Here is a list of firms who in the last 2 years have had a data breach.


Myfundedfx
e8
alpha
Fundingpips
blueguardian
myflashfunding
lark
Maven
TFT (HA)
Smartfunded
SFT (HA)


As well as pretty much everyone else using FPFX.

There is also a list of accounts that is being sold where the email and password was the same for login on multiple props and is being sold as a "hack". But actually they just hacked the fact someone can be so dumb to do that.

{quote} The problem with not trading much is if they deny the payout then, in my case, I have to turn 54,500 into 59,000 to request another payout. In the meantime I'm paying the $105 subscription fee. It really is a brilliant strategy by APEX. Even if they know they are going to deny my payout it's better for them to wait 2 weeks to see if I blow up the account. That way they are off the hook for the payout and its better for public relations that they didn't have to actually deny my payout. A win win for them. No payout and no stain on their reputation....
Thats why moving forward only buy life time fees especially with new rules...Also they still have till 14th they for decision. I dont know how their review process works but I rather get denied or accept in 1-2 days than waiting for 14 days.

{quote} They denied it, which is not surprising. Not the first time a company denies a leak, either to hide it or because they are even incompetent to realize that it happened. Anyway the guys that posted it say that source is reputable (whatever reputable means in this world of hackers) and says that 2 of the 10 leaked emails are in haveibeenpwned.. https://x.com/DarkWebInformer/status...10847075709278 Edit: Besides, this guy has a good point. Leaked emails can be tested. Leak seem real. https://x.com/SheikAlgo/status/1800029403784818859...
Well, my email started showing up in a bunch of things in the past week and a half, including haveibeenpwned. But, of course, that could have been from anywhere, so that doesn't necessarily prove the source was ACG. Still, the timing makes me wonder, and the screenshot of partially revealed data looks legit.

{quote} man you rather go back to forex prop i think they will stick around 1 or 2
Forex props are dead......even the last one's standing will not survive. We already know (and accepted) we were trading with a casino. Losers paid for winners. The casinos have no more customers, the collapse started with MFF and then the MT4 debacle.
The futures are no different......EXCEPT they are offering you to trade products which are LEGAL in the US and due to it being a regulated exchange, they SHOULD NOT be able to manipulate price. However, if regulation leaves them alone, they are still a casino and will eventually run out of money.
I am 100% pro-prop when used in the correct manner. As many have stated, do not put a ring on your prop, she will cheat on you. Milk her for all she is worth and build your personal funds. There is still time in the futures arena, but the window is going to be closing.

another question--- what % weekly return do you guys trading with APEX /whatever make, I haven't signed up yet with a futures firm but make 5-7% weekly in my personal fx account; given all the stringent rules and everything, how much weekly return do you think is feasible?
If you make 5-7% weekly, save yourself the headache......keep doing what you're doing.

The ideal times are from 10am to 3-4pm est. It is common to see rallies/sell offs into the close.

Between the open 9:30-10 tends to be a lot of chop/indecision. Every day can be different so don’t expect one day to look like the previous (recency bias).
Trade with confidence, trade without fear.

NY afternoon, 2-4 pm, can be very good as well. I day trade the indices, so tight stop and I trail it in hopes of a runner. Either way, I always let the market take me out....either hit profit limit or the trail stop.

Isn't thats the point of any payout? Delay till you get frustrated. Once anything approve it takes literally 30 seconds if payouts gateway is set.
So if they deny payout you have to trade normally for 10 days but do you still have to make same amount of money?

More than the passwords, which we can change quickly (I use to have different emails and passes for each prop), what really concerns me is the access to documento photos, even if they are done by third part. Not sure how safe they are (they probably aren't).

I dont think any of them store it anymore they all use secure third parties. I could be wrong.

Alpha is coming to futures by the end of this week. We need to know from our experts in futures if this is a trustable or a scam.
