Simulated trading must be legitimate and must not rely on practices that contradict the functioning of a real market. A trading strategy is allowed provided it does not:
- Interfere with legitimate trading.
- Exploit practices intended to cause us harm.
- Misuse the Evaluation Process or FTMO Rewards Account in any way.
- Breach the Forbidden Trading Practices.
We recommend that you get familiar with:
Please note again that all trading via the FTMO platform (Free Trial, FTMO Challenge, Verification, FTMO Instant Account or FTMO Rewards Account) is simulated only, with only simulated capital available. However, we may use the data obtained from FTMO Rewards Accounts to trade on our own separate live accounts. Hence, we emulate the conditions of a real market and require our clients to apply proper risk management. And when you trade on a real market (e.g. via a proprietary trading firm), you have to follow the rules.
