SCALPING POLICY
Scalping Policy
Scalping is a form of trading which we consider to be an unacceptable practice and a type of market abuse. Scalping might be wrongfully used to return profits by taking advantage of internet latencies, delayed prices, off market/bad prices or, through high volumes of transactions, targeting tick fluctuations (rather than price movements) where trades are opened and closed very quickly.
If, in our sole discretion, we consider you to have partaken in this form of scalping, it will be considered as a breach of our Terms and Conditions and as such we reserve the right to:
- Make immediate changes to your account, including but not limited to, the liquidity provided by us and the spread quoted.
- Immediately terminate your account and your access to our servers.
- Void any trade (i.e., treat the trade as if the trade had never taken place) which was part of any Scalping activity.
- Close any trade, which was part of any Scalping activity, on the basis of our current market price.
We can exercise the above rights even if you have entered into (or refrained from entering into) such arrangements with third parties relating to the relevant trade and even if you may suffer a trading loss as a result.
Please be advised that all trading activity is monitored closely, and in the event it is identified that you are Scalping we reserve the right to close your account with immediate effect.
