Trade Lab is a great way to test out your investment strategies, but unfortunately, some people abuse the system. These trades add no value to your followers and can even lead to suspicion and mistrust.
Here are some examples of what we consider abuse:
1. Unusual volumes
Trades with abnormally high quantities that don't reflect real-world scenarios.
We will now allow trades with following max quantity
Note : You can place multiple orders if you want to exceed these limits.
We will be improving our systems further in the coming months to make this part of the trade submission.
2. Trades for short durations
FrontPage's Trade Lab system works on approximate time intervals. It tries to simulate the real brokerage like Zerodha as similar investment in infrastructure as brokerages is beyond possibility.
Some people though exploit the system by entering and exiting the trades in a short duration.
Short duration trades are also difficult for the followers or other members to follow.
Several people indulge in buying deep out of money options and add large volume orders. On these kind of options such volumes are not available in real life trading.
When a stock hits a circuit the trading stops in that script. This abuse of trade performance is experimental at this stage, and we will review the conditions and update here if there are any changes to this.
