I can attest to this as well. TradingView has great charts, but TERRIBLE trade execution. Alerts aren't reliable either if you are using them as triggers for automated trading, even if only for closing trades based on signals, etc. This has been the ...

I'm not voting for either idiot of the so-called "major" parties for presidential candidates, so I have no horse in this race so to speak. The only thing I have to contribute to this conversation is that NOTHING will change so long as the US federal ...

Having written many articles myself (scientific and other topics), I know full well what plagiarism is. But since you apparently do not, let me quote the dictionary for you: "Presenting work or ideas from another source as your own, with or without ...

Blatant plagiarism.

I really can't, I've got too much of an investment into Ninja Trader with my automation and scripts I have written (trailing stops, number of contracts based on risk % and distance to stop loss which is based on ATR, etc., etc.). Hiring a programmer ...

Not to mention, it's really difficult to trade copy Rithmic with Ninja Trader since their API only allows one connection at a time, where Tradovate can connect to multiple accounts at once. You have to do silly things with VPNs or VPSes and network ...

No target for the instant accounts.

CFTC just WON'T stop LYING! It's no wonder MFF wants things IN CAMERA for proof.

All of these futures prop firms have issues almost daily. You need an active Discord just to hear feedback from others and know if you can trade that day or not or wait for them to reset everything due to failures.

TopStep is down, orders not getting processed, can't close open trades, etc. Waiting to hear more information, but their Discord has many people in my shoes. UPDATE: Looks like they fixed it and it's back up. Digging my way back out now.

In Rithmic Trader Pro, you can set daily limits for an auto liquidate, and a time to close all trades, etc. It is server side instead of client based, so I use it as a safety net in case my internet or power goes out while using Ninja Trader.

Did I miss something?

Only on their own platform so far. They also treat max number of contracts as equal between minis and micros instead of 10:1, also unless using their own platform. I think they are encouraging people to use their own platform instead of NinjaTrader, ...

"Hi Aaron, Apologies sir. But these rules are made to ensure more sustainability in the business model." No doubt.

So, I emailed support and said, "Many people use automated trailing stops. I'm not aware of them having a two minute timer. This is not a good rule." Their reply was: "The 2 minutes rule affects only funded accounts Aaron. And if you have a pre-set ...

So no automated trailing stop or ATM strategies for the first two minutes. That's stupidly ridiculous. There's not a single trailing stop or ATM strategy I'm aware of that has a two minute timer on it. Prop firms just keep inventing new ways to ...

There have been many emails shared with these facts after being funded. I'm not currently in any Forex prop firm Telegram and Discord groups anymore to dig them up, having been forced into futures instead. But you can find them. One was just shared ...

Cumulative floating loss and maximum daily loss aren’t the same thing. They don’t want more than 1% risk in open trades at once essentially. You can still lose 5x in a day on 5 different trade ideas if each had a cumulative 1% risk (regardless how ...

Yeah, FTMO has often reduced overall risk % or leverage to reduce exposure on funded traders. They don't care if you use 1:100 leverage on the evals, but they don't like more than 1:5 or so on funded accounts. It's not written anywhere to my ...

It's not written on their website, other than their suggestion in their tips on their blog: url However, they have frequently enforced this on funded accounts, just not on evals. They can enforce any rule they want to impose on you.
