{quote} Thank you. Yes, that's right. However, I wonder from an investor's point of view how it helps them to know that there is still a 5% chance of losing more than 6.5%, or in case of doubt, 100%. I understand that Darwinex cannot carry out active risk management with so many accounts, whereas someone like a risk manager who works in a hedge fund might have more control over it. Yes, I know that even then there is probably a residual risk that an investor could lose everything, but perhaps that is one of the reasons why Darwinex has apparently...
It's clear you have no understanding of the Darwinex model

There is ZERO percent chance an investor could "lose everything". The risk engine 100% makes that impossible

Also, the only traders who havent attracted capital after 5 years of "profitablility" are those that had a good year or a few months and then made nothing for months and months and months.

Any consistent trader making 2-3% per month who has outperformed the SP500 will attract piles of investor cash.

The problem isnt the Darwinex model. The problem is that 95% or more of the traders cant achieve the goal mentioned above

We go thru this over and over and OVER again.

Find me a trader that has made 2-3% for 18 months and they will be in the range of 1 millon in capital

Maybe a total loss is unlikely but I wouldn’t say it’s not possible to happen. Otherwise please tell me why it shouldn’t be possible? A 95% chance of something not happening isn’t a 100%. There are DARWINs on the platform with well over 80% max. drawdown.

Most traders can’t achieve it. Correct. Right now there is ZERO guarantee that a DARWIN will reach a certain min. AuM after meeting certain milestones. That’s a fact. The question then is why somebody should be willing to spend years of their lives trying to get there (while even paying a monthly fee in case of Darwinex Zero).

Right now there are 10497 DARWINs listed on the Darwinex platform (both classic and zero). From all these DARWINs there are only 18 DARWINs with AuM > 1M (0.17%) and only 3 DARWINS with AuM > 5M (0.03%).

Darwinex was founded in 2012 and the investors platform opened in April 2015. So more than 10 years and yet only 0.17% of DARWINS with AuM > 1M.

The promise of providing profitable traders with significant investor capital is certainly questionable. I don't believe this is solely due to the poor traders. There are far more than the 18 Darwins mentioned with good, consistent performance and track records spanning well over five years. Where are their millions in investor capital?

Don‘t forget you only get paid out a 15% performance fee. While this might be „industry standard“ it won’t help you if want to realize making a living from your DARWIN‘s return. With only 1M in capital making 3% a month you won’t get anywhere.

Say you’re the 0.01% Elite-DARWIN that consistently averages 3% return a month. That’s 36% a year.

1000000*0.36*0.15=54000

54k gross per year as a self-employed trader here, after taxes you will be at 35-40k. Awesome. You will be better off working at McDonald's and probably had to spend less time doing so than if you’re perhaps even a discretionary trader who spends hours every day in front of the charts.

So right now probably 0 DARWIN is able to make a basic living out of all the time/money spent. Not saying nobody will, but yeah please keep me updated once there is one here doing so. Hope I will still be alive by then :-)

To me it seems it’s nothing better than pocket money you get out of Darwinex. Maybe better to save the 38 EUR a month and try to somehow get 280k in a personal account so at least you will be able to make 6 figures a year averaging 36% a year or go the prop firm route.

Please Monty. You’re posting here every day how you’re basically gambling (excuse me, trading with sound risk management and no gut feeling decisions) trying to „milk“ these discount cheap ass props firms following all their „hot deals/offers“ but then saying they don’t treat you fair?

When consistently making money, it is already called "trading with sound risk management and no gut feeling decisions" without needing to prove it to anyone.

Okay, I have limited experience with prop, and only on evaluation, not passed anything, but I have this question

If they have a rule that says: Max positions = 3, why not incorporate that into the software so that no one could / would / should break that "rule"?

Isn't that basic logic?

IDK, maybe I have found the stupid question when people say there are no stupid questions.

Interview. There you go. This prop firm will come up with all kind of excuses not having to pay.

I can’t understand why you even consider dealing with so many dubious prop firms. Why don’t you just work with 5ers, FTMO or Topstep? You also wouldn’t need to trade/handle so many different accounts.

Aren’t they providing more than enough capital IF you can actually trade so well, using your 1337 momentum strategy and sticking to their rules?

Sounds logical, one would think that having fewer accounts to juggle allows one to concentrate on trading even better, use the biggest account allowed, he could become the poster boy for the firm, they might even pay him to be in the ads!

He's not gambling.....once again, you clearly don't understand HIS business model.....he goes "all-in" with $90, less than someone with a 10K account risks on a single trade. That one trade with a 1.2:1 RR then yields him $2,500 DD to trade with. He can now choose to go aal-in, risk half, whatever to get to a payout.
The bottom line is he is risking far less than the "industry standard of 1% of this trading capital.....Now if he had $90 to his name and that was his entire trading roll.....then he is gambling.
I am not sure why you post here, what you are searching for.....but absolutely nothing seems to satisfy whatever it is you're searching for....it is nothing but negativity and trying to poke holes in every broker, firm, trading system that is discussed here.
You may need to be put in time out.

If you've met all the criteria to receive a payout, they should send it to you without any further questions. Period. Furthermore, there shouldn't be any problems at all with further orders as long as you haven't already exceeded the maximum number of accounts you're allowed to have.

It seems almost strange to me, and in my opinion, there are only these explanations:

- The company is garbage and doesn't stand by its own statements.
- The company can't duplicate your trading style on a live account (as they supposedly offer).

I'd love to see an "interview" like that. Can you send it to me somewhere? It's probably better than any comedy movie on Netflix right now.

One can only hope all these so called full transparent reputable prop firms become regulated or go broke soon.

Why would you wish them to go broke......so your fellow traders cannot keep pulling money from them? That's pretty shitty thinking.

Yes and Tradeovate and Ninja just released platforms SPECIFICALLY for prop firms.....FTMO and the 5%ers are back in the US......seems the industry is actually better than ever. Futures firms are doing great other than a couple of bad apples and the forex space needed some consolidation and removal of the inferior firms.
