Firm Rules
How Apex Trader Funding treats the trading practices that most often trip traders up. Always confirm the specifics in the firm's own rulebook before you trade.
Hedging
Hedging means holding opposing positions on the same or correlated instruments — often across multiple accounts — to lock in a near risk-free outcome. Firms treat it as system manipulation rather than genuine trading.
- Hedging between accounts
- Prohibited – evaluations must use independent directional trading
News trading
Trading through high-impact news releases. Some firms allow it freely, some restrict it during the evaluation, and some prohibit holding through major scheduled news on funded accounts.
- News trading allowed
- Not prohibited (no MAE rule or 5:1 RR rule)
