What Types of EAs Are Allowed?

Trade management EAs – Automate stop-loss adjustments, trailing stops, and position sizing.
Strategy-based EAs – Implement technical and fundamental trading strategies.
Algorithmic trading systems – Designed to follow predefined risk management rules.

What Is Not Allowed?

High-Frequency Trading (HFT) EAs – EAs that place an excessive number of orders within milliseconds are not permitted, as they can create liquidity and execution issues with our brokers.

Best Practices for Using EAs

  • Test your EA extensively before using it in a live evaluation or funded account.

  • Ensure the EA follows Atlas Funded’s rules, including drawdown limits and risk management guidelines.

  • Monitor your EA closely to avoid unintended rule breaches or strategy failures.

While automated trading can be highly effective, traders remain responsible for their account’s performance. If you plan to use an EA, make sure it aligns with Atlas Funded’s risk parameters to maintain account eligibility.
