replicating trades from another trader without independent analysis or authorization.
Why it is prohibited
The FXRK model evaluates the individual performance of each trader. Copying strategies prevents the platform from measuring the user’s real trading ability.
Example
An EA that replicates all trades from another user in real time without performing its own adjustments or analysis.
Price arbitrage
What it is
Exploiting price differences between platforms by detecting delays or discrepancies in quote updates.
Why it is prohibited
It generates artificial profits without real market risk and compromises the integrity of the evaluation system.
Example
An EA detects that the price has not yet updated in FXRK and opens a trade before the quote synchronizes.
Random trading or gambling behavior
What it is
Opening trades without a defined strategy, based on impulses, emotions, or attempts to recover losses.
Why it is prohibited
FXRK promotes a professional environment based on analysis, risk management, and consistency. This behavior often leads to rapid losses and prevents proper evaluation of real trading skills.
Example
An EA opens a large position after several losses without analysis or stop loss in an attempt to recover lost capital.
Account sharing
What it is
Allowing another person to trade the account or using the same EA in a coordinated way across multiple users.
Why it is prohibited
Accounts are personal, and evaluation must reflect the individual skill of each trader. Account sharing compromises security and evaluation integrity.
Example
The same EA is used simultaneously on multiple accounts producing identical trades.
Hedging between accounts or groups
What it is
Opening opposite positions across different accounts to artificially reduce risk and guarantee profit in one of them.
Why it is prohibited
This behavior eliminates real market exposure and manipulates the evaluation process.
Example
An EA opens a buy trade in one account and a sell trade in another to ensure at least one produces profit.
Hedging within the same account
What it is
Opening opposite positions on the same instrument within the same account to cover or neutralize an existing trade.
Why it is prohibited
This type of trading distorts risk evaluation and does not reflect position management based on market analysis.
Example
An EA opens a buy position on EUR/USD and later opens a sell position on the same pair within the same account to neutralize the original trade result.
Exploiting technical errors
What it is
Attempting to benefit from platform errors, such as frozen prices, delayed execution, or quote errors.
Why it is prohibited
This behavior generates artificial results, damages trust in the system, and does not represent real trading skill.
Example
An EA places orders while the price of an asset remains frozen due to a server error, anticipating profit once the price updates.
Final recommendation
Before using an Expert Advisor, ensure that its behavior respects the program rules and does not involve prohibited strategies.
Trading with automated systems requires proper risk management and a clear strategy. Using tools that produce consistent and replicable trading activity is essential for progressing successfully toward a funded account.
