{quote} Interactivebrokers ? I see Ctrader also in the picture …what about Metatrader ?
It will be avaiable to all connections in quantower, but support said it will come with alot of bugs and some connections have different order types
ctrader is avaiable, metatrader is not but ibkr is too

I am testing the quantower test version i will use it more to cqg to ritmic as it works without problems and if there is problems we report to quantower support
for other connections like ctrader is different order types so it will have some bugs

Keep your eye on the Apex Discord server. It’s being addressed.

When CFD Firms were having problems it was all over the various socials. That's not happening at the moment with APEX.

I'm less sure than you about that.

People keep sending me links like this Reddit one, and telling me that there's more and more of this kind of stuff on the web, and thanking me for highlighting the Apex payout problems here.

You can surely see that this stuff must be increasingly worrying to Apex's customers?
I made so many bad decisions today im glad i didnt kill my 100k funded account. Gold nearly killed me today. I scalp gold for 12 hours every day , emotionally i am very tired and cant concentrate. The problem is i dont have any hobby so i spent all day in front of my computer.

It took you 10 days to scour the web only to find a thread on Reddit (of all places ) that’s 6 months old?

Oof

I read that : (MFFU discord - notice board) **Issues at Other Firms:** We’ve noticed mass denials at firms offering 20 accounts. This model is unsustainable, as predicted many times. At MFFU, we want traders who can move to live accounts and provide the freedom to trade. No min trading days, no profit days, just TRADE. What FIRMS are they talking about ? Apex ?
Matt has little room to talk about any firm issuing denials.

Some Reddit clown says that APEX asked him for videos of him actually trading? Of course, the Reddit shill says that he/she/it/they/them/ze/zer has the emails to prove it but doesn't provide the email? Seems legit.

Classic Matt. Other firms are bad which magically makes us good. What a clown.

I think it was just a small nitpick for Apex who has denied a lot of payments these times and constantly changing the rules
Commonsense tells me that if Apex were truly becoming insolvent, then they could easily implement legitimate changes to remedy that, without needing to rely on unethical solutions that could bring about legal and other troubles for them.

As such, any empty claims by some random poster on Reddit or the like, without any shred of evidence, should be taken with a grain of salt. Any isolated claims should have you questioning what the trader was doing before anything else.

I won't comment on the agenda that some members here clearly have, because we already know their game, and they will continue to beat that dead horse even if it no longer serves anyone to do so.

Actually Apex have updated their rules to reserve the right to ask for Zoom meetings and videos of you trading. They also stipulate in their contract that any funds gained in this review period don't get added to your balance. So basically if you're unfortunate enough to have this happen to you, then you'll have to work for free, explaining each and every action you take on your trading platform while having the pressure of them scrutinising you.

And if you don't perform at a similar level, then they will assume that someone else was trading for you and you'll lose your account and the entire balance.

All of this is on their website help section, and they have a PA agreement they make you sign which has even worse stuff, including a non disclosure. I didn't sign mine as I don't want to be filmed by anyone, I trade because I have social anxiety and prefer staying in.

Yeah, that hasn't happened at all. There's a lot of CFD degen migrants that are crying because they cant yolo every trade.

Only extreme case i think of is payout denial. As people got denied for breaking the rule once. But that doesnt mean they lose account its just that payout period is lost..

Alright update time. Activated 20x50k pa today.

1. After ignoring dow for 2 days for too much volatility in asian session. Trying a long for 20 points. Entry is too perfect. If it hits done for today. SL at 5 points loss.
EDIT - TP Missed by 1point but closed with profit
2. Topstep having a rough few days 3 days back to back to back losses of 900$ thanks to gold. Thanks to risk management settings my trades auto liquated and blocked for the day when 900$ total loss happens. Still have 1700$ worth of drawdown. Will try to recover next week.

hey monty..... not so easy for me..... passed the 20 50's but took maybe 2 weeks..... my trade size is 1 micro.....

those apex 250's might take a month or more..... no rush..... can't use'em anyway..... just wanted to trade account size like you and boulder.....

if my math is correct, should have my 5 topsteps passed in next 10 days.....

i use the trailing stop on tradovate to stay out of the trailing drawdown issue.....h
