Copy Trading Rules

You are allowed to engage in copy trading from another Top One Trader account, a prop firm, or a retail broker, provided that you are the owner of these accounts on 1-step-flash accounts and or 2-step-pro accounts. (Copy trading is not allowed in any form on Instant Funding acounts)

For example, if you have a funded account, you may copy trades from that account to another one of your challenge or funded accounts. The same applies if you have two challenge accounts.

However, copy trading between accounts not owned by you is strictly prohibited.


Prohibited Copy Trading Activities

  • Automatic Flagging System: Top One Trader uses an automated system to detect identical or near-identical trades across different accounts. If a flag is triggered, your account will be reviewed. Depending on the severity of the violation, your account may be reset or closed.

  • Expert Advisors (EAs): While multiple traders can use the same EA, each trader must customize their trading parameters to fit their own trading style and account. Identical or near-identical trades from the same EA are considered a violation. Commercially available EAs with automated trading algorithms are strictly prohibited.

  • Account Management & Copy Trading Services: The use of third-party account management, "pass your challenge" services, or following the same trade signals as other users on our platform is forbidden. Traders must trade independently with their own unique strategies.


Purpose of These Rules

These rules are in place to ensure a level playing field for all traders and promote a healthy, safe, and fair trading environment.
