{quote} You may have gotten the wrong impression. Yes, I am involved in many things related to trading, and admittedly, none of them have brought me closer to my goal so far, but to say that my head is not wired correctly is not accurate. If you have a concrete solution for how I can achieve my goal without continuing to search for help/information, please let me know. What I said is that if you can't even earn minimum wage consistently month after month with trading despite investing a lot of time, it's nothing more than a hobby, and my impression...
Why don't you simply get a job that pays you a salary every month. That way you will be happier and have a regular salary and we can go back to the objectives in Post one of the OP/

I think the activation fees only for 250k or 300k accounts not all of them....

Just when I thought I was out they drag me back in... 5%ers + FTMO CFD's here I come! This is nothing but bad news for the futures props... The US futures props greatly benefited from the exponential growth due to the stampede of banned former US CFD traders to their doorsteps, that growth has been over for quite some time... and Now here comes 2 of the oldest and most reputable CFD props with massive US mindshare back in the US prop market to reclaim their lost market share armed with static bal based drawdown & no payout buffer/safety net targets...
So.....has anyone looked at 5ers and FTMO? The costs are sky high, and the 2 step nonsense makes them unattractive. I have been funded at 5ers previously, but they have been greedier and greedier for years now. I was excited too, but once I looked into it - they aren't serious about getting US traders. They will never be able to claw that back, as they don't offer much in the way of fair terms. 15% over two phases by FTMO is wild, especially when 100k is over $600. The prices at 5ers are atrocious. They will not do well in the USA.

{quote} Well, to be fair, the "clear the buffer" of a futures prop is similar to the stage 2 of a CFD prop. But, yeah, FTMO is a giant, based on your latsest traffic updated, more traffic than the top 3 futures firms combined. I posted earlier this week, other than my Tradeify STFs, I am gravitating towards the no consistency, no payout cap, daily payout firms....perhaps other futures firms will be forced to offer the same to survive the new GIANT player in the market The good news is the FTMO US entity is following all of the US regulations as...
no consistency rules, no safety net, no payout caps, unlimited time to pass... i think the only plan that can realistically compete on the futures side is STF.

If I was starting fresh I would go with...

400K FTMO = 1.7x DD to pass + 2% payout
100K 5ers = 1.5x DD to pass + 2% payout
5 25K take profit = 2x DD to pass & clear payout safety net
5 150K tradify STF = 1.5x DD to payout target
5 150K lucid STF = 1.5x DD to payout target
5 150K Day traders STF = 1.67x DD to payout target

You'll usually pay more for brand/reputation than for no-name providers. I think they know what they can charge, and if it doesn't work out, they'll probably adjust it.

This is GOLD for anyone starting out....very knowledgeable source here.
Remeber, yiou can scale things, purchase 1, use payouts to fund the rest....initial risk can be kept extremely small.
I agree on the TPT, I love them, almost cleared the buffer, will get 4 more with 1st payout + refund (did that promo)......
No payout cap, no consistency, and withdrawal multiple times DAILY if you wish.

Same prices they had when they exited the market......FTMO was displayed in EUR, so once the conversion to USD, pretty damn close to what it is today.
Little known secret, if you go in to FTMO academy and take their lessons and exam, I believe it is 10%, maybe even 20% off.

Hi pipmaster. When you told "little known secret", I wondered.

I have a FTMO swing account returning 550 USD per month and I made 200K account 206K within around 10 months. Is there a way to get payout faster without waiting the target? Do you have any tip? With that speed I will get paid after more than 2 years. What makes it faster, if I might ask?

to pass faster? no such thing exists.
The FTMO academy used to get you a discount on your challenge, not certain if still true.

if amazes me that some people still don't realize requiring the clearing of the safety net to get paid is basically the equivalent of the CFD prop 2nd step. The combined return on DD needed to pass + clear the threshold is much higher than it was with CFD props. It's the main reason Apex hands out 1 step evals for fast food money! Where they make their money is after the more expensive activation fee is payed and a significantly higher % of futures traders go down in a ball of flames due to trailing DD + consistency rules.
