Breakout: Latency exploit, strategy switching, account sharing

ForbiddenVoids accountHidden ruleVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

Prohibited: exploiting pricing/latency errors, insider info, front-running, demo arbitrage (vs another account), strategy switching (one approach in eval, another when funded), copy trading, account sharing — including same household / device / IP — and cross-account hedging. Hedging within a single account is permitted (Hedge Mode on by default).

The gotcha

Same-household / same-IP / same-device trading is banned — risky for couples, roommates or anyone on a shared network — and changing your style from eval to funded is treated as a violation.
