{quote} Are you funded by FTMO yet?
Yes, 200K, passed two separate challenges so far. I trade FTMO alongside my personal accounts. Fees have been refunded, it's just extra money at this point. My personal success or failure (or anyone else for that matter) is irrelevant as to the legitimacy of the company. As long as they deliver what is promised, not sure why all the conspiracy theories. I am not specifically "pro FTMO", however I am pro FTMO model. With that being said, there are some really bad apples popping up, so one does need to be careful when selecting a prop firm.

{quote} Some years back, there was this Gainsy scam...
Near the latter part of 2014 I recall a trader by the FF name, WElliott, he/she traded with Gainsy, had a TE and a myfxbook account.

Incredible gains shown over a very short period of time and just when investors flocked into Gainsy I witnessed an incredible reversal in trading gains that basically emptied the accounts equity.

I never did find out exactly what happened but I certainly can guess.

Be careful traders.

Yes, this one is charging $300 for $200 in DD. What a steal! I can put $300 in a personal account, trade larger positions than I could with them and NOT GIVE THEM 50%! The scaling is the marketing trickery as even when you scale, DD is still 4%. By stage 3, your personal account is much larger than what they are providing you to trade with.

Maybe the extra $100 is for the tree???

No physical address listed and of course no reviews yet so I'd pass and let the other mice go for the cheese first and then see if they get their necks snapped

Plenty of other options with a track record.

Not a recommendation. Just sharing my experience so far with City Trader's Imperium.

1)Spreads and trading conditions have been very good.
2)Email support response time has been very good.
3)Only 75 reviews on Trustpilot but 93% are excellent, 5% great and only 1 poor.

My only issue is that they don't have a trader's dashboard yet. Seems that they were in a hurry to get in the game and forgot to put their underwear on before putting on their pants. I asked them a few weeks ago about this and they said they would have it done by the end of March. Not done yet so I emailed again today and got this response. Not a red flag by any means, but it would be nice if they could get this done.

I’ve had a good look over this firm and a first pass says it might be a possibility.

20k account is £300 after successfully completing a 6% gain on a 5k evaluation account having a max 4% relative DD.
60k account is £700 after successfully completing a 6% gain on a 15k evaluation account having a max 4% relative DD.

12.5% gain leads to a doubling effect up to a max account size of 2 Million.

The 2 tables on their website lays it out well with one for the 20k account and the other for the 60k account.

Apparently once you start from either the 20000 or 60000 account they are traded live.

So a tight risk management approach by the firm is to be expected.

Profit split is not favorable with only 10% for verification stage afterwhich its 50% split up to about 1,000,000.

Then if a trader is able to generate another 12.5% gain in equity they may qualify as an ‘Elite Trader’ earning a base salary plus bonuses (whatever the bonuses might be ??).

Appears to be a very long path comprising of about 7 or 8 levels to gain top dog status.

A very tight band for the drawdown including max lot sizes as well.

Taking on this type of challenge and the time involved to move through the levels you would certainly want to be reasonably satisfied that the firm was going to be around.

1. So what if she is a woman?
2. If you look at her youtube profile, it is kinda obvious that the profile is rigged.

Yes fairly new on the block.

I guess only time will tell.

At least it's a possibility but as always due diligence required.

Literally, the same exact model as City Traders Imperium except CTI's fees are 50% less than "tradeSAD" . For example, CTI's 20K challenge is 200 Euros. And as I had mentioned previously, CTI has an outstanding review profile so far.

As a funded FTMO trader, my next conquest is Enfoid. Everything in these deals is the fee vs allowable loss, forget about the great scaling plan for a minute. It's very clever marketing that can fool even the best math minds INITIALLY. I'm telling you guys, do the math....if you are paying $300 for $200 max DD, what size position will you be trading? Answer is....smaller than you would if you put that $300 in a personal account. Everything needs to be calculated on risk of ruin, so if you're risk of ruin is 20 trades, you would risk $10 per trade with 200 DD, you can risk $15 per trade in that personal account. 6% means you need to make $300, so trading the same size in personal you'll have $600 ($300+ $300 you just made). Now they scale you to $20K, DD still 4%, which is $800, from that $800 you need to make 12.5% to scale again, which is $2500. Personal account is only $600 v $800, so you'd only make $1875 in personal account, putting you at $2475. Now they only double you to $40K, 4% DD is $1600, BUT your personal account has $2,475 in it. I'll stop here, but do the math on a couple more levels.....it will blow your mind! Any deal where your fee is more than your allowable loss, you are way better trading that "fee" in a personal account

I don't recommend anyone until we see 6months- 1 year of efficient payouts. As one experienced trader recently stated, it's not losing the fee, it's losing the time and effort to pass the stages to get to the funded account.

Competition taking ideas of others and implementing them into their own business models, certainly a common practice.

I haven't looked at CTI yet but shall do so very soon.
