Yep had issues with this on FX. You may be able to trade metals/indices comm free with some firms? Although you'll have to get over a wider spread...

Yes there is no comparison. It's a different model. Frustratingly they were never able to steer the frequency distribution of funds fairly to performing traders and I think they lost a lot of opportunity and talent due to insisting they could fix a ...

I traded for them in the early days and earned a tiny amount of money despite pretty good performance. They don't pay you on your strat and risk, they have built IP based on software that basically treats retail flow like an off the shelf copy ...

If any do, probably over at Fundseeder.. or flying well below radar.

"a question with a question" Ha! Yes right back a ya Yes they had a go at it called Freestyle if I recall (if we are talking about the same things) but it ran into headwinds as soon as they went open with it. As yet I haven't had anyone ...

What does a prop firm expect as a return on investment from a live trader per annum? What's his / her Sharpe ratio need to be? Does that even ever get discussed?

I'm talking about reasonable time to pass a phase that allows you to trade how you would in a live market using your own funds based on the criteria of the drawdown rules. Not managing fat tail HFT hedge risk in a live market with toxic stink no one ...

I think I've lost the thread here? So a challenge/phase 1/2 is on "demo" where is the need for liquidity and infrastructure, let alone hedging/clearing? Even if server loads was a problem it would be easy to implement a max simultaneous trade rule.

"Such martingale or grid EA DOES NOT work. If it's really good, you would have made millions trading your personal account." Been there, worn the t-shirt and you are correct. Even in perfect conditions the costs will out run the profits eventually.. ...

I agree, and therein lies the problem. You cannot start one of these companies with no or very little capital and use accrued fees to pay the next customer, this is ponzi by it's very definition.

It's very easy for a prop to employ fair trading rules that suit what they are actually looking for. This talk of fear of EA grid traders clogging up servers for years is nonsense and panders into the hands once again of dodgy props and their ...

There are a few comments in your post that will put me to the opposite side of your view: "If we agree that payouts come mostly from fees supporting this all super easy features is like shooting your own leg" If payouts can only be paid by losing ...

Interesting conversations about no time limit or extended time limits. I don't tend to loiter on discord anymore but saw someone post something about MFF and a new programme which may address this and would be cool. In my opinion extending time is ...

Rapid doesn't really return enough to make it worthwhile, for me anyway. Better options out there now with longer times to pass evaluations which has helped the rapid model along the dusty road of no return..
