{quote} Comments like this are why you are a clown and no one takes you seriously, even when you make an occasional good point. Almost every comment you post belittles everyone else in this forum, and doesn't make you look smarter or more intelligent or more correct, just more foolish. Like most fools, it is mildly entertaining to watch, but soon gets boring.

{quote} That statement is ridiculous. Prop firms forcing the newer and newer rules for only one reason, is to get to free 95% of unsophisticated traders from their money. At this point in this thread I only know 2 traders who actually make money consistently(Crypto and Pip), the rest only think, they do.
As i said my personal opinion and this stuff is only for APex rule changes not for others shady ones and after watching his schemes/scams videos what he is trying to do.
My opinion is based on my own experience not just hear n say. I have been on the other side of BS rules for so many firms.
Secondly we are not in race who is more profitable or makes more money.
Thirdly in the end its all about MONEY IN BANK.
We are not obliged here to show bank receipts but if you ask i'll do it just for motivation purposes not bragging. But i can assure you for me PERSONALLY i am already woke matter of fact since 2019. Thats why i keep things real winners/losers atleast people should know both sides of coin. My math says i am NETT PROFITABLE in terms of Prop firms expense/payouts from my previous shared payout screenshots.

Dude you're in dark hole of buy challenges n then lose without payout.
The day you accept which alot of here suggested before that will unlock your success. Coz those advices are coming from experienced guys/gals here.
Everybody knows easier to say than implement but those who do implement actually improves n move forward.

That’s WRONG. That is NOT what happened. Apex changed the rules RETROSPECTIVELY. What is wrong with these idiotic people who just won’t acknowledge proven facts that don’t suit their prejudices?!
Quoting Quickly
Apex suddenly introduced ... a requirement that in order to be paid out, you had to be able to produce on request videos of yourself trading, which had (somehow?!) been filmed BEFORE they announced that.

Guys, let me just comment here to cool things a bit.

I honestly don't give a sh*t if people here make money or not, not even how they trade.

I only care about their experiences in prop firms, which allow me to make choices with the best first hand information that we get here.

Every experience here, good or bad, or recent news/incidents about props enrich the topic and everybody that comes here every day (at least those without hidden agendas). That was the main objective of Mastermind when he created this excelent topic.

This is a game. Imagine a casino. Every casino have a house edge. The problem is that when the edge goes too high then the people will stop coming. This is the case. They got gone too greedy. They crossed a border after no one can be sure if he will be paid.

Only if they allow it and till when? Contract gives them permission to do whatever they want. But wait, you can't even read it if you haven't copied it, because they even not provide you with your own pdf copy.I am sure that there is a clause which prohibit frequent lot change too.

He chats live to the crooks, telling them he’s from a forum, and says “Are you crooks?” And then, when they say “no,” he posts their answer here as “proof, from the source”!!!

They really are shameless.

Requesting first payout from APEX tomorrow. Guaranteed I broke a few rules. Let's see what happens.

I took a video of myself trading with Karl and Quickly jerking each other off in the background just so they know that I hang out with other professional traders.

These two (presumably its two, but that type identically) clowns came in here and turned the place into a sewer. For a long time people disagree with me and its fine, we had discourse an the thread provided significant value.

Now the thread is for the most part dead because no matter what happens, two guys who basically feed themselves on their own methane come in and piss on the party.

APEX are having problems, it is in multiple places and they are changing rules and such. But to stick your fucking nose up at everyone who doesn't agree with you is not on. Quickly and Karl, seriously get a personality you don't have friends here go play with your friends, or AI girlfriends or whatever. But take the hint.

As such I think my contribution to this thread from now on will be minimal if anything. Perhaps mastermind wants to do something about it perhaps not but it cannot carry on with this nonsense. Its like the kid not invited to the party shows up at the party and tries to make out with every girl without asking permission first.

This happens because Mastermind hasn't been around since Mar 9 (last online visit).
We have to respect that, as everybody has their own personal life, but it's indeed a pity because if he was still active these two would have been bashed to the quarantine list long time ago.

Your answer shows that their objetive is more or less accomplished with this lack of moderation (destruction of the thread). This was one of the last places where BS from prop people and affiliates were not tolerated and they were either smashed and giving up very quick or being put on probation list by Mastermind.

-From what I can see, you and Quickly continue to make claims that are based on very isolated, random (and baseless) comments throughout the web, by cherry-picking the very few negative comments that reside in an sea of positive and/or neutral comments, without providing any credible evidence to back up your statements.

As with all things, I approach this objectively. I have contacted the company directly and have provided their response here, which contradicts your flimsy claim, and which Apex surely understands can be used against them, should they actually attempt to do what you are claiming, after the fact.

Yet, you somehow believe that this is naive and beyond ridiculous? I suspect that most people here do not really enjoy seeing you and Quickly constantly belittling and condescending others. Now we have to deal with you making false and/or flimsy claims and then acting as if everyone is stupid for asking reasonable questions and/or challenging your views.

If you contact crooks and say “I’m contacting you from the forum where you’re being discussed and where loads of your customers are reading about you - are you crooks?” and they say “No,” then you haven’t learned anything at all. Did you really expect them to say “Yes”?!

Of course it’s beyond ridiculous. Anyone can see that. And it's right to say so.

Even Takisd admits openly that Apex are clearly having problems.

{quote} I agree. I enter all of my "positions" in a series of pre-determined trades. I already have my risk set though.....so if I am risking 2%, I may have 5 trades risking 0.4% each......In other words, I am not precise enough on my entries, but I have a "range" of where they should be. The APEX rule is not designed for folks like me, the rule is for folks that have a losing trade and just start blindly adding hoping for it to recover. Unfortunately, I will be impacted, but the workaround is truly right in front of our faces.......if you are trading...
Good post.Contrary to what some think or say here Im quite certain these prop firms knows why they ban certain behavior since they know the method you are using is extremely profitable. But it can also fall under the "adding to loses" oh so bad. While in reality that is common as I understand for experienced traders to have s risk setup like that to minimize the risks in reality. So it is kind of ironic how rules are setup which says its too high risk. While in reality prevents the best risk management system ive ever tried myself.

Apex I never liked them since they started their panic discounts back in the day. But as trader whatever pays, pays. Shame they reached their peak now. To prohibit successful trading strategies and hide it under another name is just scum and coward tactics to a new level.Almost at MFF levels before they went down with their marketing tactics.
