Forum Rules

Welcome to YoForex! These rules keep our community helpful, respectful, and focused on what matters: trading better together.

Quick Wins

  • Be helpful and respectful in every post
  • Search before posting to avoid duplicates
  • Stay on topic in each category
  • Share real results, not promises or hype
  • No spam, self-promotion, or affiliate links

The Rules

  1. Be respectful: Disagree with ideas, not people. No insults, no trolling, no personal attacks.

  2. Stay on topic: Post in the right category. EA questions go in EA forums, broker reviews in Broker Directory, etc.

  3. No spam: Don't post the same thing multiple times. One thread is enough. No affiliate links unless you're answering a direct question.

  4. Share real proof: If you claim results, show proof. Screenshots, backtests, broker statements (with sensitive info blurred).

  5. Give credit: If you use someone's code, indicator, or EA, mention them. It's the right thing to do.

  6. No scams: Don't sell fake signals, rigged EAs, or promise guaranteed returns. We'll remove it and you.

  7. Use clear titles: Help people find your thread. Instead of "Help!", write "EURUSD H1 – EA stops after 3 trades".

  8. Be patient: People answer when they can. Bumping your thread every hour won't help.

Mini-FAQ

Q: What happens if I break a rule?
A: First time, we'll send a warning. Repeat offenses get temporary bans. Serious stuff (scams, abuse) gets you removed.

Q: Can I promote my paid EA or service?
A: Only in the Marketplace section, and you must follow seller guidelines. No DM spam.

Q: What if someone is being rude to me?
A: Don't engage. Use the Report button or contact a moderator. We'll handle it.

Q: Can I post affiliate links?
A: No, unless someone specifically asks for a broker recommendation and you disclose it's an affiliate link.

Q: I made a mistake in my post. Can I fix it?
A: Yes! Edit your post within 24 hours. After that, reply with a correction.
