Disliked{quote} whats with you people comparing small accounts with high leverage to bigger accounts with smaller leverage ? thats like saying $10 account with 1:5000 leverage is the same as a $100k account with 1:50 leverage, you start with the $10 account and ill start with the $100k account lets see who can make more than 1 trade on it before they blow itIgnored

Disliked{quote} Lol Pipmaster already attempted that challenge with OutThere. 20k account with 1:6 leverage and 4% max DD vs $875 personal account balance with 1:200 or so leverage. Guess which one survived. You're not understanding the maths man. Btw, no one is comparing small accounts to bug account. We are simply telling you that Topstep is offering you a small account and masking it as a big account with terms like buying power ... Look here{image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} why do you keep showing me their forex offerings ? i was always talking about the futures offerings, and i dont care who attempted what its basic math, if you arent capable of makin 5% on a 100k account you wont make 50% on a $5000 account.Ignored

Disliked{quote} Because it is exactly the same as the futures offering but you're not just seeing it hahaha. They both say 100k buying power or 150k Buying power. Tell me the difference between both offerings in terms of buying power please. But Fx takes it a step further and explains in the FAQ that what you you actually get is a 1000$ account with 1:100 leverage. Don't let the change in wording confuse you. Also, vice versa, if you can't make 50% on a 5k account with 1:100 leverage, you can't make 5% on a 100k account with no leverage. BUT that's not...Ignored
Disliked{quote} the point is you people dont know the difference between forex and futures, first go learn something about it then come back and we will talk about it. 100k on forex and 100k on futures is very different. forex requires large leverage, futures requires smaller leverage because the markets move differently, us500 moves 10 times more than GBP/USDIgnored

DislikedHi Tomas I have raised this issue in chat but not on this thread, awareness here may prompt you to respond quicker. I am not here to bash FTMO but as your company is somewhat at the forefront of this type of prop model I would expect that you want to rectify this situation with some urgency. The issue is the lack of historical chart data (only 12 months) on all instruments apart from Eur-Usd /Gbp-Usd on the cTrader platform. I believe from another thread your other platform offering MT4 has a good chart history. There is nothing informing the consumer...Ignored

DislikedFirst I would like to share that I passed my challenge after several tries and am excited to be in the verification. By and large I think the FTMO offering is a good one, the overall rules are understandable, and I look forward to working together. I'm also looking at doing additional challenges to have more to work with. Thanks also for fixing an issue in the updated calendar. I reported that it was silently displaying no banned events on any but the most bleeding-edge browsers. It was fixed quite quickly, thank you. With the newer liquidity providers...Ignored
DislikedA thought just occurred to me! I've been playing around in MetriX a bit more recently. Never paid too much attention to the trade log there before but it seems it's been gaining features. Would it be possible to add to each trade its max floating loss and the corresponding price it reached? This would be useful in 2 ways: First, it would help greatly in reducing the nervousness I mentioned in my other post while waiting for a disputed violation to be investigated; if I know when I was last flat and can see the max loss of trades following matches...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Just to give an update, FTMO got back to me relatively quickly, confirmed there was no violation, and gave me some extra time. Very happy with that, thanks. I think they even had it ready for me by the next trading day. But then unfortunately it happened again today, this time saying my max daily floating loss was $1642 higher than it ever was, so I'm locked out again. I documented it (XHK-SCLQQ-447) and I'm sure they will take care of it. It's still super stressful, although less so now that I know the drill and had a good idea when it...Ignored
DislikedManaged to pass the free trial with 100% win rate, might be worth considering to take the real challenge after one/two repetitions! {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi DeltaVega, I have been facing issues as well with the Metrix on the free trial account however. This has put me off from trying the paid challenge. My issues are with stop losses when they are hit either in profit or loss they are not counted (on some days) So this causes either exaggeration or underestimation of the amounts. I have contacted support and gave them my e-mail no one got back to me. It has been I think a month or so. Did you use ''Bandicam'' to prove your end ? How did you document it ? Anyone else using ''Bandicam'' ? And...Ignored
DislikedTomas, I know you have mentioned this before about the minimum trading days, but given that Funding Talent recently announced that they have completely removed their minimum days requirement, are any discussions being had about lowering the number of required trading days? I hate to talk about a competitor in this thread, but Funding Talent now has lower profit targets, no minimum days, and faster payouts. Not to mention no news or trading restrictions at all. While FTMO has far better spreads and tech, the offerings of competitors are too hard...Ignored
