Would be curious if they have changed their opinion about scalpers.

-It was my understanding that they would still refund you so long as you passed the challenge...even if their risk team determined that you were not what they are looking for. Some firms even pay an additional 10% for your time, but I do not ...

-If you are referring to the challenge, I can disagree with this point, personally, but having a very high win-rate is a lot easier as a scalper. As far as trading beyond the challenge, the rules are not impossible at all, and are completely ...

-Increased profit-potential without taking on the additional risk. It can also serve as a good diversification method.

-Calling a firm a scam because their trading objectives are too difficult for you is nonsensical. -Nobody claimed that there was no risk involved. But once you pass the challenge, you are trading with house money and no longer have to generate crazy ...

-Looks like you lost large amounts of profit several times, even about 30K at one point. So FTMO is a scam because you were not able to adhere to the trading objectives? Yeah, that seems legit.

When it comes to business, reaching goals, self-improvement et al., I choose positivity over negativity any day of the week. Better to surround yourself with positive people and ignore negative people that always complain and doubt everything; ...

There will always be critics and negative nellies. It does not matter what you do or how well you do it.

In truth, it would not be very favorable to these firms, and to most traders, to offer a more realistic challenge. Not only would that likely reduce their overall profit-potential, but it would require traders to wait even longer for their live ...

They do allow those states, but have not updated their website to reflect that.

Not sure what that has to do with my comment. I never called him that.

-PaulMF was also good at making provocative comments, then playing the innocent victim when people started responding to his nonsense.

Only 4% daily DD and a 4% profit requirement for (first?) withdrawal. Other than that, looks okay on the surface. All of this talk of better and best is not so important.

d. Increased maximum capital allocation (via more accounts), especially for long-term traders that have proven to be consistent. The current account-growth systems are not attractive for incentivizing loyalty in my opinion, and having the option to ...

-The draw-down should trail until you hit 10% on the account, so you would have more than 2.5K draw-down, presumably. Nonetheless, the fact remains, that once you do reach 10% on the account, the firm is no longer providing anything of value to you, ...

-Please do not suggest that. Spreads can and should always be improved upon. If everyone chose to say nothing, then FTMO (or any other firm) will never feel any pressure to improve. That being said, it will be much easier to ask for better spreads ...

-That seems very unfortunate. -If you were truly receptive to hearing traders out, and genuinely cared about finding a healthy balance, then you would strongly consider ditching any program that forces traders to use their own money to serve as 100% ...

-I suppose that everyone should. I trade during a time-block where there is a lot of volume, where everything is the most predictable and suitable for my strategy. When you spend enough time studying the charts, you can see that different strategies ...
