-Maybe the clock starts once you are 'approved' or stops if an 'investigation' is required. Anyone interested in this firm should seek clarification, for sure. Cannot trust these firms with much.

{quote} The point is you most proably will have to work until you die too, once the state starts to take money from the huge pension funds to finance debt. So nobody is a winner in this, not even the old and rich. Basel 3 and other agreements makes any savers deposits property of the bank, and no Volcker rule means that banks can freely invest and speculate with your money. The difference from your generation is that you could actually afford having kids. The generation before that could support a housewife and 6 children on one salary. Now in Austin...
I thought stats showed that these authorities/regulations stopped a lot of people losing their benefit and employment cheques via gambling on the stock market. That's why, in many cases, Prop firms are so popular with those with little or no income because these people can gamble their state benefits on stocks/forex etc.

I checked their offer : 200% refund + 15% of profits from challenge phase + now $1000 if no payment after 24H...

Looks really too good to be true. They really don't pay ?

I wrote about them yesterday:
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...7#post14660217

They paid me when I worked with them but I don't trust them a little bit because of the reasons I stated.
(the bonus from challenge phase is pai only after you get some % of accumulated profits in funded, 5% if I remember well - it's not automatic in first payout)

If you only have small payouts like 1K, 2K, etc. maybe you will go under their radar. I had to do an interview (not social media) when I was to receive the bonus from challenges. Only company that did this to me.

-Speaking about trust and integrity, some firms may also go back on their word and change their policies at the drop of a hat (oftentimes, without even updating their customer base). Traders With Edge did this.

Maybe some will honor the terms if you are already engaged, but maybe not. The risk is always there. Best you can do is have things in writing (email proof) so that you have a leg to stand on if they try to pull the rug out from under you.

You're right. I always try to print a pdf of the T&C I sign off and also a print screen of the code used when purchasing with a promotion, just in case.
Probably is useless for a shady company but anyway I will know, without doubt, if I'm right in claiming or not.

I remember when FTUK changed unilaterally the 6% static stop to 6% trailing so some guy and this was not in the conditions.

-I like to think that by having some form of proof, you are afforded more leverage, even if you never have any real intentions on formally acting on that leverage in any legal capacity. And at the very least, you can blast them online and expose them to the masses.

I have one active 100K evaluation with Apex. What happens if I buy a couple more 100K evaluations? Do I just get separate login credentials for each new account?

Now all she can afford is an iPhone 15, designer clothes, expensive makeup, a nice car, Starbucks 8 days a week, and dinner out every other night. But hey why work if you can live with your parents for free?

Sorry cupcake. You're selfish and lazy just as advertised.

Login is the same in Apex dashboard. you probably have an account 123456-1
Then they will issue
123456-2
123456-3
123456-4
123456-5
...

In Rythmic I see one line for each of these accounts. So login is the same for all accounts. I don't know in other platforms.

I bought a couple of 50K accounts in Apex and was able to blow them all testing the platform, the copier and couple of things more (some functionalities were not working like I thought, upss ).

But I think now I'm finally comfortable with Rithmic and ready to go for real stuff. I think I'll go and grab a dozen accounts using the 90% BF promo.

The only bad thing is to have to do a dozen purchases. Why the hell don't they allow to purchase more then one account in each purchase. Repeating the same a dozen times it's quite tiring.

Do I have to cancel the monthly subscription of these blown accounts or they just vanished when they terminate ?

They will reset. You must cancel. Only benefit to reset, is if account is negative or blown, you start at initial balance and fee is 80% off. Only makes sense if the current offer is less than 80% off.

One needs to make sure it is blown if it is not than you will pay monthly subscription without reset. Also one needs to keep 2-3 business days in buffer to avoid getting charge for new monthly renewal fees. So best approach would be complete challenge in 17 business days or blow it.

But if blown will they really cancel automatically and not charging the monthly fee ? Or we need to cancel it in the dashboard ?

Thinking deeper about this, I think the best is probably to use a virtual card from Revolut or Wise, just for Apex, that we can freeze. This way we never have problems of forgetting or whatever because the card will be frozen, except for purchases. (or monthly fees that we want to pay).

Nope it is ok to blow accounts . They love it. Your subscription is not cancelled until you cancel manually from dashboard or you cancel credit card.
Only issue if you dont breach your account. Lets say you are going steadily and month end you are at negative -2K on 50K account with allowed 2.5K drawdown. Your account will not get reset. You will pay fees with no reset. Also if you pass on last day of the billing cycle or one day before. You will still get charge for monthly fees. So best approach would be budget for 15 trading days and YOLO for remaining.
