hmmmmm I posted that I'm getting suspicious vibes right after you posted this the 1st time yesterday and you immediately deleted the post in response. You're a new member and you only seem to be posting about Apex, are you affiliated with the prop firm?

I have a bit of interest in Apex ONLY w/ >=80% off deep discount sale, but here are all the issues...

30% best day consistency rule
no micro lots on funded to fulfill min trade days
>5% profit target to withdraw
intraday equity trailing to breakeven (no more skin in the game)
it's not required but realistically you have to leave profit as drawdown buffer to avoid blowing account
500 min withdrawal
2000 max withdrawal 2x 1st 3 payment months

Hi CableJ,

I can assure you I am not affiliated to any prop firm. I haven't deleted any posts, FF did. Perhaps your suspicious comment got them thinking. Yes I am new to FF, my background is trading futures, and I am a full time trader. I thought I would look into this CFD prop space and I joined this forum. Someone made some positive comments about Apex and I agreed they are a good firm.

{quote} I don't like this: {quote} Too subjective rules to allow payment denial. - First of all, it is obvious that we have to change strategy, depending if the market is trading or in a range. - Second, morning open is a strategy it self. Same for breakouts. I use opening breakouts which means sometimes I trade quickly after the open, sometimes only at lunch time and sometimes don't trade at all. - And, finally, I don't want to have to explain my strategy to anyone.
Neither do I. As much as I agree with the meaning of the statement I don't believe anyone in the industry is ever able to assess unfailingly whether I use a predefined strategy (or multiple strategies) which may not work right now but is profitable overall in the long run, or whether I just hope for the best.

I have experienced so many "experts" assessing my trading style with the sole intention to find an excuse for not paying out my earned profit that I already became allergic to any kind of statements like this. Whenever I come across it I'm putting the firm on my own blacklist right away.

So, now that you're dealing with the finance jet set, I guess this was your last message. It was a pleasure.

I had the second payout from 5ers (also 4 figures). For the first payout I had to sort out some problems so I could not access them properly.
This time it was smooth and took 1 day and 2 hours to receive it in Deel. As I said before, in 5ers they deduct immediately the amount from the account and we can go on trading without downtime.

I see I'm not the only one very cynically when dealing with prop firms. Starting from not believing that "we earn when you earn" or "we're here to help you succeed".

I think it's too many years dealing with too many props.

feel sure everyone in the entire world knows this but me......

with thinkmarkets metatrader's default symbol list is the standard..... you must activate and choose pairs using the forex x folder..... similar to the i folder 8cap.....

there is a major difference...... if having a usdjpy chart up, when you click new order to sell, it sells by default the uk100..... not seeing the order placed, you might click sell again..... and again.....

the good news is, it only took me 7 clicks before i figure it out..... and the uk100 was falling....h

I was about to sign with them, problem is, they have 2 min news rule, and I use tps a lot (no sls), from my understanding if during news tps are hit, they will cancel your account.

Does someone struggle with this type of rule? or everyone here are short term scalpers that easily avoid news and never have positions opened during events?

do 5ers gives discounts from time to time like 20%+ discounts or they are like MFF who rarely announce promotions.
