Good Friday evening everyone,
I hope you’ve survived today’s NFP and perhaps even used it in your favour, the new FTMO Friday update is here.
Today I have just one quick announcement to share, and that is the scheduled maintenance that will take place on Saturday, 4th of December. Trading will be disabled on all platforms from 8 AM to 4 PM (GMT+2, MT4/5 server time), corresponding to 7 AM – 3 PM CET time. Kindly manage your trades accordingly.
Also, I would like to address one less pleasant topic, and that is the recent connection issues occurring on MetaTrader 5 platform.
We have recorded a few instances on which the platform kept disconnecting and reconnecting to the server for a few minutes. We are well aware of the issue and we are treating it with the utmost priority. I will be updating you on the situation in the following updates.
For now, let’s focus on your recent posts...
Hi Traderlevels, although I do understand that especially people who are just getting familiar with the proprietary trading business might perhaps be cautious and even suspicious at first, I believe using terms such as “fraud model” is completely unnecessary.
The short block of text from your website, unfortunately, includes numerous spurious and false statements (“99% of prop companies are a scam” etc.) and last but not least, promoting your website violates the code of conduct, which is presumably the reason why your membership got revoked.
Hi ChilledT, even though I agree that the irrelevant posts that appear here lately may have diluted the informativeness of the thread, I believe that it does not stop other users from regularly checking for the news. Glad to hear everything’s fine on your end!
Hello Gobigfx, I’m sorry to hear you’ve experienced issues with the MT5 platform. Please contact us at [email protected] and make sure to attach your log file (MT5: File - Open Data Folder - logs) so we can investigate the issue and compensate for the possible losses. Again, I believe that we have proved our credibility over the years and there’s no reason to call us a “scam”. The mentioned screen recording would be helpful as well.
Hi Faditrader, thank you for sharing your truly impressive results! I’m glad you’re overall satisfied with our services and I think that the following $6,000 payout is something you can be proud of.
Hi Tradeorbust, after 14 days from your first trade on your FTMO Account, you can choose the Profit Split Day. Of course, you can choose right the following day, but if you’d like to trade some more before withdrawing your profits, you can choose any other available date. The Profit Split Day can be changed up to 3 times for each withdrawal, anytime between 14 days and 60 days from the start of trading.
Hello SteveC, thank you for sharing your part, and I’m sorry to hear you’ve experienced any issues with the platform. Would you mind sending me your Verification login number via private message? I would like to check your case and see what exactly happened there, thank you.
And that's all I have to say for today, another rather short update is history. Have a peaceful weekend everyone, I'll have more to tell the next Friday.
Cheers,

Disliked{quote} With due respect there is nothing to do with psychology when it comes to prop firms, As their bogus claim of funding is nothing but a fraud model. Let me ask you sir, let say you are an investor and you want someone to trade your money, will you ask them to pay you? The fraud model got exposed here it self, why not give a trial not 1 month take 2 months provide free demo and let user prove their credibility without paying anything and if found good trader then give them a funds, simple as 1,2,3.Ignored

DislikedLots of negativity on this thread of late. People asking where all the funded traders are. Well, maybe they are busy trading and not wasting their time reading all the negative posts on here... If you can trade, give the challenge a go. If you don't want to, then don't. It's simple. I've been with FTMO for over a year and they do exactly as they say. Withdrawals are fast and straightforward, support is excellent. That's it really. Just wanted to say we are out here, trading and making money through FTMO. All the best :-)Ignored
DislikedThis is my 3rd challenge account where I could NOT get out of trades because their platform MT5 kept freezing. All-day long again todayIgnored
DislikedThis was payout first month , then i get too greedy and my next payout tomorrow is only 6K (Every 2 weeks payout). Them pay and them are the best !!! {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Congratulations on your success, I didn't know FTMO paid bi-weekly. I definitely got to do a challenge now.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I actually stumbled upon this site when looking for others who may have encountered the same issues. I've got to verification multiple times with FTMO to have MT5 freeze on me. Not only that, but there were times where it would hit my SL, but keep remaining open not allowing me to close out manually. I reached out to support multiple times to be told there was no problem. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and did another challenge for it to happen again..live chat finally admitted the issue and told me to email support who again denies...Ignored
