{quote} Some firms banned the trading of metals. Maybe that's the reason?
I remember those restrictions being put in place last month, I didn't know that they were still onging.

Damn if that's the case it's going to be hard to trade.
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

Most likely, it’s the account restriction on metals, especially if some firms have banned trading them.

I've asked AI and done a bit of research but thought I'd double-check with you guys. Is there any prop firm (of the reputable or near) that offers a liquidate and block feature similar to Topstep? It seems I developed a bad habit while trading to pass challenges that I'm still working on deleting from my brain. My research did not reveal any other firm that will allow me to choose my max DLL so that if I hit it, I can survive with a reasonable hole to fill next day. Thanks in advance.

{quote} Is it possible to access the same account through both platform? Then, I wouldn't mind paying extra bucks. Otherwise... same thing can happen for ctrader too? specially if the datafeed is the issue.
Hi fxpider, have your trades from last night outage/s from 5ers ( if you had any trades during that period ) been cleared and account up to date? Still waiting here..

I managed to close them with a small loss. No idea if they would do anything about it. Haven't heard anything from them yet.

{quote} Can you ask them why they banned MOnty instead of moving him to a live account as their marketing promotes? He clearly did not break any rules as they did indeed pay him.
No "Live" account at Tradeday is guaranteed. After your 4th milestone (20k profit), you will be evaluated for a move to live. What criteria do they use for evaluation? I don't know. I "suspect" it is a combination of factors--- the 2 biggest being 1. How much buffer do you have in your account to transfer to live and 2. What is your trading style? Big buffer and conservative trading most likely gets you a live account. Small buffer and Home Run trading likely does not. Again, I have no inside knowledge. Tradeday states that they are looking for traders that have a good chance at long term success. There is nothing wrong with the Home Run Strategy (make a lot of money in a short time frame). Some do it VERY successfully. But those traders should not bother with Tradeday. They only offer 3 accounts. There are much better prop firm options for traders looking to make big money fast.

ps.-- I am not affiliated with Tradeday, just have an account with them. They have never failed to payout as requested. I value this. I have been flat out cheated by other prop firms.

As someone who despises evaluations I decided to buy a Lucid 50K Direct account for $364. I know most don't like the small 4% total drawdown but it's fine for me. If I need more than 4% drawdown to make 6% profit then I didn't trade up to my potential. So, I'm good with paying $364 for $2000 in drawdown.

Anyways, unless I'm missing something I should be eligible for a 2K payout request after the daily reset. First time using Lucid. Assuming I'll only have $910 left in drawdown to play with?

Nice work....Yes, if it works like the $150K (I've only done direct with Tradeify) where you need 9K, 3K should be (1/3) the target for first withdrawal.
That first 9K only allows you to pull 3K, so pulling 2K from 3K seems abetter deal.
Yes, DD is locked at $50,100, so after you withdrwal 2K, $910 will be the DD

Thanks!

I'll see if the request option is available after the daily reset.

ID verification and linking my checking account via Plaid took about 5 minutes. 2K requested. 1800 hit my account in 60 seconds. Impressive.

Lucid is now my go to prop going forward.

{quote} Not there yet with 5%ers. Was looking at FTMO, but did not get any info if the use of EA and Trade copier are allowed. Nothing is mentioned in the FAQ.
From FTMO FAQ
Your trading style is up to you. As long as your trading is legitimate (in line with proper risk management), conforms to the real market conditions, and does not resemble forbidden practices, we have no reasons for limiting or restricting your trading strategy, whether it’s discretionary trading, algorithmic trading, EAs, etc. When trading, keep in mind that your trading style should be replicable on live accounts to generate the same results as on your FTMO Account. We do not require you to use a Stop-loss (although it’s generally advisable to always have certain safety measures in place). You can trade all the instruments and assets that are available in your trading platform (Forex, Indices, Commodities, Stocks, Crypto,…). You can also view the available symbols. If your system is profitable while respecting the rules, we’re happy to see you profit with us.
If you intend to use trading robots (Expert Advisors – EAs), keep in mind that if you use an EA from a third party, there might be other traders already using the same EA and therefore exactly the same strategy. By using a third-party EA, you potentially run a risk of being denied the FTMO Account if you exceed the maximum capital allocation rule.
