4. Everyone situation, mindset and goals are different when it comes to trading. My goal is to go big or go home thats it.
//-----

lol..... very good post monty..... yes we do.....

i have many friends some own 80,000$ bass boats, some own million dollar houses, some spend no telling how much skiing every year in colorado, some spend 10s of thousands on mexico hunting clubs, some spend no telling how much at casino's,,,, that list goes on and on..... and on.....

i don't do or have those things..... have been known to try a heavily discounted prop firm evaluation.....

whether those guys are honest, i have no clue..... fwiw, i've never not been paid by any of them..... but being paid does not enter my mind....

we spent just under 20$ a piece last week at a subway for lunch, ..... is me paying 18$ for a 250k evaluation that far out of line.....

trading single micros on a 250k account can be a fun, or is for me...... currently in the hole 128$ per account..... no stress in that....

to me, the prop firm challenge is a tool..... just a tool.....

a kinda fun tool with potential to pay back if it's used wisely....h

I clicked the link to check it for shits and giggles and it turns out that the website load speed is really poor. The information on the site is extremely lacking and missing vital details like location, ownership etc.

{quote} Hi Expo33. I have a question for you. Is there any chance to make some money on Darwinex in first moths ? Im really sick of all Prop firms. One of the biggest and oldest firms just cancelled my account and my payment was denied because of a bug on their system. They promised me a new account a week ago but it seems like they dont give a f*ck, they just want my money. Thank you for your time
It's a 3 week trading calibration phase to establish your "Darwin" index. Then you need to get your rating up to 75 to get your first seed allocation. The allocation comes at the end of that month. And remember your performance fee is only 15% so this is a long term endeavor. The goal is to get to the gold level in the first year, continue getting seed capital, and ultimately secure real investor capital. So yes you can make money in the first few months but it won't be that much. Enough to pay for your monthly fees and keep the ball rolling.

I suggest watching their YouTube playlist. It's very helpful

{quote} It's just marketing slight of hand......You are still capped for the first 3 months and the target to DD ratio on these larger accounts does not justify the small increase in cap vs. the 50K The 50K is the only way to go with Apex, clearly, which is why they are attempting to steer folks away from it. In my opinion, for those that can actually trade, Darwinex and darwinex zero will have you in a much better position in 1.5- 2years than any of these casinos. Sounds like a long time, but how many here have been battling this monster for that...

Couldn't log on to Rithmic for Apex on Thursday and Friday. Bulenox and TopStep was ok.

On a side note, looks like Alpha's going to start their futures soon. Saw some link being shared on discord.

Why can't the worst "bucket shops" just leave the futures arena alone. The futures prop firms are atleast premium bucket shops at this point I looked into the rules of Alpha. I have no doubts in my mind its made to deter the profitable traders regardless what fan bois here might says , no brainer.

But them coming to futures arena just shortens the longevity of futures props firms, as regulators drools at the thoughts of more of the worst "bucket shops" move to so called regulated sector. The hammer will just hit harder im sure due to that on all. This is why I think crypto prop firms will sadly be the best option soon enough. I truly dislike crypto trading myself nothing is the same as NQ or similar. Rough times ahead if you want to do prop firm trading for sure.

As others said, Darwinx similar is prolly best bet soon too. Even if I personally dislike it.

It may be that your TV connection to Tradovate expired. You have to re-add every 30 days. Click on Application Settings on Tradovate chart in upper right corner. Then click Add Ons. Make sure Trading View is activated.

The only time this happens is if either your tradingview sub didn't renew or you're on the free version.

No way the cowboys of CFD will let the huge pie of futures grow without trying to eat a big slice. The futures arena will get destroyed just like the CFDs.

Tech solutions are already being developed to allow any 12 years old kid to start his future prop.

-The only way that these companies survive in the Futures space is if people use them. Why anyone would ever use them is beyond me, but people surely will, unfortunately.

-If MyFundedTech is the correct answer to anything, then I seriously wonder what the question is. Didn't somebody already confirm that he was manipulating the feed by padding the spreads at his Futures firm somehow? Any firm that he helps through his tech company will likely be doing the same thing; bringing the dirty tactics and manipulation over into the Futures space.

The Futures prop space is "truely" doomed. It is only a matter of time now. This guy's greed and stupidity will ensure of it.
