Security & compliance
VPN / VM / shared IP / unusual login behavior: what gets flagged
TL;DR
VPN/VPS is allowed, but the moment your setup makes it look like account sharing / group trading / restricted region access, you’ll get flagged. Keep it consistent and clean.
How it works
PropXP monitors for compliance/fraud patterns, especially anything that makes it hard to verify who is actually trading.
What typically triggers a flag:
- Sudden location jumps (Italy > Singapore > US in 3 hours)
- Multiple devices / weird device fingerprints / “emulator-y” setups
- Shared IP patterns consistent with passing services / coordinated trading
- Connecting from, or appearing to connect from, a restricted country/region (even via VPN)
Common gotchas
- Using a shared VPS (or “team VPS”) screams “not solo trader.”
- Hotel Wi-Fi + phone hotspot + VPN hops can create a “multiple users” footprint.
- A VPN is not a “geo bypass tool.” If you use it like that, expect compliance action.
Example
You normally trade from Rome. One day you log in from a datacenter IP in another country, then from a second country an hour later. That’s a classic “who is actually trading?” trigger. Expect a review and possibly a request for documentation.
