The long term viability of the online props is starting to look more shaky. I plan to change my approach to more short term thinking than long term. I will split my total funding into 4... trade 25% @ a time at higher risk to 3-4% target & stop to ...

Have you seen what has been happening in crypto vs. the SEC? They shoot first and ask questions later.

Oh wonderful... a prop firm owner runs a side hustle ponzi scheme & gets sued by the SEC. While we're at it, let's look over his prop firm's books... hmmmmmmm this looks like another ponzi scheme. This is definitely not a good development! I wonder ...

100K account FX majors with a 5-23 pip sl, I trade 9-40 lots @ 2% risk per trade during Phase 1... calculated gambling yes... but it works for me and likely Navk too. If you want to pass quickly, you do what you have to do. How you handle risk on ...

Anybody change their phase 1 risk approach based on unlimited? Josh @ MFF mentioned that it's basically a marketing gimmick & not much will change. He also thinks less people will pass now since a large % that eventually passed phase 1 were lucky ...

If we could just get regulators to take out eightcap and leave everyone else alone that would eliminate alot of the problematic firms, but that is not reality. Regulators are currently pre-occupied with eliminating the competition for upcoming ...

I personally don't believe in the viability of unlimited props. Even with a high sharpe ratio system, with the time limited evals I still lose challenges 35% of the time and feed the beast. With unlimited time, I would simply reduce risk and never ...

@ 1% risk per trade, I would typically have 4 or 5 months a year that could pass MFF (>8%) and 3 maybe 4 months that could pass FTMO/TFF/TFT (>10%) phase 1s. The other months would end up slightly negative months blowing the challenge or require ...

My assumption is that if the 2 props are using eightcap on the backend then they have the information to shut you down.

I don't believe it was fake, but if I recall correctly, he almost violated the daily limit so he definitely traded @ high risk per trade. He also has the bank roll to keep blowing accounts @ high risk until he eventually ran into a great month with ...

It really depends on your system's accuracy and if the market cooperates enough for you to get lucky while over risking. I roll with 2% risk in phase 1s and have failed about 28% of the time over the last 1 1/2 years, if I run into a losing streak ...

I wonder what's the reason for having 1 set of conditions in phase 1 then more realistic conditions in phase 2?!?!?!? Why not just have realistic conditions at all times period?

@ Takisd I recall @ one point you were trading up to 200 lots with MFF. That's = to about 40 lots of dow mini futures with only 5 lots available top of book (25 mff lots), so what was the slippage like to fill that many lots live @ MFF?
