Is copy trading allowed?
Updated over 3 months ago

Traders are allowed to use copy trading with their own accounts, whether those accounts are with Dominion Funding, other prop firms, or retail brokers, as long as they are solely owned by the individual. It is important that the Dominion Funding account is set as the primary (master) account, while the other linked (slave) accounts must also be owned by the same individual. This means you are free to copy trades between any Dominion Funding accounts under your name.

If a large portion of a trader’s transactions closely match those of one or more traders in terms of opening and closing prices, lot sizes, ratios, symbols, or other trading parameters, Dominion Funding’s system will automatically flag these accounts for review. If your account is flagged, it will undergo manual evaluation. Should it be found that copy trading between accounts owned by different people is taking place, Dominion Funding reserves the right to terminate any accounts involved.

You are allowed to use the same Expert Advisor (EA) as other traders, but your trading parameters must remain distinct, reflecting your personal strategy and account settings. If the EA generates nearly identical trades for multiple accounts with similar trading settings, this will also be viewed as prohibited copy trading.

In situations where multiple accounts exhibit suspiciously similar trading patterns, indicating potential coordinated group trading, all associated accounts will be immediately terminated.

Additionally, using services like “account management” or “pass your challenge” services, as well as copying trades between multiple accounts, is not permitted. All traders are expected to trade independently.

If a trader fails to follow these rules, they may face warnings or immediate account termination, depending on the severity of the violation.

The purpose of these rules is to ensure that all traders operate under fair and ethical conditions, avoiding any misuse of the copy trading system. These guidelines help maintain an equitable trading environment and ensure all traders have a fair opportunity to succeed while using copy trading in a legitimate way.
