Account Sharing

Account sharing refers to sharing or reselling your account with other individuals or entities without authorization. Sharing devices with other traders is prohibited, as it can cause trade data inconsistencies and make risk management impossible.

Example

  • If two traders use the same account simultaneously, AIFO cannot verify the trader’s actual activity, and the account will be immediately closed.

After Violation: The account will be permanently closed.

IP Monitoring

Frequent or unusual IP changes may indicate potential violations, such as frequent transactions by switching countries or regions via VPN, or multiple people logging into the same account from different locations.

Example

  • If a trader frequently switches IPs between the US, UK, and Japan within a single day, AIFO may consider this as potential risk manipulation.

After Violation

First violation: Account frozen, trading disabled until trader provides a reasonable explanation.

Second violation: Account closure if the explanation is unreasonable or inconsistent.

Device Restriction

All trading must be performed on the trader’s personal device. Shared or public devices are prohibited due to security and accountability concerns.

Example

  • If a trader operates an account on other devices without a reasonable explanation, the account will be directly closed once discovered.

After Violation: The account will be permanently closed.

Gap Trading

Trading around significant global news, special macroeconomic events, or company reports may cause gap movements. Trading these instruments within 2 hours before market closes or event announcements is prohibited.

After Violation:

First violation: Confiscate profits exceeding allowed limit from such trades.

Second violation: Account closure.

Major News Event Trading

Trading restricted instruments 5 minutes before and after major news events is prohibited. Positions opened ≥6 hours prior and triggered stop-loss during this period are allowed.

After Violation

First violation: Confiscate excess profits.

Second violation: Account closure.
