it means if you have traded 10 days (minimum). 8 day should be normal. 2 days you can open and close micro immediately

{quote} I just passed a batch in two days...yesterday trading 4 minis on S&P (very high for me), my live I trade 3 micros for comparison purposes..... figured I'd give the yolo thing a try on a couple to break up the monotony, same thing found the range, rinsed and repeated 5 times....left me with $850 to pass today, 1 mini on the dow 3 separate times, same thing first trade wasn't until 11:50
kudos tomorrow i'll try 5 contracts longs on (4 evaluation i just purchased) dow probably may start from asian session...... Loving this 30$ challenges rather 800$ on forex 200k accounts....

Exactly, you don't pay the $85 or $140 until you pass, and then you trade normal.

The payout will be denied. The total profit is just $2000 ( net profit). So the biggest day ($2000) is 100% of total profits. It should not be greater than 30%.

Traditional risk-management doesn't really apply to the prop model given the lack of upfront capital, leverage used and way the 'traders' trade.
That's why the statistics from FCA or ESMA about CFD traders losing in normal brokers should be disregarded by us.

This area is like if someone if offering me a 10K broker account charging me, let's say, 2K. How is not that a bargain ?
(2K is an example, it could be more or less depends on frequency that one passes evaluations).

So, no one should come here talking about CFDs winning rates because that's irrelevant because even a losing CFD trader can win money in props, for the simple reason that we're not paying 1 USD for each 1 USD DD in a funded account.

Giving another example is like if we have a slot machine with a +100% payout %.

I think flipping day is not defined in their T&C or FAQs but as far as I understand is a day where you just buy 1 micro and close it immediately, just to count another day. No more than 20% of those. That's just in funded accounts, not in the evaluation.

montygoldy forgot to mention but together with the consistency rules in funded account, make sure to see the cap they have for withdraws in the initial 3 months.

{quote}Well the large ESMA review which went on in 2027 (?) to limit retail leverage and offer further protections (evil governments and regulators!) looked at millions of trades and essentially came to the conclusion that everyone lost money and all leverage did was increase the rate in which that occurred. CFDs were designed to be sophisticated investment products but ended up being marketed to and used used by people who were essentially gamblers who had no idea of the risks.
Maybe they should regulate how many cigarettes you can smoke or how many shots of Tequila you can take. Afterall, people who chain smoke and get wasted drunk probably don't know about the health risks and need the government to protect themselves from their own ignorance, stupidity, and lack of discipline.

Yes. or to use a parallel category......the lottery, casinos, hell, I'm sure plenty of old ladies lose more than they should at bingo.

Yes, I'm aware of the 3 month cap on withdrawals, just missed the 20% thing for some reason. Thanks for bringing it up.

ok so I received my first payot from Swift funding today. They delayed some crypto payouts, so my payout was send day later, looks like if anyone expect payout choose rise instead. The good part is dd is balance based and after requesting withdrawal balance it's adjusted almost immediately so you can continue trading. I am expecting next payout next week will post update.
