Risk Management & Responsibility

While we do not limit your strategy, holding positions during market closures carries inherent risks.

Because our simulated platform replicates real market conditions, please be aware that there are risks associated with market gaps when trading pairs that do not stay open during the weekend trading hours like Forex pairs, Indices and Commodities. .

As a Trader, it is your job to determine the risks and rewards of holding a position overnight, as we do not want to limit a user’s strategy. However, if a gap, slippage, or widened spread causes a violation of the account, it is the user’s responsibility.

​All users are responsible for knowing the trading hours on each instrument:
