Although I've reached the necessary profit to receive my 4th allocation in a row I will continue trading the rest of the month. If I don't trade the rest of the month I would receive $250 for my first payment which basically covers my total investmennt in DZero up to this point. I am still curious how they set the rating each month after getting an allocation. I mean I only had to earn 0.47% for November. {image}
My take is you should trade to reach 20% by 8 months for gold allocation.

The previous 5 months weigh heavy, I got an allocation for this month despite being -0.77% last month and was already qualified this month before even placing a trade. Matter of fact, just checked and I can be -0.5 again this month and still receive the 30K.
However, I am going to get more aggressive to ramp up for gold as the current month is the player in gold....for seed allocations anyway. I'm sure investors are still looking at track record.

You have studied a lot about zero.

After 6 months, one can get decent returns ?
Or after 1 year ?
Intraday only.

This s & p range is too much to handle ? Of course, i took very minimal lots, to be on safe side Apex 1 : 677 $ Apex 2 : 592 $ MFFU : 619 $. No more today.
Apex 1 - 301 $
Apex 2 - 340 $
MFFU - 310 $.
FXIFY : 1 .05 %
Asian strategy, done and closed.

Tokyo yet to open.

No need to trade anymore today.

But, I do not know.

FXIFY, definitely will not touch anymore today.

Futures, I will.
Intraday only.

They are good IMO. They have mt4

Slippage minimal, not many restrictions, they pay for genuine traders who do not violate terms.

Agree.

Also, if I don't trade then it will take longer for my risk factor to increase. I've been stuck at 0.34 for over a month. So for me to make 3.4% in a month I really need to make 10% and can't go more than 2.5 lots to keep my VAR within the acceptable range. Not as easy as it might seem.

Anyways, still loving the model and the overall experience. I feel zero stress and trading for me isn't really work.

So much will depend on making consistent profits.

My goal is to have a minimum of 1 million in 3 years and 3 million in 5 years.

For now, the only thing that matters is to shoot for an average of 3% per month. If I can do that then everything will fall into place.

if one can do 3 % per month, it will cover the cost. But, after a year or so, once you get good allocation, it would be constant income.

The consistency matters in all kind of trading.

Yes.

No.
Pie in the sky.
Unless you can be the top trader on the platform for 6 months straight.
No one has done it.
Unless maybe with investor funds added or the sum of all allocations granted lifetime, one might get above 1 mil.


What is the maximum allocation for Darwinex?
€500,000 allocation
Receive up to €500,000 allocation if your return is the best on the platform in a given month. Allocations are awarded for 6 month periods, meaning you could receive a total of €3M if you were to consistently be the top-performing trader.

You could do it if you can make 2%/mo. apparently.

You could make that in one yolo trade and then leave the account alone till next month and then make another winning yolo trade and so on.
Easy for you I think.

I think people are missing the big picture here. My stated goals were for investor capital not for allocations

Allocations are nice. They can provide some extra income as you pursue the ultimate goal of securing investor $$$

Here is a good example: https://www.darwinex.com/darwin/JTL

This guy did well for a few years. Averaged a bit less than 3% a month and got 3 million in investor capital. BUT, for the last 2 years he's basically made ZERO profits. Hard to say if he got all of that investment capital in the first 3 years but you would think that may be the case.

Point being if you make 3% per month for 3 years then the allocations will just be an added perk. The real dough will come from investors

.... My only issue is its a pretty damn slow process to get something out of it...
Right now milking 2k from MFFU every 7 to 8 average days feels like a bit of waste efforts......
I am at a stage where For me MATH needs to be 10k or above to feel like doing something meaningful and adrenaline rush...
