Great job, knew you'd pass. The money management skills of a poker bankroll carry right over to trading.

Yes, my point exactly, most of the largest brokers in the world. have tons of issues. Doesn't make it acceptable, but folks in here act like it's only FTMO.

I was simply explaining the process I go through. Honestly, I think this is a situation where like humans do most of the time, just pick and pick and pick at everything wrong without looking at the positive. I get it, it's frustrating, I was in ...

I 100% agree. If they are going to continue to grow, they will need 24/5 support. In this business, support needs to be available during ALL market hours. I still think what they offer vs. their competitors is not even in the same ballpark. I have ...

I believe commission has always been $3, the new server offers no commission on commodities and indices. I have also found spreads to be razor thin now. When I started my spread on GBPAUD was sometimes 7 in Asia and between 4-5 in London/NY, now ...

Yes, same here. I have emailed them as I had some small trades I was holding. Took screen shots of my stops in case price flies by them before server comes back on. If they plan on growing, they're going to need to consider 24/5 support.

That's awesome, congrats. I'm trading my first 100K, going to reinvest some of the profit into 2 more challenges as well.

For S&P 500, I only see the instrument for futures. I thought Tomas said they would be ADDING futures, but it appears as only option now?

Yes, max daily loss is quite simple. It is 5% of your starting capital ALWAYS. If you make 100% your 1st month and are sitting at 200K, your max loss is 110K, but daily loss is still 5K. When they scale you, they are, in essence, increasing your ...

Yes, the CHF is worthless to trade. Whatever trade you want to trade in CHF, simply trade the EUR cross, example if you want to buy USDCHF, simply sell EURUSD, buy GBPCHF, sell EURGBP. Since EURCHF barely moves it's the same trade essentially, but ...

Yes and while going through the "no time limit", they are hitting you with a monthly fee until you pass. Trust me, I've been in the game awhile, there is no comparison here.

Mine seems to update almost in real time. It did in challenge and verification as well. I did have one issue in verification where a couple of winning trades were missing from the journal and the graph, but the objectives displayed correctly. I ...

I know, it almost seems the underlying reason of these posts is to promote another prop firm. Come in here and bash FTMO and drop the name of the one you're promoting. Quite comical actually.

I agree 100%. Psychology is so important. I'm even thinking going lower than .5% as I usually add to the winners anyway. I find I am so relaxed when I can walk away and leave trade running. When I trade bigger sizes, I'm freaking glued to the ...
