What the firm says

The5ers and automated trading

  • Any EA is allowed provided you own its source code; a third-party EA that opens the same trades for other traders is treated as copy trading.
  • The stop-loss must be visible on the platform: a hidden stop managed by the EA is forbidden.
  • The source-code rule covers every EA: have support confirm that a third-party trade-manager EA is allowed.
  • Copying your own trades is allowed between all your accounts; several Bootcamp accounts must run different strategies.
