FunderPro EA and Trading Bot Rules on MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader

Direct Technical Answer

FunderPro EA and trading bot rules permit personal Expert Advisors and trade risk guards on MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader. Every funded position still needs a stop. The book also has to stay inside 2,000 server requests a day, so a trail that rewrites a stop can fail a review before the 5% line is close.

FunderPro will allow the advisor and still fail the account at request number 2,001, even when every funded ticket already has a stop and the day is only $800 red on $100,000. Permission to automate is not permission to talk to the server without a budget. The desk has been in Valletta since 2023, and the same 2,000-request ceiling sits on MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader.

A funded ticket without a stop is already finished

Personal advisors and risk guards are permitted. The funded rule that sits next to that permission is a mandatory stop on open positions. A naked buy that is $200 in profit is not a clever discretionary hold. It is a missing stop. On a $100,000 Classic account the day is $5,000 and the static maximum is $10,000. A gold spike can cover that distance while you are still drawing the level by hand.

One standard lot of XAUUSD is $10 per 0.10 move. A 50-pip stop at 1.00 lot is $500, the 0.50% unit. Attaching that stop after the trade is the job. Attaching it 40 pips later, because price already ran, is a different risk than the one you wrote down. Bot controls should refuse to leave a funded FunderPro ticket unprotected, and they should refuse a stop so far away that the cash risk is no longer $500.

2,000 requests is the quiet limit next to the 5% limit

The ceiling is 2,000 server requests a day across MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader. A modification every second through a two-hour New York open is 7,200 attempts, more than three times the cap, and the cash P/L can still be a small scratch. Classic daily loss of $5,000 will not be the line item on that failure. The request count will.

Step the stop. Do not drag it on every tick. Four partial exits and one breakeven move are a handful of requests. A grid that adds and deletes pending orders through the London open is not. Martingale-style stacking is a bad fit for a 5% day even before anyone counts packets. Create a Venasri login and treat the request budget as a rule you can see, not as a surprise in a weekend email.

The same advisor is a different risk on One Phase

Classic daily loss is 5%. One Phase daily loss is 4%, and the maximum is a 6% end-of-day trail rather than a static 10%. An advisor tuned to withstand a $5,000 day on $100,000 is $1,000 too loose on One Phase, where the day is $4,000. A trail that expects the lifetime floor to stay at $90,000 will be wrong after One Phase closes a green day and lifts the 6% mark.

Fast Track adds a 45% consistency score, and daily payout requests use that score as well. An advisor that hunts one large gold expansion can clear 45% of the cycle in a single session and stall the payout while every stop was technically present. The bot did not break the stop rule. It broke the shape of the profit. Size it so no session is allowed to own the week.

Flatten before the firm does, and before the news window

Equity Guard on Classic $100,000 should flatten near $4,250, leaving $750 before the official $5,000. On One Phase flatten near $3,250 against the $4,000 day. The guard is a risk manager, which the firm permits, and it should send one close rather than a stream of micro-edits that burn the 2,000-request day. Funded news is a 2-minute window around high-impact releases. A stop that slips through CPI still counts against the daily line.

The server day rolls at 00:00, UTC+2 or UTC+3, and the reference includes floating equity. If the advisor is holding a runner into that snapshot, the next day starts from a richer base. Partial before the clock unless the contract is the Swing variant and the lot was sized for the hold. Swing is where weekend positions are allowed. Other variants should be flat.

Frequently Asked Questions: FunderPro EA and Trading Bot Rules on MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader

Are Expert Advisors allowed at FunderPro?

Personal Expert Advisors and trade risk guards are permitted on MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader. Funded positions must carry a stop. The account also has to stay inside 2,000 server requests a day. A legal advisor can still fail the account by modifying orders too often.

What happens if a FunderPro funded trade has no stop-loss?

The funded rule requires a stop on open positions. A naked ticket is a breach even while it is in profit. On $100,000, a 1.00 lot gold position moves $10 per 0.10. Put the stop on with the entry so a spike cannot travel the $5,000 Classic day while you are still typing.

Does the FunderPro request cap change on TradeLocker or cTrader?

The published ceiling is 2,000 server requests a day across MT5, TradeLocker, and cTrader. A trail that rewrites a stop every tick during the New York open can exhaust that cap with almost no closed loss. Batch the modifications instead of streaming them.

Can Equity Guard run on a FunderPro account?

Yes. Risk guards are permitted. On Classic $100,000, flatten near $4,250 so the official day of $5,000 is not your exit. On One Phase, flatten near $3,250 against the $4,000 day. Keep the flatten to a small number of requests so the guard itself does not crowd the 2,000-request ceiling.
