Prohibited: high-frequency trading (durations of 'a few seconds or less'), tick scalping (in/out within seconds), latency arbitrage, reverse arbitrage, hedge arbitrage (same pair bought/sold across accounts), general price-glitch arbitrage and rollover-scalping EAs.
The gotcha
No exact millisecond figure is published โ 'a few seconds or less' is the only threshold, so very fast scalpers can be flagged. Exploiting a price-feed error voids the account with no refund.
