Update time on apex losing day after a while 700bucks on 20 accounts… now i am not trading on 15 accounts as there are 2000 available for withdraw. I am gonna withdraw all of it and leave nothing behind. Just saw a youtube video and it changed my mind. Also purchased 20 more evaluations so strategy is get 20 account with monthly activation fee and get 2k out of it. Keep 20passed account for backup. I’ll be risking 4 contracts per trade.
New Evals up 2k nearly 1k away. First 20 accounts took 100 evals and next 20 accounts in 1 go pretty sure. Thats how i learn something by trial n error. Once i know what works for me then its piece of cake clearing challenges.

I really lose my temper when someone needs to contact CEO or a senior staff or try to have someone known to be vocal about our problem.
It means that the normal customer service is total crap and internal processes are non existent or inefficient.

Reminds me the thing of having to cry FXIFY support for so many payouts.

I agree with you. I had to contact him on my second payout because I had not heard anything, but sometimes you must do what you must to get what is due. My second payout problem was due to the trade locker switch or at least that is what I was told. I'm looking forward to payout number 3 on Friday did pretty good this weekend on Bitcoin.

Not that I'm aware of. As long as you don't go over the 2% per trade and no martingale you should be fine. Martingale is really the only other rule other than 2%. You can even trade news how you like as long as it is not your only trading approach. I've taken trades right after release and had no problems.

scratch that - "It's not possible to transfer your current Funded accounts from Dxtrade to CTrader. The accounts trading on DXtrade will remain on DXtrade"

bunch of B.S. of course.

Final Update secured 20 more accounts on apex in one go.

FOr funded accounts a bit BS day 700$ bucks down on all accounts for the ones above threshold which are 15 still have 2700$ average in them so not trading at all will flip micro's for 2 days to get the payout. The other new 5 funded accounts lost 1900$ worth of drawdown. Missed my tp's by 1 point and reversing causing double damage.

Right now i need a big payout to fund my future endeavors like window trading setup and more challenges. Also to cover the investment made in apex (6600$).

So plan is to activate these backup accounts when i lose above coz i know once i pull the safety net i'll yolo n lose them.

PS. i could have done this after losing the accounts. Its just nothing to do and there were good setups. As fundingtraders still in review can't trade, ftmo i dont know what these guys doing still in review and apex funded incurred losses before nyopen so pretty much nothing to do.

other future firms challenges are in backlog until i get the windows machine and get quantower in them. keeping only apex in tradovate easier to manage. So many platforms to work with tradovate, mt4, mt5, tradelocker and in future quantower

Whats the deal with back up accounts then? You need to activate before rebill date other wise you pay eval fee again?

How do I hit up Rob please? Being stonewalled by FXIFY "customer service". They deny having received crypto payment for a prop account despite having sent them receipt and confirmation of payment.

-You just keep paying the evaluation fee until you are ready to activate them. You do not want to activate them until you have available slots open, since having more than 20 PA accounts is prohibited.

{quote} Yeah but unfortunately RM often goes out the window in the heat of battle with high leverage at your fingertips right? Getting someone else or something else (an EA) to trade for you is probably the right way to go. A lot of people say that they've managed to control their emotions until they're hit by one or more unexpected or unnecessary losses. The human factor is hard to beat
Usually 1 : 30 leverage can limit risk exposures.
And asking someone else to trade for you is not the answer to limit exposure.

I have seen in the past, especially with prop firm, wherin loss limits are specified. limit risk per trade and accept loss if some percentage exceeds in a day.

May be 2 to 3 % in a day can be loss limit per day
Intraday only.

Anyone else always getting notices of "significant delays while getting historical data" for NQ feeds on Apex Rithmic accounts?

If I switch to another symbol for a while and switch back, I notice that NQ isn't getting updated (i.e. missing the data in the interval I switched over).

Maybe I need a VPS somewhere.
