Margin Use: Our traders may be provided with a leverage varying from 1:30 up to 1:100 depending on their trading style and margin use. However, using all the available margin on a single trading idea is considered high risk and akin to gambling. This approach may result in account freezing or ban.This involves opening a single full-margin trade or multiple smaller positions within the same price range, using all available margin. We value longevity and sustainability over gambling or an all-in approach.

Performance fee Scaling: The trader's performance fee on their trading account will increase by 5% every time their account is successfully scaled. This process will begin with Instant Funded Accounts of $50,000 and will continue up to our top tier account of $1.6 million.Once the trader reaches the maximum profit split of 75%, they can increase it up to 90% by applying for a Performance Fee scaling review every time their closed balance profit reaches 10%

High-Frequency Trading and Platform Exploitation
Prohibited Trading Strategie:In order to maintain the integrity and reliability of our trading platform, we strictly prohibit any form of High-Frequency Trading (HFT) and platform exploitation strategies, including but not limited to pip hunting. These practices can create significant challenges in trade replication and can adversely affect both the trader and the firm.

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)Clients are not permitted to engage in strategies that involve an excessively high volume of trades in extremely short intervals. Our systems are not designed to support the ultra-fast execution speeds required for high-frequency strategies, and such activities may lead to technical difficulties including latency issues or inaccurate trade replication.

Pip Hunting:We define pip hunting as strategies that attempt to profit from small price gaps and quick, minimal movements that may exploit latency discrepancies between different platforms or feeds. Such strategies compromise the fairness and stability of the trading environment and are strictly forbidden.

Platform Exploitation:Any strategies that aim to exploit technical features or perceived weaknesses of the trading platform are strictly prohibited. This includes actions designed to manipulate trading systems or execution mechanisms to the trader's undue advantage.Prohibition of Hard Trailing Stop Strategies and High-Frequency Limit/Stop Orders: Strategies involving hard trailing stops and frequent use of limit or stop orders are prohibited. These tactics are typically employed to deceive brokers and liquidity providers, creating unfair advantages and potential market disruptions.

Discretionary Definition of High-Frequency Trading:The classification of certain trading activities as high-frequency trading may vary based on the discretion of the company’s dealers. This flexibility ensures our policies remain adaptive to evolving market conditions and trading behaviors.

Detection of Concealed Trading Activities:Thanks to our advanced algorithms, we are capable of detecting attempts to conceal any prohibited trading activities. This technology ensures that all trading actions are transparent and in compliance with our trading standards.

Consequences of Rule ViolationViolation of these rules may result in immediate disqualification from our funding program, account suspension, or termination, depending on the severity of the infraction. We reserve the right to take any necessary actions to protect the interests of all our clients and the operational capabilities of our platform.By participating in our Instant Funded Model Account, clients agree to adhere to these trading practices and acknowledge the potential repercussions of non-compliance.

At Oxi Prop, we aim to provide a diverse and risk-managed trading environment. Accordingly, we have established guidelines for traders using copytrading strategies in their instant funded accounts.

Use of Copytrading (External and Internal): Traders are permitted to use both external copytrading platforms and our internal proprietary copytrading systems in their instant funded accounts. However, it's important to understand the implications of relying on these strategies.

Impact on Refundable Fee Condition: Impact on Refundable Fee Condition: If a trader engages in any form of copytrading, whether external or internal, on their instant funded account, and this includes whether they conduct manual trades alongside or not, the 'Refundable Fee' condition applicable at the third account scaling's payout will be removed. This policy adjustment is crucial as profits primarily generated through copytrading, irrespective of the source, represent a centralized risk strategy.

Removing the 'Refundable Fee' benefit under these circumstances is aligned with our firm's commitment to diversified risk management. Profits predominantly derived from copytrading change the risk dynamics of our operations.

We strongly encourage our traders to adopt a varied approach in their trading activities. A diversified trading strategy not only supports our risk management framework but also bolsters the trader's ability to navigate different market scenarios effectively.

We value your understanding of these terms and your dedication to maintaining a responsible and varied approach in your trading within your instant funded account.
