12.6. MARKET ABUSE, UNFAIR TRADING AND ACCOUNT INTERVENTION
Hash Hedge strictly prohibits any form of market abuse, unfair or manipulative trading behaviour. Without limiting Sections 7 and 12 of these Terms, if we detect, or reasonably suspect, that a User is engaging in any of the activities listed below in connection with the Platform, a Challenge, or any other simulated environment provided by us, we may, at our sole discretion and without prior notice:
- intervene in, restrict, or close the User’s open positions;
- adjust, limit, or remove the User’s trading permissions;
- reset, suspend, or terminate a Challenge or the User’s Account; and/or
- take any other risk-management actions we consider appropriate to protect the integrity of the Platform, other users, the Firm, or any third party.
Such measures do not create any obligation on our part to monitor, supervise, or manage your trading activity on an ongoing basis and shall not be construed as portfolio management, investment advice, or any other regulated financial service.
The following activities are strictly prohibited and may trigger such interventions:
- engaging in price manipulation, coordinated trading, or any other malicious activity intended to distort real or simulated market conditions;
- using vulnerabilities of the Services, including but not limited to latency, pricing, execution logic, or other unfair means, in a way that may cause harm to the Platform, the Firm, or other users;
- engaging in any other conduct which, in our reasonable opinion, may damage the integrity or stability of the Platform, the orderly functioning of the simulated environment, or the reputation of Hash Hedge.
