Leverage is irrelevant, if you max out the leverage on either model, you have a 10 pip stop loss before violating. The DD is the factor, and once again you will be reduced to trading sizes you can accomplish on your own.

They are not taking a leap of faith if they have you on live from the get go. They made 50% of your profits on stage 1 plus your fee. Not quite equal to the new DD, but close enough. If you pass stage 2, from that point you are an ATM for them as ...

Which brings up the point, there is absolutely 0 benefit to the trader with these models. I have 100% of my personal account which will allow the same size positions as the prop firm. Doesn't matter the leverage they are offering, 50:1 with 5% DD ...

What I like about Dukas is it provides latest, 6 hours ago, 1 day ago and 5 days ago, so you can see the shift (if any) as well. Yes, using multiple brokers definitely the way to go.

Right, I trade weekly pivots and I use sentiment for confirmation mostly. For example, if I'm looking for a reversal say on a 61 or 78 pivot, but PA and sentiment say otherwise, it will either a. keep me out of a bad trade or b. I'll go with the PA ...

Also, keep in mind, if you are using a MM broker, and part of that model is B-booking...what stops them from skewing the data. They will do whatever it takes to get you on the wrong side. TRUST NOBODY!!! lol

Nice catch, Expo. I guess since the FTMO thread has become dormant, he's checking to see what everyone is up to?

Yes, stock market opened. US30 up 100+ in 5 minutes. Meant to quote snail.

Here is a great tool from Dukascopy. Not sure which broker data you are using for sentiment. url

Yes, I guess these models are just not for me. I much prefer the 30 day challenge, pass and have 10-12% DD. Just as you state why would anyone think they can get funding the same day, my thought is why would I pay a fee that I can just drop in a ...

Yikes!!! Thought they would do a much better job with this. Their eval model beats the competition, but this.....$4900 for a 50,000 account with 5K DD, $99 for a 2000 account with 100 DD and everything in between. What do they all have in ...

mine is an even 2 today, been holding at 2 all morning. I think it's actually fixed as there is no commish.

Well, I'm seeing 2.8 now. Maybe when stock market opens it gets thinner. I think I looked yesterday midday when I said 1. I'll check midday again today.

what takisd is saying if you make those returns CONSISTENTLY, you'd be a billionaire in a year. I call BULLSHIT. Unless of course, you are doing it on a $50 account. 150-200% per month. C'mon now.

I'm with you 100%. I am not judging anyone, just looking out for fellow traders. I posted the math a few days ago. By stage 3, personal account is literally double your 5%ers account. Added benefit....you keep 100%. However, if somehow you can twist ...

No, I have not, but Thank You, looks like some very good info I may be able to use.

Value per pip depends on the broker. On FTMO 1.00 is 10 contracts so $10/point. On Tickmill 1.00 is 1 contract so you would need 10.00 position for $10/point. So, $1 per point per contract. That is US30. If you go in properties of the instrument on ...

Yes, US30 has ranged over 400 pips today, but that is only 125% of its 20 day avg ADR.
