Reverse trading is a prohibited trading strategy in financial markets. Traders typically use this strategy for short-term trades in the opposite direction on the same trading pair. It is not allowed across multiple accounts or even within the same account. Example: At 10:00 AM, you open a buy position on XAU/USD. At 10:03 AM, you close the buy position with a profit/loss. At 10:03:50 AM, you open a sell position on XAU/USD — which is within 1 minute of closing the buy trade. This is considered reverse trading, as the new position was opened within 1 minute of the previous opposite trade being closed. As a result, the profit from the sell trade will be deducted, and you’ll receive a warning email. Note: This will be counted as a soft breach, and only the profit from the violating trade will be deducted.
