TL;DR: FundedNext allows scalping, but micro-scalping is monitored. Micro-scalping is identified when 40% or more of total profit comes from trades closed within 10 seconds. Traders may close losing trades at any time without restriction. If detected, Challenge Accounts receive a warning, while FundedNext Accounts receive a warning and profits generated from micro-scalping are deducted, but the account is not breached.
Micro-scalping is defined as the practice of opening and closing trades within seconds to capture very small, quick price changes. While scalping itself is a valid trading approach, at FundedNext, micro-scalping is identified when 40% or more of the total profit is generated from trades that are closed within 10 seconds. However, traders are free to close trades at a loss at any time, without fear of triggering the micro-scalping rule. We want to ensure traders have full control over their risk and the freedom to exit losing trades immediately if they choose.
What is FundedNext’s policy on micro-scalping?
To maintain fairness and stability across our platform, FundedNext has a clear and balanced policy, focusing on giving traders the opportunity to adjust while ensuring market integrity. This will not breach your account, but the following measures will be applied:
Challenge Accounts: If micro-scalping is detected, you will receive a formal warning.
FundedNext Accounts: If micro-scalping is detected, you will receive a warning, and any profits generated from this activity will be deducted from your account.
