A male dominated industry, majority of the traders who will lose their money are in their early 20's.. show tits get hits.. Thats basically the situation. Twitch.tv has the same problem.

But man, try to tell an FT cult member you aren't comfortable with the statement made and they will rip your face off. Cult... that cool aid is drank.

Also koop.... not my type.

It's amazing they continue to back this company when they can't even pay those that do make a profit. I mean, seriously, titties only get you so far, I can see them anywhere.

Instead of finding a better prop firm why don't you talk about best ways to pass evaluation procces on FTMO she is proved that pays and things like that..... these empty search!?
passing is not a problem ( to me )

The thing is consistently maining DD levels within limits is the ones one should look out.
Intraday only.

Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to me. Take more time before the next one. I want to see myself not breaking the DLL for at least 100 trading days before the next challenge. Passing can be done in few days. But consistency is what matters. It took me a year of failure to realise that.
Mindset is everything.

Damn man, chill!! Isn't this the 2nd or 3rd?
I think you should take sometime out to figure what the issue is...
You don't seem to have a problem hitting that 10% (kudos), but if you don't start risking based on percentages you may just end up repeating this cycle over and over..

Personally, I think hitting 10% is the challenging part, the DD limits seem more than ample to me

Good luck either ways Navk!!

Lol no one has beaten your record yet Rmg.

{quote} lot size matters in funded account.
dude, if i may, why don t u use a % risk based instead of lots? that way no matter the account size u have u deal in % risk and return. it s the easiest way to deal with fear of losing on a bigger account etc..greed and so on. atleast imo ofc (just saw that Koop also suggested that and others, my apologies). what if u could average 1% a day? risking say 0.5% for example.. some days u could end up doing way more but if u think like that and don t over do it when r already in good proft..1 lousy % a day on average is 20% a month( on average) cos sometimes u can do more sometimes less..and depending on the account size it makes for more then a decent living..just my opinion ofc. what u guys think?

FTMO are latching onto the lamboraul thing pretty hardcore and I am starting to think it is some marketing arrangement between the two parties. Both sides are like really pushing it. Raul for his courses and ftmo to get traders. I don't like it.

nor you liked when i said that the forum had proved that FTMO used paid for fake reviews in the past....yet you not liking that doesnt make it untrue...

i can pretty much believe that history can repeat and it is some sort of paid/collaboration/influencer gig to some extent.
there is always, always another trade!!

That's what it's currently at? How are you guys seeing it?
FTMO should have probably skipped doing that interview. They don't need such controversial publicity whether the results are true or false.. It does more for Raul's brand than their image.

FTMO is getting much competition with new prop firms using same model but better conditions. FTMO needs to come up with ways to keep inflow of new traders.

I like when businesses use win-win solutions. For some reason FTMO is using win-lose solutions. Let me give you two examples.

1. max. daily loss at 5% - I like this rule BUT why use this as a reason to terminate Challenge/Verification and keep the fee? Would it be so hard from the technical point to setup a rule in MT4 Manager where after account is down 5% in a day the trading will be disabled? And trader can continue to trade next day? Why terminate account and keep the fee instead of helping traders to succeed?

2. max. daily loss at 5% of funded account - I'm going to use lamboraul example here. He is up 175K after 3,5 weeks. Let's say the account is real and profits are real. Now, imagine worse case scenario where he makes some losses (he is risking 2% per trade) and some unexpected large move happens on gold and he losses more than expected and he violates max. daily loss of 15K on his account? His account would drop from 475K down to 460K. He still would have 160K of profits. Because of violation the FTMO would terminate the account.

What would happen to outstanding 160K profits? Do you think FTMO would keep it (let's assume his account is copied to live account)? Do you think FTMO would profit split the outstanding profits?

Here is the answer. (I had conversation with the FTMO customer support today)

I like FTMO. But do you think it is fair to keep profits for themselves after you violate the rule?
How many traders lost their funded accounts due to this rule? With technical solution all those traders could still be trading and bringing profits to the FTMO.

They could setup their business with win-win solutions. Why do they use win-lose solutions?

They could setup conditions around this rule to help traders to continue trading instead of kicking them out and keeping fee/profits/money.

I guess my advice would be this. If you trade with FTMO, take money out every month. If you keep profits in for few months and then you happen to violate max. daily loss limit, you will lose all your profits. I think the rest of this year may turn out to be critical for FTMO. They must start making improvements to keep traders instead of kicking them out. Otherwise many will go to other firms with similar model once they prove themselves.

Maybe we should pressure FTMO to fix this in favor of traders.

What do you guys think?
