Are EA (Expert Advisors), Bots, or Copy Trading Allowed?

At Alpha Trader Firm, the use of automated systems or third-party trade copying is strictly prohibited during both the Challenge and Funded stages.

No EA / Automated Trading

  • Expert Advisors (EAs), trading bots, scripts, or any other form of automated execution are not allowed at any stage.

  • All trades must be placed manually by the trader who owns the account.

No Copy Trading

  • Accounts may not be connected to any copy trading service, trade mirroring tool, or signal provider.

  • Each account must reflect the trader’s own independent strategy and decisions.

Why These Rules Exist

We enforce these restrictions to ensure:

  • Fairness – All traders participate on equal terms.

  • Integrity – Performance must reflect the trader’s personal skill and decision-making.

  • Compliance – Protecting the evaluation and payout process from misuse or manipulation.

Violation of these rules will result in immediate breach of account terms, leading to disqualification from the program and denial of payouts.
