Trading Restrictions

Are there any restrictions on my trading?

As much as we try not to restrict our trader’s style at Clarity Traders, there are certain strategies we have deemed as “cheating” as they provide an unfair advantage by manipulating the demo accounts. Any trader that is caught using any of the strategies we deemed prohibited, not limited to those stated on this page, will have their challenge or funded accounts breached as they would have violated our terms of use policy.

Below are some of the prohibited strategies and definitions:

Grid Trading

Grid trading is a strategy where a trader utilizes hedging positions from one account to another account, to guarantee profits on at least one account.

Latency Arbitrage

Latency arbitrage is a high-frequency trading strategy used in financial markets to exploit price discrepancies caused by differences in the speed of order execution across various trading platforms or exchanges.

Reverse Arbitrage

Reverse arbitrage, also known as reverse merger arbitrage or negative spread arbitrage, is a trading strategy that involves taking advantage of discrepancies in the prices of related financial instruments. Unlike traditional arbitrage, where traders exploit price differences between identical or similar assets, reverse arbitrage involves betting against a perceived mispricing in the market.

Tick Scalping

Tick scalping is a high-speed trading strategy used in financial markets where traders aim to profit from small price movements known as “ticks.” In tick scalping, traders execute a large number of trades over short timeframes, often holding positions for only a few seconds or minutes.

High-frequency Trading

High-frequency trading (HFT) is a trading strategy that involves executing a large number of trades in extremely short timeframes, typically measured in seconds.

Martingale

Martingale trading is a strategy where traders increase their position size after each trade, aiming to recoup previous losses or increase the multitude of winnings with a subsequent trade.

Hedging Between Accounts

Hedging between accounts refers to a risk management strategy where a trader offsets potential losses in one account by taking opposite positions in another customer account.

Guaranteed Limit Orders

Guaranteed limit orders are a type of trading order that provides traders with certainty regarding the execution price of their trades.

Data Feed Manipulation

Data feed manipulation refers to the intentional alteration or distortion of financial market data transmitted to traders and investors through data feeds.

Trading on Delayed Charts

Trading on delayed charts refers to making trading decisions based on price data that is not up-to-date or real-time. Instead of accessing live market data, traders rely on charts and price information that are delayed by a certain amount of time, which could range from a few seconds to several minutes or more.
