with 100:1 leverage, 5000$ account has effectively 500.000$ buying power.
what is the big deal?

isnt paying an upfront fee to demo "qualifying" at topstep an outright "risking your own money"?

If it is only 5000, your profit expectations are insane, BTW commissions are high as well ..

TST program was never intended to produce winning traders. it is all about to collect the upfront monthly fee, even for the demo qualifier.
profit target alone isnt enough, dont trade on news, or thereafter, but turn over 50 lot+ each steps.
padded commission in the meantime works against the trader, where 1 lot nowadays can be traded for 4-6$ really...not 8$.
and yes, for some, that leverage and buying power may be misleading...
5k account with 100:1 leverage = 500.000 (5 lot max) "buying power" ...
1k account with 500:1 leverage = 500.000 (5 lot max) "buying power" ...

btw, they let you open 5 lot max on the entry levels...that you can open on your own meager 1000$ account @ 500:1 leverage...
if you allow yourself 2 months to complete the 2 steps of combine, just about the monthly fees to pay out (2x 275$)...+ they gain average approx 2$/lot traded, and you need to make in the 2 steps the least 100 lot (80+80) volume...further 320$ loss for the trader vs trading just only 6$/lot cost.
easy to see, overall one will come out behind, pass or fail the program, doesnt matter!
of course it is geared toward failing, and then generously allowing ppl to retake a new 'combine' for a new fee, of course.

anyway, those who dont see behind the math, sure, go for this great opportunity ( and great meant sarcastically, for those it isnt obvious!)
it is a legit business, even though the presentation is misleading; a reason i added some simple math above to see behind the offer, for what really is and isnt there.
i think those who has no 1000$ own money to trade at better commission and conditions ( only can assume the spreads are neither industry leader), then they wont be better of paying 275$ monthly fee a clip neither.

PS. Patje, i think you meant their expectations
