{quote} Thanks. I never looked into TFF. I just glanced quick, I am very impressed by its site showing all paid traders account stats and their detailed trading history.. I will open an account with them next.
They had a case some time ago of a guy that had carry trade, if I'm not wrong. He checked with them upfront if he could use it and they said yet. It happen that their system had wrong swaps. Instead of eating the loss and moving on, they decided to correct past trades. Correcting past trades caused a violation of the account and the guy lost the payout and the account.
This was the case:

Our friend Cryptosurfer also suffered from problems in their systems and they said they had nothing to do with them. It was his problem:

If you're trading normal, not much lots and don't face technical issues, they may still be good. Not sure how much they are suffering with new competition. Also because they operate like a black box. Almost no communication (not sure if that's bad or good, but it's a fact).

I had/have regular payouts from them for more than an year without problem, though they have the worse payout process. On the payout day they froze your account, then they send you an email saying it is OK, you request the payout (Deel or crypto), they pay you but only the day after, end of day, they send you new credentials. So, it's basically 2 business days lost for each 14 days payout cycle.

You might be onto something (According to linkedin search), although I dont know the truth. It seems like some sort of scumbag collection considering the names in that list. Cue banks, Lambo raul.... Blake ... Its like the whos who of forex crap. I do know that the "technology" that TFT, MFFX, smart etc pretty much all the 8cap ones other than fundednext is an out of the box solution that they do not own. Fundednext started under that tech umbrella but broke out after not paying an invoice and making arguments. But fundednext are a special kind of firm, the type where avoiding it is simply not enough.

Read the same. Bangladesh registered in Dubai. Caught with fake reviews in Trust Pilot.
I was able to milk them decently, through several payouts + the profits of phase 1 and 2. They couldn't (didn't want) to find an excuse not to pay me.

Cue bank is top tier. Which one is raul lambo ?

I'm generally anti-social media but since I recently started a youtube channel I decided to do the right thing and engage with people on different platforms and pretend like I care about their future success.

I found that the prop firm space on Twitter is literally an orgy of giveaways, contests, and CEOs jerking each other off. It's kind of like a bad car wreck, I can't look away.

If they have not revised it in a timely manner and still consider him a risk, I would say the minimum to do was to provide the funded account and maybe reduce leverage and/or daily DD. And a warning that this was the last account. No point in allowing him to purchase, take the time to pass challenge (disrespect for the time wasted) and then refusing it, thinking that a refund absolve then from misconduct.
-What I mean is, maybe they did not review his account at all until now (or properly). In any case, handling it this way is terrible. If he is too much of a risk, then it would make sense not to give him an account, but they should have been on the ball so that he did not waste his time going through all of the steps again; I totally agree. They are definitely in the wrong for doing that.

-CEO of MFFX mentioned something about this in his recent call. I do not know if this is the same thing that he as referring to, but he specifically said that there are several props that are all owned by the same person (or group; I cannot remember). Blake appears to be involved with several firms, but I do not know if that is what he was referencing. He also said that there is a prop currently being operated by a 14 year-old.

{quote} Hi I'm a 1 minute scalper most of my trades last 2 or 3 minutes max. Trade size would be 1 to 5 lots as looking for a $100,000 account so not too bother about reasonable commission. I trade Indices basically Dax, Nasdaq or Dow with spreads usually fixed at 1 pip but happy up to 2 max. To be honest the most important thing to me is speed of execution and as little slippage as possible like all scalpers. If anyone knows of a prop firm using a reliable broker for scalping please let me know... All the best Clive
I use 1 min charts with FTP and MFF. I don't trade indices so can't comment on that, what you have read about 8 Cap is correct.

Spread is a non-issue, BUT slippage/latent fills is crap(like 10 to 15 x slower than MFF server speed) 225.MS for 8Cap and 13MS for MFF. I have had freezes around news/general high volatility with 8 Cap that lasted minutes. No problems at all with MFF.

I like FTP because they were the 1st to have a non-hypocritical evaluation plan which gives them credibility IMO and their support if you need it, is very good, however I could never recommend their current server trading conditions; I would imagine the indices are even worse.

{quote} e8, rebel, t4t, tff, bespoke (EW yuck) and any other copy cat that appears i will likely purchase. Prop firms have become a game for me, i dont trade seriously with them anymore as its no longer necessary for me to do so. FTMO and MFF i pay more attention to in terms of risk and such but basically I test anyone who yaps a lot in social media and any one that people talk a lot about in here. I dodged Myfundedfx because its just eightcap again. It doesnt matter what rules you change as long as its 8cap its crap, they can pay me for the slogan...
Are you trading with E8 and TFF because they are on par with MFF & FTMO or you want ot expose them as frauds?
Also, which 2 firms if you don't mind my asking.
