Fintokei: Latency arbitrage, tick scalping, gambling

ForbiddenVoids accountHidden ruleVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

Prohibited: latency arbitrage, tick scalping, opposite/hedge trading across multiple accounts or traders, gambling-style all-in trades, one-sided betting and overleveraging without a strategy, multi-account/multi-IP abuse and unauthorized third-party payments. Notably, martingale and aggressive averaging were REMOVED from the ban list on 28 July 2025 (discouraged but not penalized).

The gotcha

Hedging across accounts is banned, but martingale within one account is now allowed — the opposite of most firms.
