It is not that direct like TFT with their paid comments (with money), but TPT is in one way more aggressive, because they emailed me that 'win a prize' paid comment offer without being client from them so far. I only asked them via chat and had to leave my email address. TFT addresses only funded traders. Not good both. See here:

Quoting Capablanca
{quote} There's also a point in favour of E8 which is first payment after 7 days. After that is biweekly like TFF {quote} But, as I said, I never got a payment on E8 yet. I know payment process is not very efficient in TFF but I don't have a clue how it runs in E8. Let's hope I can get there in a near future.
Thanks Capa! I'm aware of this...its one of the things that tilted me towards E8...

{quote} Forgot to mention something that may be (or not) relevant. E8Funding limits funded capital allocated to 300K while TFF is 400K.
Hmm. I didn't know this, but it doesn't much matter to me..

Thanks again

{quote} and....if you are a good trader, wouldn't earning 20x the return FOR THE SAME EFFORT be a good thing. Never mind, I must learn not to engage. Complete waste of time.
Yah. I wasn't trying to convert the fallen to the knee in awe of funding companies crowd.
You guys just pop up every other post.
Whom I was didn't respond.

Alright, firstly, by 'mental illness' I meant 'crazy'. No disrespect.
Secondly, I have to put a member on the spot to make my point. Sorry, begging forgiveness.

So, doji, had a real impressive performance here: https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...7#post13915627
That was more than 5 months ago.

I trust that doji is a consistent such trader and of course as mentioned all trades done manually.

My question is why after 5 months, such a trader should still be knocking on doors?
A good trader can't find eligible funding companies. Why?

Is it because nowadays a good trader has to conform to all sorts of sub-par conditions in order perform magic?
You know. there is just something wrong with the picture.
I think this industry is heavily loaded on the quantity than quality.

So, the burning question is, why such a good trader has to waste 5 months (and potentially more before and after the 5 months)?
I donno, my mind boggles how an account would have grown over 5 months starting with 1K.
Sorry doji...real nice work btw.

My friend is trading at MFF and she said that spreads are harmful when the market opens at the beginning of a new week and every day. {image} Has anyone had trouble with the MFF spread?
Spread is industry average
but slippage is ridiculous

{quote} Deep dive, you will find the owner of TPT is the owner of TBSC or whatever they wanna call it. Originally the site was only in spanish and pretty clearly stated the two were the same owner. Now its a bit less obvious. People can still get mt5 servers easily
Which prop firm is the most like IC Markets?

I'm trying the demo of FTMO and there's definitely a difference between FTMO and IC Markets.

Instead, FTMO demo seems like a Coinexx demo.

Thanks Capablanca, so this is the same as FTMO. As far as I can see, only FTMO and E8 offer 14 day free trials or are there other prop firms that offer a free trial?

FTMO is a smoothed version of the LMAX feed.

ICMarkets and MFF are very similar but not related, i believe they do have a vendor in common.

On The prop Trading I see free trial in the dashboard. I think you may need to create an account login to access dashboard and then request the trial. Never tried that but I believe you don't have to purchase anything.

Their slippage filter prevents 10 pip slippage unless during news. They have made that statement public about their filters. The discord is full of cry babies during news, all the time, tomorrow will be the same during CPI. NFP is the same. I trade there, I trade big, the only time there is harsh slippage is during news, and thats from my 100 lot size positions on CFD's. Which should slip to oblivion every trade because of liquidity but dont.
