▶FundedElite Forbidden Strategies Rule: Instant Termination Traps — 46s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
Prohibited: HFT and high-frequency scalping (trades under 3 minutes — or under 30 seconds if the scalping add-on was purchased), tick scalping, one-sided over-concentration (>50% of daily loss on one instrument), cross-broker/cross-prop-firm hedging, latency arbitrage, server spamming and account rolling. Account sharing only from a single consistent IP. Martingale/grid are tolerated if non-exploitative.
Breaching this voids the account outright — the evaluation or funded account is terminated and any unrealised profit is forfeited. It's the most severe class of breach.
