Yes, it's when you finish too early they have an issue.

Yes, I was just stating that if there max payout is 1K, it wouldn't seem worth the effort.

OK, Thanks, yes I was startled, thought maybe the targets go up on 2nd and 3rd verification. As far as the not paying over 1K, that is regardless of how much you earn? Wouldn't see the benefit there if that were the case. BTW, great thread. I am on ...

I agree 100% Davit. Actually learned to stay away for USD from you. EURAUD, EURCAD,EURGBP,GBPAUD,GBPCAD,AUDCAD,NZDCAD and AUDNZD make up the majority of my trades as well. They simply behave and respect pivots much better than other instruments.

Plus, last Thursday I passed my second Challenge (10% in a month) and am now onto Step Two Verification (15% target in 60 days). I have also just started my second challenge with FTMO and hoping you mistyped the 15% target in 60 days. It is still 5% ...

No, not at all. I experienced the 80-90 pips drop on GBP/JPY as well, fortunately my entry was at the bottom of the spike, so got stopped at BE. I was referring to all the posts regarding outages and yours specifically saying they purposely make you ...

I'm about to pass my second challenge. I guess I must sleep through the server outages.

It was 7 am eastern time, Boris came out and spoke like all these talking heads do and it moves the market more than the scheduled events

Yes, they cannot have it both ways. If we can not take advantage of positive slippage due to it being a demo, no way we should have negative slippage. I had a GBP/JPY buy about 70 pips in profit, with s/l at BE, it closed at BE. I think I was just ...

So my opinion may be skewed due to the fact that I have passed challenge and verification and I'm trading a funded account. But here is the bottom line, the 92% that fail have only lost $600 to learn that trading may not be for them. The fact still ...

Wow, you've made $700 ALREADY this month. I see the issue now, you cannot afford the challenge fee.

Nice work.

Awesome. First payout? How large of an account are you trading?

FTMO - For serious traders

Yes, you need compounding when trying to grow an account. This is exactly the market FTMO provides, give you the large account from the get go. Therefore, I can take my profits every month. The money they scale you, the 5% figure moves with it. When ...

When you say that is all does that really mean your done? I'm sure most here would love that.

Please do your research before posting useless bullshit. There are 7 RESTRICTED events, most of the events you can trade right through. Do you guys even go to the FTMO site before posting your useless, incorrect bullshit. Seriously, enough already. ...

FTMO - For serious traders

Once again, incorrect info from someone just posting without having the info. I love you guys. The 5% daily only becomes smaller if you leave your profits in. It has already been discussed here that there is no reason to do so. So every month, take ...

C'mon man. The only time they do not allow limit or stop orders is during a 4 minute window around 7 news events MONTHLY and only on the affected instrument. You just keep coming up with more bullshit. Are you not good enough to pass? To me, it ...

All of your arguments aside, here is the bottom line...... Unless you are trading a $210,000(70% of 300K) account for yourself, assuming we are of equal skill level...... I AM EARNING MORE MONEY THAN YOU TRADING. If you are trading $210K plus, than ...
