Funded Removed, False EA Breach
After making a payout request, I received that it was denied due to a Breach - Automated Trading (EA Usage). However, I am a manual trader who manually enters trades and manually adjusts stop loss and take profit. In fact, I don’t actually know how to even set up automated trading. I follow TradingPool (Salty) who advocates for FundedX and trade a similar continuation model to him manually and actually took the same trade as him to be able to request the payout. Have contacted FundedX through their chat and was directed to send an email to risk but they seem to be ignoring it as I also sent an email to support which has been ignored as well. If anything changes I will of course adjust this review, but as of now, it seems that I've been scammed. It would have been 8k on a 200k funded, so at this stage, it feels like I've lost 8k and 3 months of my time (time to pass two-stage funded) as I am very conservative in my risk management, risking 0.5% per trade, one trade a day and target a fixed 6:1 RR profit target. I guess we'll see if it is a scam or just a misunderstanding that they rectify... UPDATE FOLLOWING FUNDEDX COMMENT: Thank you for your response. I want to clarify publicly that I have never used an EA, trade copier, API connection, or any automated tool. All of my trades were placed manually using the cTrader mobile app and web interface. At this stage, I have only requested the evidence that the decision was based on — such as timestamps, execution-source logs, or any specific trade patterns your system identified. This request is reasonable and consistent with your own Terms and Conditions. I understand that certain detection parameters are proprietary, and I am not asking for those. I am simply requesting the specific activity or log entries that led to the EA classification so that I can understand the basis of the breach. I am currently awaiting further clarification via the escalation process. If the review confirms that a false flag occurred, I am fully prepared to update this review accordingly. My intention is not to accuse, but to resolve the matter transparently and fairly. Thank you.
