Help CenterEAs are allowed but only after pre-approval. You must obtain approval before running any EA on a OneFunded account.
Please note:
- EAs that execute trades automatically on behalf of the client are not allowed.
- EAs that work as trading assistants — for example, helping calculate lot size, risk management, position sizing, or similar support functions — are allowed but only after pre-approval.
How do I get pre-approval for an EA?

We’ll review for compatibility with our trading environment and fair-use rules.
To ensure your trading remains compliant with OneFunded’s rules, traders should be aware of the following:
- Trade manually unless an EA or tool has been specifically approved. Automated entry systems, trading bots, signal executors and similar software are not permitted.
- Avoid excessive order clustering. Repeatedly opening several positions within the same second or in rapid automated-style sequences may be flagged for review.
- Use appropriate Stop Loss protection. Frequently trading without a Stop Loss, especially across a large number of trades, may be considered poor or systematic risk management when combined with other unusual activity.
- Avoid excessive ultra-short-term trading. Repeatedly opening and closing positions within only a few seconds for very small profits may be considered tick scalping or prohibited systematic trading.
- Be mindful of unusually long trading coverage. Trading continuously across exceptionally long periods each day (14 hours+) may trigger additional review, particularly where the execution pattern is highly repetitive.
- Use trading tools only for permitted assistance. Tools for lot-size calculation, Stop Loss/Take Profit management, break-even or partial closures may be permitted, but they must not automatically decide when to enter trades unless specifically approved by OneFunded.
Important: OneFunded does not normally assess these characteristics in isolation. Account reviews consider the overall combination, frequency and repetition of trading behaviour. A single short trade, same-second order or trade without a Stop Loss does not automatically constitute a breach; however, a consistent pattern of these behaviours may result in the account being reviewed or breached under OneFunded’s trading rules.
