FPFX prohibits strategies that exploit the simulation rather than demonstrate real skill. These include:

  • High-Frequency Trading (HFT) (allowed only on FPFX Pro)
  • Reverse Hedging and Group Hedging
  • Account Management (trading someone else's account, or having yours traded)
  • Latency Arbitrage and Statistical Arbitrage violations
  • Order Book Spamming
  • Herd Trading and Collusion between users
  • Poor Money Management / Improper Risk Management
  • Exploiting bugs or glitches
  • High-Leverage News Trading (HLNT)

Violations can lead to profit deductions, account closure or other penalties under FPFX's terms.
