Can I use High Frequency Trading (HFT) strategies in Actifunded?

High Frequency Trading (HFT), characterized by the massive execution of orders.

Updated over 4 months ago

High Frequency Trading (HFT), characterized by the massive execution of orders within milliseconds or seconds using advanced algorithms, is strictly prohibited in Actifunded.

Our funding model is built on trading activity that reflects legitimate, consistent decision-making — not on the exploitation of micro-technical discrepancies or latency advantages.


Why HFT is Prohibited

HFT generates:

  • Market Manipulation: it distorts real supply and demand by creating artificial volume.

  • Non-genuine volatility: it increases sudden price movements that can disrupt normal execution for other traders.

  • High technical risk: it overloads servers, impacting platform stability and reliability.


Detection and Penalties

  • Any execution pattern showing multiple orders and closures within sub-second intervals will be considered HFT.

  • Accounts detected using HFT will be immediately suspended, with all profits voided and the funding agreement terminated.
