Notes. FX-first CFD firm; crypto leverage only 1:2. Only EAs you built yourself are allowed, and GFT may ask for the source code. Copying is allowed only between your own GFT accounts using the paid GOAT Trade Copier. Weekend holding allowed but Friday-to-Monday gap trades lose their funded profits. KYC (Veriff or Rise) happens at the first payout request. Crypto symbol count isn't listed on the help pages.
