The key words here are ‘may be’ and ‘unlawful’. These trades may be declared invalid only in case they are obviously unlawful. The reason we include this rule in the Agreement is that we faced many problems with cheaters. There are some bugs in MetaTrader that can be used by cheaters to make profits from the system’s vulnerability. It makes the company lose its money for the company is not able to hedge such trades. These trades last less than 2 minutes.
If you are an honest scalper (not a cheater) you have nothing to worry about for unlawful trades are easy to identify. Nobody will be going to cancel real scalpers trades.
