Are VPNs allowed?

Starting from 15 June 2025, the use of VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) to access or trade on our platforms will no longer be allowed.

What is NOT allowed:

  • Connection to Trading Platform while using VPN.

  • Masking your real IP address or geographic location via Proxy or VPN Service.

What IS allowed:

  • Using a VPS (Virtual Private Server) to run automated trading software such as Expert Advisors (EAs) on MetaTrader or cBots on cTrader.

Important distinction:

  • VPN (Not Allowed): A VPN hides your real IP address and location. This makes it impossible for us to verify your identity and monitor regional restrictions. As of 15 June 2025, connecting from a VPN is strictly prohibited.

  • VPS (Allowed): A VPS is a remote server used to host trading platforms for stability and automation. If you install your platform on a VPS, it is allowed provided you are not using a VPN within that VPS.

Please Note:

N.B. Accounts found using a VPN after June 15 may be suspended or disqualified. However, VPS usage for legitimate trading purposes remains authorized.
