I agree with this statement. Many traders have ingrained a popular saying "No one can earn more than 5-10% monthly", but in reality there are many traders who earn beyond our thought.

{quote} Apex is a complete scam and has been from the start, as I’ve always said. You only need to look at who runs it, and his history in the binary options "industry," to see that. It isn’t a "futures funding company," though: it’s a forex prop-firm-scam which has added alleged futures accounts as an afterthought. I’m talking about all the genuine, long-established futures ones who open real accounts (very easily verifiable!) for their successful participants. Topstep, Tradeday, and others. It's so simple, and so obvious: if you simply use a futures...
TOP STEP doesn't open real account (or at least didn't open a couple of years ago). It was/it is a videogame like anybody else.

Does anyone have experience with Funded Engineer, I plan to join that company, Please share with me, Thanks in advance.
Still doing a challenge (blowed the previous one).
Spreads are not the tightest, commissions are not the cheapest (5$ in forex), execution is Ok though not the best around. Broker is Purple. I would say it's average, not good, not bad but it's just the challenge phase.

It seems they are trying to grow solid with risk management but who knows what's behind walls...

I still have a very old account in TFT, which I almost abandoned. It was in a deep DD so I just did a couple of reckless trades to see if I could go above water line and I did for a small amount. Surprisingly I received the payout after 2 or 3 business days. It's a low 4 figures payout but, still, it's nice to take money from Angelo and he didn't refuse it. So, apparently they are still paying some of the people. I'll try to milk the scam while I can.

Issue with TFT has always been execution, their slippage volume bands suck... if you have larger stops it's annoying but not as big of an issue. Once a workaround for deel. dropping everyone was worked out, both TFT & MFFX have been paying out... that being said, Angelo is still a slimmy con man.

Hmm…. I’m still hesitant to add/try TFT, but I’d only be achieving low 4 digit gains if successful.

That said, should I go with 8cap, thinkmarkets, or purple trading? (I trade cfd’s)

I hate to brag but I passed a 5K challenge with the 5ers. Sorry Monty I'm the real savage Of course, the dashboard shows zero days even though I traded for 3 days with the required profit per day. Support has their "tech" team looking into it. Do you know how hard it is to keep your alpha male status when you have to beg for your 5K account credentials? {image}
24 hours later and still no response from support. I guess the "tech" team isn't too concerned about some scrub wanting his 5K funded account.

Bedtime for Bonzo. I'll check in tomorrow. I'm sure you are all losing sleep over this.

I would get on chat with them now. The 5ers are usually on it when it comes to support.

How can you go to bed with so much at stake ?

This is quite disappointing. I also had a tech problem once and I could solve though chat. Support opened a ticket and tech came back pretty fast. Then back and forth emails and all was sorted out quickly.

You can even make 100% per monthly.
In props it will be difficult to get paid. In real account it's a question of time to blow up.

no idea what ALPHACAPITAL uk is doing. their customer service is total crap.

last week tried to purchase a challenge with them. unfortunately send 5 USD short( it was usdt network fee which I've no idea that have to add the amount with the bill, thought it will adjusted from my balance).

mailed several times to their support to contact with the payment gateway to solve the issue they are not doing that. ask me to solve the issue with them. where payment gateway informed that if merchant couldn't contact with them they cant re-issue new link for 5usd payment. but alpha is not doing this after sending the email conversation of payment gateway where its mentioned that merchant need to contact with them.

Alpha support is bad. It's not the worse around but is bad when something needs to be solved. I suffered quite a lot in the beginning to setup payouts and for the first payout. Also had tech troubles when I bought a second challenge and took a while to solve in live support.

TFF having to migrate all mt5 accounts to mt4, what a cock up.infrastructure problems apparently.
This BS is still going on... MT5 traders are on the dark, no updates from TFF other than... "We are migrating gradually, please be patient."

My payout date has passed and accounts were not updated... Now apparently the payout was pushed to Feb 13th. MT5 stats are not updated yet and no migration in sight.

I would advise any newcomers to be aware of these issues with TFF... It doesn't smell good if you ask me, both migration or fix should have been applied for now... I think 10 days have passed already, more than enough time for either, if they actually cared.

The worse is that TFF already showed for several times that they don't adapt to any tech problems, the trader is the one to suffer, not them.
A decent company, which TFF is not, would solve this quickly and, after that, offer some kind of compensation for the annoyance. And process the payouts immediatly.
