From my personal experience Alpha and FXIFY are still paying. In Funded Next I'm about to receive another payout so let's see.
I have not been reading about denied payouts in E8 but I didn't have any recently.

Apparently a two-phase program so there will be a catch somewhere as the mechanics clearly don't work.

Unless Blake is hoping to fund it from his lawsuit against TFT.

135 $ MONTHLY FEES FOR DATA (ridiculous)

That’s the CME fee: it doesn’t go to the prop firm. If you’re trading “someone else’s money” (which you are, obviously, with a genuinely funded account rather than with an imitation one), you’re a professional trader, according to CME, so you have to pay for exchange data-feed. That’s the same everywhere.

(Now call me a “shill for CME”, lol - everything else I try to explain here, I get called a “shill” for something/someone, usually for conflicting things, too).

Last month my payout request was also flagged by alpha capital because they wanted me to redo KYC. You can ask live chat the reason if they don't process your payout in 2 days.

One problem is, that the prop firms gave people unlimitted time to pass challenges. That must have lead to less cash.

Next problem is that some people are to clever in their trading and require large cash payouts. If they could set a roof on the possible payout per invoice - like 5K, then the prop industri could survive.
MetaTrader 4 - so many advantages.

I do think the next restriction that will be adopted by many forex props is payout cap per invoice.

Hi all, I'm currently funded with Trueforexfunds and Blueguardian and was funded with Fundedengineer

TFF 400K
My payout request is in review for 8 business days already. They owe me 6K

BG 400K
No problems so far, payouts during 1-2 business days

FE
I was funded with them since January so they converted my accounts to Phase 1. There was also an option of preserving accounts but with 1% profit per month cap and with condition that all pending payouts will be denied and they owe me 12K

Does anyone have experience with Fundedpeaks or Realfundstrader? Any payout problems with them?

I believe so, too. Basically something like futures. You can withdraw up to X in the first 3 months.
They know that after 3 months Y% of the funded accounts are gone.

And to prevent that I do 50K in the first day and then wait 3 months to withdraw it they will oblige us to trade minimum X days per payout cycle, no more than Z% days with 0.01 lots and Y% of the profit can't be done in one single day.

The wheel is invented in futures, specially Apex. They just have to copy it.

I got quite a lesson on whats going on with most prop firms right now and why their payout ratios became so bad. Someone from one of the groups abusing props decided they trusted my alias enough to fill me in entirely. I will automate and test. If it works - there is no hope for props, payout cap or not .
Is it reverse trading? I wonder what the scale of the problem is. Do you know approximately how many such groups there are? And how many members each group has on average?

5%ers still good. I've been paid within the past 3 weeks (after migration) and have yet to see any issues anywhere with them.

You are exactly right, Capa. The futures firms work like well oiled machines because of everything you mention above. No reason it cannot be duplicated in forex. If they do it exactly the same with mega discounted evals and then pay for "stage 2", the build the buffer stage, they may actually become more profitable. More people will purchase $30 evals, you are still charged for the "live" account and must build a buffer before payout. Obviously, not as trader friendly, but the trade-off would be not worrying about getting paid.

I do not agree with the replication of the futures model. It doesn't resolve the underlying problem it just prolongs it.

That being said - this rinse of trash is healthy. It will spread to futures soon as the race to the bottom there heats up but thats for season 2 of the episode.

On the contrary. It led to more income for them. That was why they (rightly) did it.

I agree with the rinse of trash. I was discouraging using 95% of these firms long before it became a problem.
Can you elaborate on the futures model not resolving, but prolonging the problem.

You were. So was I. (The difference was that I was for ever wrongly accused of being a shill for 5 or 6 different things - and even sometimes of having multiple memberships here! - because of that.)
