Note: We also do not monitor any account labels for consistency with trading strategies or outcomes, nor do we control any Sub-account according to any label. For example, if you label a Sub-account as “Low risk” we do not apply any limits on that account to keep it to a lower risk profile. That remains your responsibility. However, we may investigate and/or require you to change an account label if we believe it may suggest conduct that is unlawful or in breach of our Agreement or policies.
