Wrong thread

Signed up with myfundedfutures. Start up account. 50k.

For the first time.

Have been trading on demo for sometime and now feel ok

Thanks TRANdy for deleting your post right after NVIDIA beat earnings and revenue estimates. It's kind of like claiming you have 10 inches, then putting on a speedo, and everyone can see there's only 3 inches. Not the smartest move

And thanks for posting a video of a guy who posts a clip of another guy talking about stuff. Maybe you can come up with your own stuff.

FYI, based on my cumulative return and max DD, next month I need 0.1% to score a 75, that will be three staright months and 90K AUM. I only need 3% to get 60K, which will give me 120K.
I only bring this up to demonstrate how small and steady is rewarded at Darwinex.
2.5% per month with 1 mil AUM makes you 50K/yr, 2 mil obviously makes you 100K.
Nothing earth shattering, but in addition to other trading activities, pretty significant.

DZERO UPDATE

Ok, so we cancelled our 3rd account and kept the first two. The first one was already well over the 75 rating but the second one needed 1% more profit to make it to the 75 threshold. No problem except our risk adjustment is at 0.33 so that means a $3000 gain was needed to get that extra 1%. Needless to say I crushed it this week (insert applause and pat on the back here)

So now the question becomes will I get the allocation at the beginning of September? Last time around I finished the calibration phase on the 3rd day of a new month already at the 75 rating and so I had to trade micro lots for the rest of the month to get the allocation at the start of the next month (of course I went insane and blew up the account). Anyways, this time I thought it best to start the new accounts during the first week of a new month with the intention of finishing the calibration phase and being at 75 before the end of the month. Mission accomplished. Now we kick back and see what happens.

What the fck is this of Apex had started asking videos ? A guy in comments says he was asked for 2 trading days video.

No idea what was this about

Looks like criminals are everywhere at a prop firm.

WHats the issue in providing a video???? I dont get it... If you trade fair n square you won't being asked to do so.... I mean just screen record the video when trading like pressing a button.... I do atleast 10-50 trades a day most of times never been asked for a video.I also add to losers one time and add to winners and do everything which is specified in the PA contract... Most of the times their system detects the fishy trading style thats why they ask. Atleast they are giving a chance to prove yourself not like forex prop firms..

A new futures prop popping up: https://www.phidiaspropfirm.com/en

I don't have any details, just saw that in twitter. I hope that's just as simple as recording us clicking the mouse because other than that it would be too much.

Screen recording or youtube live stream does not do the work. They want to see your face, hands, explanations, etc.

Where does that woman get her data of those who payout and proof of it? Going by this forum alone and NexusFi her list makes no sense at all. Topstep and Apex still seems to be no1. Even I was convinced lately that Apex is still all right, which says alot. Going back 6 months in her videos you can see how she got some kinda emotional beef with Apex.
The c++ developer trader at NexusFi forum did get paid out eventually after making proper videos of proof to Apex. He did scalping with few seconds interval which probably was the reason their system got triggered. Thus they wanted the videos.
The videos which got approved were when they could see the person doing the trading as fx rookie said. The body needs to be shown and with the screen same time.

Also the most transparent prop firm payout rankings atm can be found from websites scanning blockchain such as payoutjunction.com.

Takisd you got any insights from forex props that implemented 30% max profit day ? I mean, if they got better in financials ?

I'm thinking that this may keep big payout in the loop because if someone has like 10 lots in EURUSD and after news had the "bad luck" of moving like 0.3%, now he is with a day of $3.000 profit. And if he wants to receive that money he will need to make $10.000 total and never with more than $3.000 in a day.


It's also a way of limiting people from making more money in a day, forcing them to stop, because if that's their best day then they know they will need to achieve 3.33x that amount to receive it.

Probably it's even good if people trade news heavily and get a big profit because from then they will need to be lucky another 2 times and some changes.

It is starting to get totally ridiculous. Where they have the time to watch and evaluate those videos ? I mean it cannot be automated from APEX side to analyze this.
Also how they can deny any made video ? I mean if a video is mandatory now, and every video is okay, it is nonsense. It only makes sense when they decline a lot.

This Prop Firm Requires Recording Your Trades for 2 Days. Otherwise, You Won't Get Paid
https://www.financemagnates.com/fore...wont-get-paid/

1. Apex Trader Funding claims it wants to expedite the payout process
2. Traders are outraged, believing the company is demanding too much private information

Apex Trader Funding, a prop trading firm that has allegedly been struggling with timely payouts to its clients in recent months, has introduced new solutions aimed at streamlining and accelerating the entire process.
However, voices have emerged suggesting that the prop firm has begun requiring significant effort from clients, potentially infringing on the privacy of their strategies and themselves.
Apex Aims to Speed Up Fund Payouts, but Clients Are Unsatisfied
In a video update released this week, Apex Trader Funding addresses the issue of delayed payouts. Darrell Martin, CEO and founder of the prop firm, states that new security and fraud detection systems are in their "final touches," aiming to improve the existing process of realizing payments for profitable traders.
"We're working to get payment approvals processed within 48 hours or less when those requests come in. We aim to get those approved and out in just a few business days for those payments to hit back to traders. We're working on speeding that up even more," Martin commented in the YouTube video.

Company clients claim that shortly after the announcement about speeding up the payout process, they began receiving mass requests for video recordings of their transactions.

2 Days of Screen and Self-Recording
Comments under FundTraders' post on X (formerly Twitter) seems to confirm these reports. A user named Brad Roads stated: "JUST received video proof request at 7PM 2 days before when payout is supposed to happen. This video proof requires 'Two Trading Days' to be recorded. Bro I don't have time for this."
YouTube user comments suggested that in addition to recording transactions and monitor screens, Apex allegedly requires footage from a camera aimed at the trader.
"They want me to outline my whole trading strat and record myself for 2 days with a webcam facing myself and monitors at the same time as well as recording my screen, they also want me to give them a written statement about everything. Bloody horror show!" commented a user named @muathmuath8450.
Traders are concerned on one hand that this may infringe on their privacy, and on the other, that it will expose their own investment strategies to the company, giving it full insight into the decision-making process.
Finance Magnates reached out to the company for comment on this matter but had not received a response at the time of publication.
The Achilles' Heel of the Industry
Apex is not the only company in the prop trading industry allegedly struggling with timely payments to its traders. This is a common issue for many other prop firms, with The Funded Trader being one of the most recent examples. The company has been behind on payments for months, and according to the latest information, it has managed to process 30% of outstanding payments for traders and 55% for affiliates.
According to Michael Bernan, a guest author at Finance Magnates, prop firms have become victims of their own success.

"As soon as there are not enough new traders entering the system to cover the payouts of the winners, the firm becomes technically insolvent and unable to pay fees," he commented.
He adds that the demand for cheap capital to trade with a high payout is insatiable. Companies try to defend their liquidity by blocking profit withdrawals, citing violations of trading rules that are often unclear, hidden, or created on the go.
"In essence, the business models of most businesses offering 80-90% profit share are unsustainable, and most will eventually go bankrupt, leaving clients with unpaid profit share. This part of the industry continues to become increasingly dodgy," Bernan concludes.
