Prop Firm Hub

my personal opinion is that even Apex paid this guy for real, these are not good news. At the same time there is a mass demand for video proofs just to delay/deny payments. They could easily find a reason to deny this big payment, but they choose that crisis PR. A lot of people moved to other firms and this is jeopardizing their income. They need newbies to lose their money to have enough for payouts. What could be a better advertisement and dreams seller more than that?
I hope that I am wrong.

What i am hearing about video proof is everyone getting paid who is submitting it..

I am not a apex spokesperson but my personal opinion :-

I think the new automated system in place have some parameters set so people who are getting video proof emails somehow breached those params like multiple IP's, news trading or something else. Not everyone getting those emails.
But when you submit video proof thats a live person who checks it and it get approved.

This is the same situation couple of months back when we they started forcing PA RULES like no dca.

No matter what the situation in the end people get paid specifically the BIG PAYOUTS thats good enough for me. MY 2 cents

Denials are NOT PERMANENT unless trader goes rogue and starts bitching about apex in public. One needs to trade 10 more days normally or consistency.
Sure Just trade more time. This way they are giving you the chance to become the next one who will be paid a million bugs. You just need to prove yourself : )

This Apex is like a bad cult or something. If you go public and and criticize stupid rules or practises they have your payment denied. I decided stop using them and switched to other companies once they launched new rules which are so vague that nobody knows what is allowed and what not. For example how many contracts you can trade any given time. It shoud be okay to risk more when trader sees fit and less when markets are uncertain but you can have your payment denied / postponed because of that.

It is also strange that they promised lot of improvements earlier this summer but I haven’t seen any improvement so far. Discord is closed, client service is next to nothing and payouts are denied for most strange reasons. Finally, demanding video of yourself trading is ridiculous.

I might be wrong but Apex is going from bad to worst faster that I expected ever happen.

Well nothing is free in this world. Name any other prop firm paying that. Top step is more than 10 years I can bet they didn't even paid equivalent to top 10 traders in apex combined together. I agree they should not be grey area like if you want consistent lot size than introduce scaling plan.
Trade like robot fixed lotsize fixed target thats it. If they are milking us via 90% discount why can't we milk them by playing with their rules....

Recommending a new prop with 11 fake reviews in Trust pilot and using a referal link.
How can this be a serious recommendation "besides FTMO" ?

And please write in English (if you manage not to be banned by FF)

So far the best next bet, besides FTMO, seems to be 5ers.
E8 is not bad as well but trading execution is not good.

Not slow. They has free commission with wide spreads but then they were adding too much (more than usual - 0.3/0.4 pips) in slippage, even for 5 forex lots.
Nevertheless, I lost my account there and I purchased a new challenge, this time with raw spreads. I still don't have an opinion. Need to trade some more days to say something.

I agree that Apex has paid more than any other firm but it might also be the problem. I think we can all agree that once probp firm starts to introduce a lot of new rules and restrictions having problems with payouts at the same time, it is huge red flag. At least that what has happened with CFD props.

Personally I just don’t like the way they do business. They promise a lot but deliver a very little. All of these threats about closing accounts and payment denials if you publish anything about them just doesn’t sound right to me.
