As a trader, I am questioning the discrepancy between them and providing the benefit of the doubt to Darwinex due to positive result and questioning the underlying motive of the other two provider at this point. This is backed by the result's I have got so far not just an opinion from reviewing their website or online material.
We have a different opinion about this because my experience with FTMO is different, my results are the same. But lets see what happens this week, maybe we see it by the end of the week the same.

First trade of the week. Above FTMO, below Darwinex.

Isn't that the whole point of this thread is to figure out how to get the edge with these Prop funds? with all their conditions they have stacked the deck against traders who want to get funding. if my research and result can help someone else to make an informed decision on how they can approach the process to get a foot in the door, then it meets the objective of the thread IMHO.

Thanks for sharing your experience here Garfield75.

I can understand traders requesting more details from you because they too wish to find out the reasons for any discrepancy backed up by detailed analysis however, you are free to provide as much or as little information as you see fit.

Traders will simply have to draw their own conclusions based on the information being provided or simply run the tests themselves.

similarly, only ask for real feedback if the needed info is provided.
if you cant or unwilling to do for whatever reason...
the only question to ask is from yourself: are you really looking for feedback??

In some (all) of my latest posts on other Threads, I often (always) complain about all the effort and commitment
I put into building my latest Trading "Style". Of course I'm happy (and proud) that I did.

But why, in the last few weeks, I have decided to neglect everything, to dedicate myself exclusively to this project
that I have been thinking/working on for years, I have not written anything yet. And here I can connect to this Thread.

There was something that, at one point, appeared to me as a "pattern". Reading the interviews with Traders who got an account financed
with a certain Prop Firm (his name is not important), it seemed to me that I often saw the same situation.
Now, I'm not saying it's really what I think, but I wanted to believe this "coincidence" and this led me to the final rush and finally to conclude,
my exhausting search.

Of the last 26 Traders who have obtained an account funded with this Prop Firm (it only has the classic 28 Fx pairs and, I repeat,
that its name is not important), I have selected 13 Traders. The exact half.

Click on the image and see the data of their operation. What do you notice like this?

Yes, looks like an apartment complex to me. Maybe all of his employees and support staff live with him? Seriously, these people aren't even making an attempt to look like a legitimate business.

You found it. Not important where.
Just funded accts typically don't get special permissions though.
Like newly hired workers....

appearing like mushrooms everywhere (he does look like he could use some cash coming in from newbies)

So even with all the millions they have available for us to trade they're so laid back as CEOs of big financial companies that they manage the whole operation from their bedroom! talk about a great first impression... thank god wordpress if open source and you can get a cool template for 15 bucks !!

I've the feeling that these morons (the scamming ones) are going to kill the industry even before it matures (and we get a decent chance to profit from it) as soon as regulator jump in, just like binary options, they'll be nothing left for the little fish anymore.

Yet another correction. Sometimes the automatic translator goes crazy.
There are certainly over 40 FX pairs

We talk about Challenge accounts, to get the account funded. Not of accounts already funded.
My point, honestly, was not to question the funded accounts or the Prop Firm. In fact, I wanted to avoid his name.
My point was how they came to get this account funded.
That is, 50% of these Traders made use of a large number of pairs to get the result (100% of 26 are all over 5-7 pairs, if I remember correctly).
This blows up all the theories that have spread over all these years, where it is always advised to focus only on a couple, in order to know them well and trade them with more confidence. In fact, it is a fact that every couple has fairly "stable" behaviors over time.
Perhaps, to reach the goal of the funded account, also given the time limits, there is a preference of 50% of Traders, to work with a Multi-pair set. Just this.

How about this amazing home-office oneman-show "prop firm": https://www.patreon.com/TradeHappy that actually has a patreon page !
I guess if he gets several million 6$ or plus monthly patreons he'll manage to pay the profit splits from the live million dollar accounts of his profitable traders
If you pay more you can get all those fancy indicators and trading strategies... and you'll be HAPPY (and him too) !!
Be aware that this is just some "change" to help back up the huge investors that are behind the operation, right ?
Oh and if you stay long, you'll also get a mug and a T-shirt !!!
so, basically, everyone is "funding" traders, nowadays! how cool is that ?! What a great time to be a trader, MONEY EVERWHERE!!

This is so blatantly weird... sorry guys, I'm losing it

every situation every day on every pair has never happened in the past. a "patern" that worked yesterday and for 10 days in a row doesnt mean it will happen everytime or it wont bring 10 losses in a row. it depends on were it happened and when.

time is as much of an important factor as the price.

BUT every pair, does respect certain things in my experience. things that do happen in certain timeframes in certain days and certain "pivots". by focusing on few pairs, you learn to identify them.

for example, i know for a fact that in the past 16 years, cooper, every late august-september goes up and then down again during the spring. (that is a fact i know it from my normal work were i do buy and sell cooper tubes). a rfiend has shared with me something similar with gold, but since it is not my observation i will not share.

there are other ways around price and patterns and indicators to trade without even the need to look at a chart though.

ps. am not saying you should focus on a few pairs (that is what works for me and i do recomend it but it is not necesserly correct). whatever works for you

{quote} ....BUT every pair, does respect certain things in my experience. things that do happen in certain timeframes in certain days and certain "pivots"....
Exact.
In particular, I referred to "stable behaviors" as typical situations that I remember very well.
For example when I was only working on the GBPJPY pair, and its response to Fibonacci levels, it was a real show.
In another period, when I was only looking at XAUUSD, a rebound on some Pivot levels was not certain, but very likely for sure.

Returning instead to the preference (apparently) of a good part of Traders, on the use of many pairs (right or wrong does not matter)
I believe it is possible to work like this, only in three ways:
1) use a torque change tool.
Possible, but you become crazy to continuously scan all the couples at your disposal and at all times, constantly looking for a possibility of entry.
2) use an EA that works on all pairs and is profitable.
Possible, but only in this case, 13 different EAs would have been used.
But how many are there around?
3) use a method that includes one or more Baskets.
Possible, and since points 1 and 2 are impossible for me, it was the path I chose (it had been under study for many years).

Or who knows ... a mix of the 3?

PS:
yes, of course everyone has to work as they feel most comfortable. There is no better method or worse. Not even the method for everyone.

You're not reading right, mate, it's 6 months for a mug, so hopefully you should get 2 mugs, assuming you haven't blown your daily max loss limit
