Apex Trader Funding: daily reset and automated trading

From the same preset as the rules table. Anything PassTraq has not read in Apex Trader Funding’s own rules says so — nothing is estimated.

When the trading day resets

6 PM New York time (ET)

Apex Trader Funding’s new trading day starts at this time, and a daily loss limit, on plans that have one, resets with it. An end-of-day drawdown can be measured at a different time — confirm it on the firm’s site.

Automated trading (bots, strategies)

Automated trading (bots, algorithms, HFT) is prohibited on all Apex account types. Read from Apex help-center search previews; the site refused direct reads.
