{quote} When am I getting my delayed payout from Funded Peaks? When do you pay the rest of the traders at Funded Peaks? And in case the answer to any of the questions above is "never" - when do you announce Funded Peaks is a failed firm and that you keep it running just to get some challenge fees? // just out of curiosity, at the beginning I had the impression that you will be able to make it work - how is it possible that you messed up? - it should have been easy to make it work
It depends. When you get no payout you get a reason or mail with a breach or something like that. That you need to repeat trading on funded account to try it on another payout cycle. In any other case it can take long, very long. Up to 3 or 4 months I heard until you get your requested payout. How long did you wait ? How much is your payout ? Because the higher the more problems you can expect to get it. You know why, because it just an ordinary Ponzi game like on most other prop firms.

{quote} Only on their own platform so far. They also treat max number of contracts as equal between minis and micros instead of 10:1, also unless using their own platform. I think they are encouraging people to use their own platform instead of NinjaTrader, Quantower, etc. Maybe it saves them money on the back end.
In my opinion Topstep's long history in the prop space + fast payments + 5 accounts + EOD trail + no daily limit would easily make them #1 amongst the futures firms, but as you mentioned it's topstepx only. As well regarded as their proprietary platform seems to be with traders... I'm settled in with Rithmic+Quantower like I was with Metatrader... I'm not using another separate platform just for them.

With micros, 10 accounts & now no DL only available with topstepx... they are very obviously trying to nudge and push traders into using their own platform.... just like Apex is very obviously trying to nudge and push traders to their harder to pass 150K/250K/300K accounts.

Unless one loves topstepx but for ninja or quantower it sucks as 2 mini is equal to 2 micro on scaling plan. No deals available plus Daily Loss limit.

Their best account size for non topstepx accounts is the 100K with 10 contracts so you can seamlessly transition risk management wise from 1-10 micros into 1-10 minis, but it's also much harder to pass than 50K.

I got my 3 Darwin Index this morning

#1) I will definitely keep this one. The risk adjuetment is at 0.44 which is more than enough for me. This will be strictly for trading UJ. Max trade at 2 lots will be more than enough leverage to attain my monthly goals. Also, at 2 lots max, as my previous experiment verified, I'll be up to 0.7 ish in a couple of montha=s anyways. So absolutely NO issues/concerns about blackbox/VaR/Dleverage.

The only question I have is will I get my allocation at the beginning of September? I specifically started these calibrations in the first week of the month with the goal of finishing with a 75 rating towards the end of the month in hopes of saving on monthly fees. The first time I did DZero I finished the calibration phase with a 75 rating during the first week of a new month and had to dink around for the rest of the month before getting the allocation.

#2) Will keep this one also and trade anything but UJ. Only need about 1% more gain to get rating to 75. Risk adjustment is at 0.33. Again, no problem. 2 lots GBP/USD gives me 0.66 lots. 20 pips gives me $132. 20 days gives me 2.6% for the month. Perfect knowing the risk adjustment will go higher in the future.

#3) Will cancel this one. Would need 3% more for allocation. Easily doable with risk adjustment at 0.42 but I don't want to deal with 3 accounts

Overall, mission accomplished. I got exactly what I wanted. Now it's time to tighten up my game. The future looks bright

At least if some one ask specific questions or concerns one can answer...if people are lazy enough to change diaper not sure how to help them. GO AND ASK MOMMA

Just search for the word recommend or the name of the firm you're interested in.

A few names will pop up regularly but I'm sure not everyone here has had positive experience with all the firms even in the recommended list. You'll need to make the call.
