Your OWN EA is allowed (full automation OK) provided you can prove ownership on request — source code, version history, or explaining the logic on a call. Third-party EAs are only allowed as a trade/risk manager, not for full automation. Competition accounts ban all EAs.
The gotcha
The trap is proof of ownership: a bought/downloaded EA you can't produce source for, or explain, is treated as banned third-party automation and the account can be voided.
