1 min. readlast update: 01.01.2025

In ANY single or multiple funded accounts, it is forbidden by the exchange to place opposite direction trades simultaneously (short and long) on the same product, at the same time.

If this happens, the brokerage will permanently close your account. No exceptions.

CME rule 534 prohibits this type of trading and below are some links for your reference:
