Been hammering GA last week and this week, cycle after cycle Red arrows are shorts and blue arrows are the cover. Oanda account linked into Tradingview.

GU short

Just passed the challenge on a 10k euro account, now onto verification!

Reading the terms and conditions, i can't see anything referring to downed servers or quotes. FTMO should extend all challenges/verifications by a day minimum and resolve any issues around losses incurred during this period.

That's annoying

Completing challenge, anyone else's quotes frozen?

Have until the 18-Nov to complete the challenge. Just half way and up 5.47% but this week is a no go for obvious reasons. I should be able to hit the 10% but if not, im in line for a free run:

I'd love send my trading record to a real prop firm. I have searched high and low but only come across the paid challenge model. Do you have any recommendations?

This is my first foray into utilising a prop firm. FTMO is the first but won't be the last. Looking at the 5%ers too as you can hold positions through news events and weekends. Profit split isn't as favourable but the benefits aforementioned along ...

It's not up to FTMO to teach anyone. Perhaps they do rely on a high failure rate of impatient novice traders to fund their funded traders. Again, the power is in the hands of the traders to prepare. There is no pressure to rush into taking the ...

I think you should calm down telling people to calm down ha ha

Calm as a cucumber mate, don't worry. But trying to figure out why my taking the challenge a week ago has anything to do with your initial statement here? You're all over the shop in your narrative. Your logic is that since I'm only a week into the ...

Can't speak to that yet, slippage is part of the game though, at any broker. I've seen slippage being mentioned here, so it's something I'll monitor and take on board. At least there is some substance to your question unlike Barnell and his/her hot ...

Simple fact is you can take as much time as you want, at no charge to prepare. If you jump straight in, with no track record, you'll get burned and rightly so. That's simply fact and no amount of laughing emojis and bland hollow statements will ...

With all due respect, its not FTMO's genius but rather new retail traders inability to be patient. Anyone can open as many demo accounts as they want, train themselves and ensure they can meet the requirements of the challenge before taking a single ...

Started the 10K (euro) challenge last Tuesday. Up 4.15% with little to no drawdown thus far. Not going to trade next week due the US presidential elections, so we'll see how the following week pans out. Either way, i won't go negative so i should ...

Took a sneaky short on EJ just below PP, price action was too tempting.

Monitoring EU price action for potential short. At R38 (and previous week extended to R100), at ADR high.

Nice one Davit! I caught some of the ranging EC action too! Have a great weekend!

EJ short, R138 proved difficult to crack and beyond ADR, quick 20 pips to meet the daily goal.
