Why is it forbidden to Achieve the Profit Target in one trade ?
Updated over 5 months ago

Achieving the Profit Target in one trade (or in a few similar trades on the same instrument within one day) could actually sum up, or complement, the previous three ( Overleveraging without a system, One-sided bets and Account Rolling ).

Every Fintokei evaluation program has a profit target that traders need to meet to complete it. To prevent gamblers and lucky shooters from finishing the challenge with a single fortunate, over-leveraged or one-sided betting set of trades, we have set a minimum trading days metric. This metric requires a minimum number of days to complete the challenge, which for us is three. This is to avoid someone completing the challenge by placing one high-volume, high-leverage lucky trade within 30 minutes of purchasing the evaluation program.

However, some traders have found a way to circumvent this rule. After achieving the profit target with a single set of trades, they open additional, much smaller trades in the following days (typically very small ones, like 0.01 lots, and for a very short time) just to meet the minimum 3-day trading requirement (so called “flipping trades”).

Below you may find a few clear examples that contain the above mentioned practices and were performed by some of our customers. Our rules have allowed it so far, and we honestly treated them, including processing the payouts. However, we would not want to endorse such trading styles anymore.
