Can I trader from multiple IP addresses

In order to ensure a secure trading environment for our traders, Top One Trader closely monitors for any suspicious ip address activity.

If Top One Trader identifies multiple ip addresses on the same account, multiple accounts from similar IP addresses, detects the same trades across multiple accounts with different owners, identifies any hedging across multiple accounts including other prop firms or brokers, it will be considered a violation.

We recommend traders use a singe device with a unique IP address during their trading activities on our platform. Many professional traders use a VPS (Virtual Private Server) with a static IP address to execute all of their trades. Not only does this not put you at any risk of being flagged for multiple IP addresses, you will typically get a faster execution speed on your trades.

We do understand you may place trades from home, on mobile when away from home, etc. which may cause your account to show multiple IP addresses.

Should you travel or move to a different country resulting in multiple IP addresses, this is okay but we may request a valid document for verification.

Any serious violations of this policy will result in breaching of your account and forfeiture of any profits.

Please know how serious we are when it comes to securing a safe trading environment for our trading community. We have implemented the most sophisticated fraud detection technologies available and closely monitor against our global ip blacklist of fraudulent users. Do not attempt to utilize any "pass your challenge" companies or account management companies. We quickly identify, blacklist, any potentially prosecute and fraudulent traders.

cTrader Users:
cTrader strictly prohibits U.S. traders. ANY trader logging into the cTrader platform from a U.S. ip address will have their accounts immediately hard breached. Should this happen, no additional cTrader account may be issued, nor will a refund be allowed.
