Lol you're right, most times the news just even makes the set up work quicker. I don't know why it still bothers me. Also, yeah I agree on posting expectations. I'll start doing that next week, would help to be better prepared.

The movement is not the issue. I repeat, buying power is the bone of contention. Whether it is Forex of futures, a 100k buying power is a 100k buying power. Not account balance, but buying power. Unless you can buy more contracts than your 100k ...

Because it is exactly the same as the futures offering but you're not just seeing it hahaha. They both say 100k buying power or 150k Buying power. Tell me the difference between both offerings in terms of buying power please. But Fx takes it a step ...

Definitely not random. Same pattern around the same time on Cadchf which I was watching but didn't take for fear of a news influenced whipsaw image

Lol Pipmaster already attempted that challenge with OutThere. 20k account with 1:6 leverage and 4% max DD vs $875 personal account balance with 1:200 or so leverage. Guess which one survived. You're not understanding the maths man. Btw, no one is ...

Max doesn't mean the trade can't open it means you should not do it. You can do it, but don't do it. "Here, take this 50$ and use only $10 from it to buy yourself an adult diaper" You can choose to use more than I allowed, but it would mean you have ...

image Lol are you arguing with the official website Ray? And Yes, FTMO, Enfoid, MFF etc all offer 5-10mill in buying power. Remember, we aren't arguing Forex v. Futures, we're arguing prop firm buying power in general. Topstep is doing the exact ...

Lmao that's the even worse younger brother - Topstepfx. At least they are more honest than Topstopttader (futures) in their offering. Paying $325 monthly for a 100k buying power/margin? Why not just save 2 months worth of fees and open a $600 ...

Lol how am I not correct? You just confirmed what I said. Buying power = Trading Margin. They give you a 100k or 150k account and that's all you have In trading margin. And you cant trade more than 10 contracts on the 100k or 15 on the 150k. So, ...

You're totally right, it's largely strategy dependent, that's why I say "in my opinion". In terms of percentage risk per trade with regards to these prop firms and their DD limits, I personally classify - Below 1% per trade - Conservative Below 0.5% ...

Hey Man.. As i've expressed many times, i'm really big on leverage so i dont really consider 5ers, lux or CTI as good options compared to offers in the market currently. As Mtinifx already said, i also think Lux is a worse off version of the 5ers ...

Lol you guys are always quick to point out all the negatives about FTMO while you ignore everything else but it's vice versa when you review other firms. Topstep give you a futures account of $100,000 with a daily loss limit of 2% ($2000), weekly ...

Lol i got Pepperstone Bahamas and Global prime Vanautu. Truth is I've never really expected any protection from any broker, I came into the markets believing they were all out to rob me whether they were regulated or not. I just look for the one ...

Lol we'll never agree on Topstep being the better option. Neither Topsteptrader or Topstepfx fall amongst the top 7 remote firms IMO. Not even top 10. FTMO is easily top 2. But you're spot on about the last part regarding FTMO technicalities.

Yeah, I wonder what it would take to make it update in real time. I don't know if it's possible but 4 years is too long to still be having these sort of metrix issues.

Bandicam is some sort of screen recording software right? I'm not sure that would be best for this sort of thing as it would be too large a file and you would probably need hours to search and isolate the problem or time it happened. Wouldn't it be ...

As a retail client myself I got this offer from pepperstone months ago. "Stay under ASIC and trade with 1:30 or migrate and trade with 1:400" Chose to migrate. All other conditions remained the same. Apparently, your brokers either didn't send you ...
