Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of The Great Trader's website, platform, and evaluation services. By creating an account or using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use our services.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using our services, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age, have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement, and are not located in a restricted country. You accept these Terms on behalf of yourself only.

2. Description of Services

The Great Trader provides a simulated trading evaluation program. Participants trade in a simulated environment with virtual capital. Successful participants who meet defined objectives may be offered access to a funded account where they trade with capital provided by The Great Trader in exchange for a profit share arrangement.

Our services are for evaluation and educational purposes only. No real money is traded during the evaluation phase.

3. Accounts

• You may only create one account per person. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent rules is prohibited and will result in immediate termination.
• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials.
• You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration.
• You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account.

4. Simulated Trading Environment

• All evaluation accounts operate in a simulated environment. No real capital is at risk during evaluations.
• Evaluation rules (profit targets, drawdown limits, trading days) are defined per plan and displayed on the pricing page.
• Passing an evaluation does not guarantee a funded account offer. We reserve the right to review results before activation.
• Funded account performance payouts are discretionary and subject to compliance with funded account rules and applicable laws.

5. Prohibited Activities

You agree not to:

• Use automated trading systems, bots, or algorithms not disclosed at account creation without written approval.
• Engage in account copying, signal mirroring, or coordinated trading across multiple accounts.
• Attempt to exploit latency, data feed errors, or platform bugs to gain an unfair advantage.
• Use any trading strategy solely designed to pass evaluations without reflecting genuine trading intent (e.g., martingale, grid trading, guaranteed arbitrage).
• Share, transfer, or sell access to your account or evaluation results.
• Engage in any form of market manipulation or fraudulent trading behavior.

Violation of these rules will result in immediate account termination and forfeiture of any fees paid.

6. Payments and Refunds

• Evaluation fees are non-refundable once your trading account has been activated and you have placed at least one trade.
• Refund requests before account activation may be considered on a case-by-case basis within 7 days of purchase.
• All prices are in USD. Additional currency conversion fees may apply depending on your payment method.

7. Intellectual Property

All content on this platform — including text, graphics, logos, software, and evaluation methodologies — is the property of The Great Trader and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written consent.

8. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if we determine you have violated these Terms, engaged in fraudulent activity, or if required by law. Upon termination, your right to access the platform ceases immediately.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

Our services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses. Past simulated performance does not guarantee future results in live trading.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Great Trader shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Travis County, Texas.

12. Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. We will provide notice of material changes via email or platform notification.
