When do we get the allocation for the previous month, was it not on 1st of next month? {image}
By next morning of the 1st. You can still trade and it will count since payout is 90 days away from 1st account allocation. I'm waiting for my first 30K drop too. I got the allocation graph but the sidebar is still Oct 31. Waiting for that to update.

Just uploaded ID for first Darwinex payout request.....it is small, as I went -0.77% in October. Of course I made profit on 30K and 60K previous 2 months and neg on the 90K in Oct.
However, I still got 30K despite being neg and starting Nov as #414 with a 76.98, so already allocated. I will now have a minimum of 90K for all 3 months this quarter. Most likely, going to add the 100K as well since the math definitely works.
Not making excuses, but Oct was rough I overtraded to make up for lost hurricane days (that never works) and then traded cautiously back into a payout and allocation, as I didn't want to not get anything for 3 months of trading.
So now I will be about BE with Darwinex after payout and minus sub fees.
Strategy now, since this is quaterly payouts, is balls to the walls first two months and scale back month 3, aiming for 25-30% per QUARTER. If I get down 1st month, have plenty of trading to recover....need to start thinking in 63 trading day increments.
25% of 190K pays $7,100 quaterly, after EURUSD conversion closer to 8K....not enough for my lambo but not too shabby considering initial layout. This is of course, prior to any gold and/or investor allocation.

So you had to wait 91 days since first allocation to be able to withdraw this?

Yes, quaterly payout. Darwinex is definitely a supplemental, long game project.

ZZZZ
Need to buy a dozen 100K accts.

3 months of paying sub and trading just to reach BE with the 1st withdrawal allowed.
Definitely a tough start.

Nice job so far. Oct was a tough month for most. My algo likes DD so I did pretty good but I hope to emulate your payout with my first payoff. Looks like this would be a good time for you to add the 100K since when it activates it adds a 2nd HWM paydate.

Limit is 5 accounts even though I dont get it. For most people unless you want multiple paydates it would be net negative since you'd have to pay multiple sub fees. I understand it if you have diff stats or need more margin by using separate accounts.

Got my 3rd allocation this morning.

My rating only dropped down to 73.09 to start the month so I only need a bone crushing 0.47% gain in November to get another allocation. I don't understand how the rating gets adjusted month to month but, wow, it's really easy to get allocations. Once my leverage increases I could be very dangerous

Yea the 30K bar is pretty easy if you're consistent. 3 months of 30K = 90K. Add the 100K and you can have 190K as a baseline.

Didn't see that there was such code about your system. I was just surprised because in another answer you said to me that you wouldn't use an automatic system. I understand the reason why you attach these isolated and incomplete MT4 trading reports to your posts as an ego thing (look here) without any foreseeable interest for another trader. I thought you wanted to convey something of value ;-) Keep it up and good luck with Darwinex.

I'm going to wait until the end of November to see what kind of a payday I can get before making a decision on the 100K. I'd also like to wait and see if my leverage gets increased sometime this month.

The trader ranking 1 in gold (AMZ) has made 28.53% in almost 89 months.
That is .32% a month.

If he had made exactly that .32% every month, would he be better off? or worse or same?

He wont keep top stop. He deserves it. Had a bad 2022 and kept trading and fully bounced back. Stat doesnt seem likely to keep this pace for an entire month. Looks like a good start.

so,
Instead of the up and down and bad year and bouncing back, If he had made exactly that average of .32% every month, would he be better off? or worse or same?

Worse. The 0.32 could have worked for Silver and the smaller allocations but every time he got moved to Gold he wouldnt qualify for allocation and would slip back to Silver. The steady silver wins would keep bumping him to Gold where he would lose. Profitable overall because you'd sill be trading the Silver allocations (prob only 30K's) but you would never get Gold ones - wasted new alloc month even though you could profit. The big win months where you earn larger allocations plus good gain months when you do have the large allocations would waaaaay outperforms the silver/gold mess I described.

Checked AZM record AFTER I typed that and its exactly as I described. He earns lower Silver allocations then gets bumped to Gold and slides back BUT since he gains larger he has earned 180K in Gold allocations before this month. Imagine what his record would be if you zeroed out his Gold gain months plus he wouldnt qualify this month for what could be his largest allocation. You need the occasional 'good' months for larger allocation/earnings.
