FROM LUX:
We all know of the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Lux Trading Firm strongly condemns this act of war. We have decided to request our traders not to trade, until further notice.
We ask this because A. is an extremely abnormal situation with extraordinary market conditions, and B. we find it highly unethical to make profits from the suffering of the Ukrainian people. We thus ask our traders to not open any new positions until further notice. Results of any position opened during this period will not count for passing an evaluation, nor will live profits have an effect on monthly results and payouts.
The owners of Lux Trading Firm also own a recreational area in Slovakia, close to the Ukrainian border. They have offered the local Slovak government the use of this area for humanitarian purposes.
Disliked{quote} Give me an example of what I have said which does not make sense or untowards and I shall answer it. I am NOT asking for any FF member to be funded traders - quite the reverse. Have you read what I wrote? I am saying the exact opposite. I have never taken the tests and I never would. No bank (or any other institution) asks people to pay a fee in order to be interviewed for a job. Any interview or job that requires the potential employee to make an up-front payment with no guarantee of a job is usually a scam. If this is a genuine company...Ignored
Disliked{quote} I’ve traded in the pits on LIFFE, IPE and NYMEX over the last 20 years, have you? Your posts speak to someone who clearly doesn’t understand fully what trading is about nor the meaning of the word scam. Best of luck on your trading journey… clearly you are going to need it.Ignored
Dislikedfound this on your guys's site "Unfortunately, at this time, we are not allowed to process payments to the Russian Federation and regions of Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea in Ukraine and our clients from there, as per the latest sanctions imposed in connection with the geopolitical developments in Ukraine. Payouts to our clients from/in the subject locations will be possible once the imposed sanctions are lifted. Crypto payouts are included in the restrictions." It makes sense for euros and usd to be blocked, but cryptos doesn't make sense. Also at...Ignored
DislikedHowever, i wont take my rage out on how useless crypto is here.... lol - just enjoy the bubble (or what's left of it)Ignored
Disliked{quote} What are you expecting - sanctions are not mutually ethical, nor are they at the fault of FTMO, they are imposed - you can blame RU payments on SWIFT sanctions. It also makes total sense for cyrptos to be blocked - if anything it also shows how useless they are in the real world vs vanilla bank backed currency.

DislikedHI VITAK We all know that at the moment there is a war between Russia and Ukraine. As I know many traders lost their equity of their challenges because of war, including me. when war is starting I was trading 4 challenges too. I'm lost equity for two of them.. one is a challenge and the other is verification.. the account will expire next Monday. But really hard to increase the equity of accounts on time. do you give us any chance for increasing our equity of challenge? or let us lose our challenge at FTMO. if there is anything new please update...Ignored
Disliked{quote} So if you made profits due to the war...would you say you got lucky and ask FTMO to re-asses you/not pay you? EDIT: This is funny. You claimed to have made US 13,000 just ten posts ago, but now you're crying over 2 lost accounts (won't cost you more than USD 5,000).Ignored
Disliked"If anyone managed to score a good profit on one of these, don’t be shy to share." To be fair, Vitek did encourage sharing of trading results, so it does have to do with this thread.Ignored
Disliked{quote} If you want to see all of the companies legal paperwork and read the fine print ask them for a copy of the latest trader contract, that is what I did. My lawyer reviewed it and I was given the green light by him. If you are so inclined you can also call them and ask for any other documentation you need.Ignored
DislikedI entered a JP225 trade and didn't think to check for the early closing hours due to the holiday. I have an active account. Will FTMO take away my account due to the weekend/overnight violation? The market rollover is normally 1 hour and 15 minutes, but due to the early close it'll be 5 hours and 5 minutes. Is it a flat violation, or do they make exceptions depending on the circumstance?Ignored
Dislikedhello, i have a quick question guys, Does the spread in demo are the same in real? ex: gbp/usd 3-5? and is scalping are allowed? thanks for the answer.Ignored
Disliked{quote} From what i've heard, and I may be wrong - the account you trade in demo is what you would trade if you passed. You'd still be in demo after passing with the trades being sent to FTMO to [potentially] execute at their own account. Spreads in gbpusd are about 0.3/0.4 in liquid times, which I can see now. A mate of mine said the accounts we use are from LMAX feeds.Ignored

DislikedReceived my profit split and deposit refund within 1 business day, which is so unexpected because of the Ukraine Russia war issues I thought FTMO efficiency would be low or busy but no, they are still very efficient and professional in handling customers. Quick and helpful respond from the customer support is what impressed me the most. Benefits in FTMO strongly outweighs the cons. Great liquidity, everything is smooth and spreads are pretty low. On a scale of 10/10, I recommend traders trying FTMO.Ignored
