Bots, copy trading and trading costs at Elite Trader Funding
- AI, bots, EAs, algorithms and any automated trading system are not allowed unless ETF authorizes them in writing.
- The only automated tools authorized today are the approved trade copiers.
- Checks happen when you request a reward: sessions are audited, and unauthorized automation can cost the reward.
- Only approved copiers: Tradesyncer, Tradecopia, Affordable Indicators (Duplicate Account Actions), Replikanto Flowbot compliance edition, or the platform's own copier (Tradovate group trading, MotiveWave, Quantower).
- Hedging yourself on the same or correlated instruments across accounts is prohibited, and so is trading for another user.

What getting funded really costs
Most traders don't pass on the first try. Set how long it takes you and see the full bill.
Commissions at this firm, per contract, open + close: mini $4.08, micro $1.12. A round trip is one contract bought and sold (3 contracts in and out = 3 round trips).
Passing first time, in one month, would cost $594.00. Failed attempts restart at the monthly renewal instead of a paid reset.
