Firms hope to eliminate lucky winners but they also eliminate eg. trend followers who have a lot of small losses for one bigger win.
-Yes. Not all firms are accommodating for all trading types, unfortunately. But this is why having more options is good.

I see all this prop industry as a big forex videogame where we insert coins and cash out coins. Hopefully we extract more coins than the ones we insert, at the expenses of the losing players. Nothing wrong with that and I hope this doesn't change, because the day this changes is probably because the regulators came for it and the videogame machines will be switched off.

-For me, trading is like walking into a casino and being able to count cards at a blackjack table. Taking money from the house is like taking money from the market. It's no longer gambling when the odds are so heavily in your favor.

To quote a blog I used to read by a FF member from long ago (BillyRayVal) who wrote No Brainer Trades, "Take the easy ones, and don't do anything stupid in the meantime." Sticking to that rule really does put the odds in your favor.

Today I had a bad experience with Fundednex. For half an hour, I couldn't manage an open position, I couldn't even close it or move my stop loss. I don't know if it's a problem with Fundednex or with the broker Eightcap.
I ended up closing with profits, but what would have happened if I couldn't close and the position went against me? I contacted customer support, but they told me that my account manager's office was closed and they couldn't do anything.

The question is: did that tell you everything you need to know about this firm?

You basically described FOREX / trading in general. Coin goes in, hope coin comes out.

I was not given any kind of information, nothing. Just that they had a problem, and they were working on it.
you can´t trust this kind of companies that leave you hanging 30 min

account manager, that's the thing make me feel suspicious about fundednext.
with each problem you face no one can help you if you couldn't contact your account manager and you would be lucky if you get a response from him within 24hours.
feels like the account manager is separated from the company. I don't understand why do we struggle getting to contact account manager while they can simply forward our query to him.
Folks, it looks like a new fad. just imagine account manager doesn't have an email belong to the company !
you only contact him through telegram and ofcourse you wont have any history record and no evidence for following your complaint.
when you ask by email @support , they just keep saying you have to contact your account manager through telegram.

we have to be more aware of this company seems like they're doing suspicious business.

Interesting most if not all of the top of the line prop firms have told me the currency pairs that are traded are CFD

I am coming back to end my review about Ever Trade. My first split was paid and review done within 2hr time, this was actually the fastest payment I ever received. Automatically I received new account credentials and even been ask for interview so by now cannot say nothing bad about this company.

Thank you! EverTrader looks great and I have them high on my list too. The only con I can see are their relatively higher eval prices

Could you share what their commission is and if they charge it on indices?

I think they will give you a trial account if you ask on chat. It's Purple markets broker. Spreads are OK but not as good as FTMO of course
