{quote} Takisd, by reading your posts, I can tell you don't like MFFX and their CEO. I can understand, he is in 20s ( 26 years old if I remember) , maybe that generation has some kind attitude that we may not like . Have you tried their platform though? If you go through the process from taking challenge to getting final payment, it may change your mind.
I find myself in a pickle where there are so many options I prefer not to give money to an obnoxious twitter guy. I am mostly satisfied with most of the bigger names other than TFTP. Butttttttt i already have too much 8cap exposure.

If customer service is nice thats great, but they still use 8cap and thinkmarkets. Both companies i have had personal involvement with, both can slide down a barge pole butthole first.

Update from the guy with the Blue Guardian case: Ok little update, @blueguardiansean has cleared everything up and did the checking. They account was reinstated The tech team told me it was a technical issue with my phone data thats showing it up as multiple ip addresses --- Then the CEO said this: Glad it was solved, but its not like we made the issue up, having an account that logged into with 85 different ip addresses will always flag on any prop firms system, this was the first case of us seeing this. I'm not sure if they really checked anything...
I tried them and I'm funded in this moment, I have soon a payout, we'll see. But I don't like what I'm reading. It seems that an other guy had had the same issue...by the way, the Telegram group can sometimes save some injustices, happy for the first guy.

I want to see this:
Total Drawdown will be changed to 10% by default

They had 12% DD (regular swing) so if they keep the actual price and charge an extra for these +2% it will be some sort of "hidden" price increase in their challenges.

They don't mention anything, as well, about the retarded process of activating the funded accounts only on Sundays and Wednesday night. Like if something preventing them from activating accounts in the remaining days.

Good that they eliminated as well the stupid thing of waiting 25 hours for the phase 2 credentials.

All this is/was clearly intentional and they counted with it in their business metrics. The same with that old fashioned payout system. We can't trade while they are processing payouts. So they gain 1 or 2 days in each payout cycle.

That means Rapid Challenge have now a 10% DD ? (against 8 before) If yes, MFFX will have to react very quickly because there have exactly the same product with 8% DD !

Does not sound like a good excuse, phones do not invent IP addresses.
It is absolutely normal to have a different IP address when connecting by mobile after the lease expires, sometimes just 1 hour (unless the mobile is at home, using the home network).
It is even more normal all IPs to show as belonging to the same subnetwork, as is the case here 183.171.xxx.xxx.

I have read in that discord channel more issues with this firm related to IP addresses.

-I am all for thinking outside of the box and providing customizable options to suit people's needs. But charging traders to be able to use a trade copier or EA is just stupid. What kind of financial burden does that create for them if traders will do that? Completely absurd.

Unlimited time is a disaster waiting to happen. Imagine needing unlimited time to pass a college exam... amazing. I think im going to yolo my prop accounts now and anything i make will just put in my trading accounts and move on.

When i worked at a real prop, it took 12 months unpaid on the sim to get the nod to go live and even then your limits were so tight you couldnt make a living. 4-5 months after that you might get enough size to upgrade from ketchup to pasta sauce for your spag.

Now we have these marketing companies creating fairytales (after being caught purposely blowing people out) and people are saying "its about time".

Its as though people think they are entitled to hundreds of thousands of dollars or some shit.

So, looks like a simple exchange........ for unlimited time they are lowering daily and max DD. They will then charge extra to purchase the DD.
It is just tricky marketing.......why not just charge to have unlimited time?
That is the outcome if you purchase one of these with unlimited time and then buy back your DD.
All of my funding with TFTP is on the royal account. I am not looking for any additional funding with them. I am starting to see higher spreads now. Once again, all trickery, what is the point of lower commission when you increase the spread?

The irony of it all......been almost 2 years ago I was stating MFF and FTMO, all you need, just max these 2.
I was told I had a hidden agenda, that I was a secret shrill for these 2 companies.
Now many firms have come and gone, some outright scams are still operating and the other 2 decent ones are becoming not so decent.
Alot of time and energy spent in that time by a lot of folks to arrive at the same outcome I presented 2 years ago.

The difficult in this industry is to guess who will be the long term survivals. MFF was relatively new and turned out in a mess when Funding Talent collapsed in Nov 2021. There were several props at that time (TPT, Trading Capital, TCF, TFT) but they were the ones to thrive to the top (TFT still around but full of sh*).

From all the props now (maybe except FTMO and MFF) can anyone say who will be here, still paying, two years from now ?

Thank you for the correction.

TFT have probably the worst forex trading conditions (spread and fees) and they had a lot of slippages issues (widely sanctioned on Truspilot this month)
And now they reduce their DD (daily and max) which was however one of their only quality. It is very surprising. Did they really think about what they were doing ?

TFF had worsr slippage...38 pips once which made me to violate.

Since then stopped with them.

MFF, FTMO...Go with them .
