For the case you have not seen ir, Apex has a flatten tool to close all positions in case of emergency. Didn't test that.

Just glanced at the "consistency rules" for APEX-funded traders. https://support.apextraderfunding.co...istency-Rules- Now my head hurts Ironically you can gamble your face off for the evaluation. That makes sense, right?
it should be the other way around like it is with earn2trade, topstep,etc….

This is what Darrel from Apex claims ;

{quote} So, how was the process ? You closed the trades and all was automatic ? Like receiving the email saying you nailed it and asking for fee payment ? And funded accounts are created straight away, as soon as you pay the lifetime fees ?
After close of yesterday received email stating completion and follow link to sign and link pay for PA.

I wouldn't rely 100% on that. You still would want to confirm on your platform.

Time to take the APEX plunge. I can't resist a good sale. Time to learn a new skill set. {image}
Well you guys convinced me to take the plunge as well.
Bought 20 50K Apex Tradovate accounts yesterday.
Time to learn a new platform and Futures fast!
Hopefully it goes well I have been completely focused on Indices with FX for quite sometime now so maybe the transition will be smooth?

I trade every day S&P500, only at specific levels, for today:

Area 4416-4426 (probable high) for the upside
Area 4386 (light), 4367-4362 (probable low) for the downside

today added the live CNBC on my tradovate set up looking for bloomberg also.

I read this thro Fundedengineer.

This is for all of us. :

How many times you buy a challenge, and you want to pass it like rent is due tomorrow?

I get it, you want it fast…

We live in a fast-paced world so we want everything ASAP…

And that’s the problem with most traders buying challenges.

Take Arman (ArmanTradess on Twitter/X)

He bought a $500k challenge with us and it took him over six months to pass it!

Read that again: SIX MONTHS!

There was a point he didn’t had an entry for 25 days…

Talk about patience…

Most traders will force setups and FOMO then fail the challenge…

Let that be a lesson.

For some reason, traders are trying to force their phase 1 and 2 in like a day…

Sure, sometimes you might get a good streak and you finish the challenge in a few days…

Or one lucky trade that passes you the phase 1 or 2 in a day…

But that’s not common…

Patience is the key, there are no time limits anywhere now…
Intraday only.

{quote} Yep, I read that before joining them and found too discretionarily. I would normally not touch a firm with these kind of rules. I just did because I didn't find anything strange in trust pilot about that in so many reviews. Anyway, I'm a bit cautious. Let's see how it goes.

Since this thread is very futures centric, I will give a list of firms to avoid for financial reasons:

Maven
Thefundedtrader
Skilledfundedtrader
Smartproptrading
Fundingpips
e8funding
fxify

Cant show my sources on this but I have them from a few groups, but if you are playing with retail props, avoid these for a while until they sort their nonsense out.

Sorry I haven't had a chance to play with futures with you guys, I have been working on something semi-prop related thats not really prop related and its occupied my time a long with various other (positive) life things.

For MFF, probably by Friday. I expect either removal of injunction or significant amendment to it. The entire case is a massive soap opera so its hard to get a tell if you aren't in the room when things are happening. From the text documents it appears judge wants this settled and off the docket but it looks like the CFTC does not at least until after the decision to come.

{quote} Agree ninja trader makes me feel like windows 95 or Mario video game....so outdated platform. MT4 is 100000000000 times better than any futures platform.
I agree, my first impressions of Ninjatrader and Tradovate are not good.
I am researching a software bridge to use MT4 to control the futures accounts.

AHAHAH, what a fever here. I hope it's not a big colective train wreck.

BTW, I bought another 3 account yesterday, so I have 5 account in total just to get familiar with all this Rithmic and copier thing.

A quick question: I was not able to purchase 3 account all at once, I have not seen any place to enter number of accounts desired. I had to do one by one, entering details, card, etc. three times. You guys were able to buy more than 1 in just one purchase ?

{quote} Sorry, what do they want me to think Markula?
this doesn't really deserve a response but most people who claim to be futures gurus only trade metals and indices which are highly correlated to the usd. For me, what I like about futures over fx is the idiosyncratic movements of the commodities. The reason why I like agricultural commodities, oil, and nat gas is they move idiosyncratically. This way you can diversify, have multiple positions open without your account blowing up. That is only an advantage if you can predict everything though. If you can only trade indices or fx futures then it's really not much different than fx, maybe a slight disadvantage because there are no cross pairs. but to each his own whatever
