{quote} It will show on the website that you've finished the calibration phase and your Darwin Index will be created on the following Monday. All this info is in their videos. https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_con...M5MTE3LDI4NjY2
Yeah, I read and seen that Darwin will be created on a Monday after 15 days calbration stage.

But not clear, based on what Index, darwin will be created.

Or

For all traders after 15 days calibration, darwin will be created ?

In the video, he does not say about any criteria.

The criteria for crearting Darwin ?

I'm not sure what you are asking.

But let's say you finished the calibration phase and you increased the 100K account up to 102K. And let's assume that you traded perfectly within the VaR parameters so that your risk was neither reduced nor increased so that your risk factor was still exactly as it started at 1.0.

Then your Darwin Index would set at 102. Just like a stock quote.

Not sure if that answers your question but if it doesn't I'm going to smash myself over the head with brick

The index after calibration is your current profit or loss position. Everything starts from 100 since the calibration phase. So 100 +/- your alltime returns.

This is an example of trader WBMD: https://www.darwinexzero.com/darwin/WBMD/performance, the latest trader ranked #825 out of 7267 Silver traders who received a 35K allocation. Currently, for Silver traders, only 11.35% have received funding allocation from Darwin.

This is pure experience trades coz i have seen this DOW f**kery so many times.... {image}
How tight are your stops usually?

I’ve noticed 10 - 20 points tend to be too tight.

Nothing worst than getting stopped out and then watching the trade go in the direction you anticipated while sitting on the sidelines.

The credibility of ALL online reviews is questionable. Trustpilot is one of the most untrustworthy review platforms there is. Some are less bad in my opinion, such as Google Reviews, but in general you should NOT base your decision on any of these platforms. Always form your own opinion. This topic is no exception. There are many different opinions on some of the same things and the claims people make here are often unsubstantiated by any facts. Hard to see through.

Research indicates that 30-40% of online reviews are not written by real customers but by individuals hired to create positive or negative feedback, affecting perceptions and choices

It depends. I myself have been doing affiliate marketing for many years. From the side as a publisher and as an advertiser. Deducing trustworthiness from this is also difficult. For many, this is a legitimate way to generate income and does not necessarily mean that they are scammers. Where you should be careful are companies that are flooded with discount codes and affiliate links, especially if this happens predominantly via social media (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) in the form of paid advertisements and less on an organic level and you don't notice anything about it other websites that are reasonably reputable (even if they don't scrutinize each of their partners in detail).

So in general you can say it's really difficult.

10-15 points is all you need … remember your stop should be below/above the range so try to enter close to the top/bottom of the range….

I didn't have a payout from 5ers for a while. I go one last week. All good, we can go back to trading as soon as we request, and money hit Rise in just a few hours.

However there's something I never noticed in past payouts, not sure if it's new or not.

They deduct the payout from the balance and this accounts for the daily limit.

For example: if I have 104K then I have a daily max at 98.800 (5%).

If I withdraw 4K, the balance resets to 100K but the daily max is kept at 98.800. So in reality I just have 1.2% max daily that day. I never noticed that (if this existed in the past).
I don't know what happens if we have for example 106K. The daily max would be 100.700. If we withdraw 6K the balance would be 100K, which is below the daily max.

Just be alert for with this detail if you have any payout from 5ers.

Btw, they now charge 2% for most withdraws.

Yes, absolutely. We just have to be careful on the payout day.

i have been investigating the rise issues during my weekend coffee and it seems that rise are now policing the outflow of the monies to third parties. Basically they are making sure multiple users are not sending to same bank or wallet after someone on twitter highlighted that there is money laundering from group trading happening if it is true and i am correct i support rise on this but they need to public state it

There was a guy that did a good work detecting what he suspects it's a group hedging organized. In Rise it's easier to trace.
