Darwinex zero...ones who trade FX...i had occurance in last week that rollover spread SL me on the Darwinex zero, meanwhile same trades (same characteristics) on Pepper, Ftmo, alpha, ascendx were not executed on the rollover.

3 trades happened this week njh

Rollover spread is always been a bitch on FX..especially some GBPNZD or JPY pairs...havent tackled this one yet...what could be solution? EA which manages rollover to widen the SL and when market is back 40min somewhat after rollover it puts SL to same levels?

Good performance you there. Good progress.

The performance of my new account on calibration stage this week has been very poor, with a drawdown reaching -1.76% and many losses despite using small risk. It hasn’t reached the profit zone yet. I think there will be improvements on Monday after I review my trading system on Sunday to see what went wrong. For now, the D-Leverage has spiked to 5, whereas the target should only be 1 or 2. Maximum numbers of trades 3, whereas the target should be 1. I won’t increase the risk again like in the previous account for recovery. Hopefully, things go well this month with D-Leverage staying low.

several people have suggested a thread specially for darwin...... likely a good idea..... started one on enivid's site previously....... darwin journal..... i'm in the calibration phase...... started with 2 big losses..... it figures......h
Thank you for setting this up, I recently opened a Darwinex account. Look forward to reading more on everyone else's experiences and updating on mine (once my Darwin score exceeds its' new account 3.5 ).

No, not at all. You will always trade on the million. Your tading account is separate from your allocation(s).
Your % will be adjusted by the risk engine and then applied to your AUM. For example, if I make 20K this month on the million (2%) they will multiply by my risk factor of 1.41, bringing it to 2.82%. I will be paid 2.82% on my 30K allocation, which is $846, 15% of which is $126.90.

My 2nd Darwinex Zero account is still in Red, day 9/15 calibration, -2.28% Loss, -3.64% Drawdown. I still need a long time to reach the profit zone. D-Leverage is stable, but it spiked once to 12.48.

You will always have your same signal account. You are paid on risk engine adjusted profit on your signal account multiplied by your total allocation that month.
I'll use mine as an example, I have made 1.94% this month with an allocation of 30K= $582, 15% is $87.30.
Unless I do something stupid next week, my allocation will be 60K next month, as you keep allocation for 3 months and can trade 3 simultaneously.
If you hit the minimum allocation for 3 months and continue hitting the 75 score every month, a 2% return will make you $270, more than covers your subscription until you get to gold.
Gold is the long game here, if you can make 2% on 1 million, 2 million, 5 million......

I fortunately went the rithmic route when starting with the futures props......Quantower allows copy traing accross all props that offer it, so you can have 20 apex, 5 take profit, 5 topstep, etc, all copied together or in whatever group(s) you prefer

yeah i saw..... was watching...... be sure to keep things in perspective...... a week is such a small thing......

the person currently in 3rd place, OSC odefrutos, had 6 straight losing months...... and those were the first 6......

there is plenty of room at the top for those that approach darwin with long term view.....h

Try to observe the VaR section, maximum 84.35%, minimum 0.79%. I think after the punishment period by Darwinex, he used his chance again to overleverage. I wonder what his current risk ratio is? In Darwin's statistics, we can't see it. After a long period of not opening any trades, i.e., with 0.00 lots, suddenly he opened positions totaling up to 24.71 lots. Boom! Please check the monthly rotation stats.

Conclusion: You can still win in the long term with the YOLO method for DZero, but the costs incurred will increase. Alternatively, following the risk engine constraints that we have learned together and slowly increasing profit, doesn't necessarily mean the costs incurred will be lower.

Trader No.1 and No.3 in DZero Silver this August have a gambler's character (overleveraging). After waiting for a considerable period until their current risk ratio stabilizes (penalty period), they go YOLO. Trader No.2 fits exactly the ideal trader criteria for DZero, trading within the limits allowed by DZero.

Trader 2. Trader 1's risk ratio will definitely be reduced next month (punishment).
