▶QT Funded Toxic Trading Rule: Win the Trade, Lose the Account — 49s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
Prohibited: arbitrage, latency trading, HFT (incl. tick scalping), reverse/group hedging (coordinated across accounts), order-book spamming, one-sided betting, front-running price feeds, and 'all-or-nothing' trading — which explicitly includes using more than 75% of your daily drawdown limit on a single trade, trading without a stop-loss, or trading major news unprotected. A broad 'toxic trading' clause lets the Risk Department void accounts at discretion.
The gotcha
Committing more than 75% of your daily drawdown to one trade is a violation even if you don't breach — and the 'toxic' catch-all is subjective.
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.
