Can traders run expert advisors or bots in the terminal?
Quick answer
No. The PropExecutor terminal does not run expert advisors, scripts or bots, and order placement through the public API is planned rather than available. Traders trade manually in the browser or Android app. Firms that require automated trading should take this into account.
Detailed answer
This is a deliberate limitation of the current terminal, and it has consequences both ways.
What it means for traders
- Strategies that depend on an EA cannot run on PropExecutor.
- Traders who analyse elsewhere and execute manually are unaffected.
What it means for firms
- Fewer identical bot accounts, which simplifies copy-trading detection.
- No EA-based latency or tick-scalping strategies.
- A simpler prohibited-strategies policy.
Rules that address high-frequency patterns
Even with manual trading, firms can use:
- Minimum hold time: flags or breaches trades closed too quickly.
- Maximum orders per day: caps very high activity.
API trading
The API documentation lists endpoints for opening and closing positions as planned. Until they are available, all trading on PropExecutor accounts happens in the terminal.
For your traders' FAQ
State clearly that EAs are not supported, so traders who rely on them know before they buy.
