Just checked Blueberry leverage and max lots for forex
Attached Image (click to enlarge)
Click to Enlarge Name: Blueberry.PNG Size: 25 KB


If I didn't mess up:

1. Account size: 200K
2. Maximum margin requirement: 200K/1.5 = 133K
3. Leverage for forex 2 steps challenges: 1:50
4. Price of EURUSD: 1.10 (hypotetic)

5. Max lot size = (133K x 50) / 1.10 = 6M

6M means a max of 60 lots (aprox).

So, unless I made any mistake, Blueberry is OK for forex, unless people want to go for crazy lots. That's why I didn't have anything in my notes (I only take note of things that can affect me).

{quote} You are knowledgeable and seem to be an expert in this field, hence would love to invite you to take the challenge with me. Or are you laughing at the $50K proposed then we go for the $150k. Or you cannot afford $50k account with your personal broker like me. Then you open a $2500 account and I go with the $50k with MFFU. We shorten the time to 1 month for the challenge to save you from multiple margin calls.
First of all I am profitable trader as I live from trading. Second, I do not need to proof you anything as I have no boss. You can proof and convince yourself as I said. I am not the person who wants to compete with a random person. Where is the fun? What do I get if I win? It does not make any sense to me. And you are still not accepting that you not get $50k not even for margin, because it is all daytrading, and daytrading margins are very cheap to get on any broker. You get 4% or 5% of that capital as DDD they advertize. But it seems you just fall over for their cheap marketing tricks. The props do the math for sure. But if you believe any prop...too bad. Third, there is no margin call as I trade FX and not Futures. The leverage is 500:1 so plenty enough for any kind of strategy. As I said try to convince yourself from the other side like I said to you and then you are really enlightened. Why trust the math, the numbers or me ? Trust yourself in your own trading and setups and different accounts, like one account from MFFU and one comparable personal broker account. Trade it same way with same risk and see and decide yourself. Best advice.

In my earlier days as a teenager I lived for over 10 years in my whole childhood with competitions all days. I need to be better than everyone in my region, then my county, my state and then compared to whole country. I know what it means if you live and wake up with the work you need to do to be better than anyone else. I won a Gold medal in my state. I was on top in my country as one of the best young musicians with my instrument. I played in the best youth orchestra travelling around the globe. The good thing as independent trader is, there is no boss, there is no competition to make your life much harder. You only need to proof yourself and make profits. That is all you need. If you really want to do competitions, look at the endless trading games and competitions around, go for the Robbins World Cup and show them how good you are in trading, if you need that all for yourself. I only need and want the money, nothing else. I do not need any honors in trading myself. Point.

They have silently been changing few things, but if you are a real trader it wont affect.

Tomorrow I will double check the ones I took note.

For what I see in my notes (the important things to me), they had (about 2 weeks ago) a larger than usual time span for news (+/- 10 min, including pending orders and TP/SL - payout is voided but account is only banned if there is a continuous violation of the rule), the min 3 x 0.5% days (not really affecting me), martingale (not more than 5 positions, which doesn't affect me either), no grid (not a problem for me) and no fee refund (which is becoming the standard).

Yes refund is a legal problem.

As already stated in the post https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...7#post14998227, those are my criteria. Trandy is free to set his own criteria and show his choices, but he hasn’t been able to do so yet. Others are welcome to share as well his own mindset, we’re just exchanging ideas. Based on the available data currently and experience, some criteria are not ideal, in my opinion, such as the price being not at $150 for a 50k account, a maximum static profit target should be at 6%, and ideally, the account would be given directly without an evaluation phase (straight to the funded account). Moreover, there shouldn't be any complicated rules. That’s all metrics under review, and that will change over time, will be many revision. I think there have been a lot of changes over the past three months. We are certainly looking for what is most beneficial for us.

Update Report: Broker backed prop firm After reading many comments this past weekend and also learning from experience, I made some revised criteria on the previous model for broker-backed prop firms and added some new data. For the metric review, it has also been reduced from 10 to only 7 more important metrics. For Ultimate Traders and The Forex Funder, the available data is temporary, as there haven't been any updates on their websites following the acquisition or new beginning of the new business. For the comparison between Hantec Trader and...
Adding one more column for Northamerican traders will be great help as IC funded, Oanda, Vantage doesn't allow US, Canada.
Hantac has trailing withdrawal.
Axi select is a scam (broker is ok but funded heard stories year back of denial of funded accounts)
Think capital doesn't support MT4, MT5 or CTrader...Only supports their propritory platform or Platfrom 5 crap.

It is ok for forex but if you trade gold or indices it is crappy.
Why not just reduce leverage to 25:1 as it is essentially same.
for example for 50K account 150% equals 33.3K so if you remove daily loss limit of 5% so essentially you have around 30K as available margin.
So essentially it is 25:1 leverage.
