As a new prop firm enthusiast this actually seems scary to me. I sincerely hoped they wouldn't do this. Something is very odd about this considering from a business view and that they must adapt to the lesser companies business plans. Is this some kinda last push before the collapse they know about will happen from regulations? Milk as much as possible before regulators goes all in on the "forex" prop firms.

Consider brokers for example at 5% percenters

Frequently Asked Questions
Our Trading Environment
a
WHICH TRADING PLATFORM DO WE USE?
a
ARE TRADERS ABLE TO USE THEIR INDICATORS AND EXPERT ADVISORS WHEN TRADING WITH THE 5%ERS?
a
DO WE OFFER A TRADING PLATFORM FOR MOBILE DEVICES?
A
WHICH BROKERS DO WE TRADE WITH?
The5ers trades directly through commercial liquidity providers. We do not trade with common retail broker brands. We operate differently and our trading conditions have different requirements. Confidentiality is very important to us and we take as many precautions as possible to keep our supplier’s identity confidential.
When you trade with us, either as a portfolio manager or during your evaluation period, you are assigned a portion of our own capital and are able to trade on The5ers Fund’s behalf (directly from our trading-pool-account). To meet most of our traders’ expectations, The5ers provide the MetaTrader 5 trading platform, which is supplied by a third party technology integrator and provides superb market execution through sophisticated proprietary technology.
The 5%ers trading activities are all executed through our brokers, via the STP Market Execution. We have incorporated an ECN-Broker-Fees-Structure into our platform.The spread and commission are shown separately – the commission is $4 per lot round trip, which is 0.4 pips.
The spread for EUR/USD is about 0.1 to 0.5 pips.
The spread is variable, not fixed. During the night hours, when the volatility is relatively low, the spreads can get wide, especially during the rollover time (New-York midnight).


NOTE: I have no marketing connection with either FTP or this firm

-I guess the affiliate link that you posted a few comments back must have been a mistake. And also the last 2 years posting in this thread pushing FTP in 99% of your posts. All just a misunderstanding, probably.

I agree with the above sentiment.

8crap is the biggest cancer in the prop firm industry now.

First I have personal experience with their shitty broker and how they line up to screw traders in propfirms. I traded fundednext around 4 months ago in the live account. I took a 10 lot trade (nothing crazy for a 200k account) and the spread was literally 5.5 pips. And this was 1 hour before london session, so not in a time of non-liquidity. But thats not the worse part! It shows you in the MT4 platform that the spread is 1.2, but when you ACTUALLY take the trade, it goes to 5.5! When confronting the 85 IQ indian support, all I get is a robotic answer of "not enough liquidity". Like dude wtf? 1 trillion dollars of volume is traded on EUR/USD daily, its literally the most liquid trading asset in the world. And this problem never occurs in reputable brokers like ICmarkets. Conclusion? 8crap is in cohoots with the shitty propfirms with the sole intent to maximize the chance of failure, such that the shitty firms can gain risk free fees from challenges. Thats why over 10 prop firms now are with 8crap.

Second, I have it by second source that 8crap have a "starter" package for each new propfirm that wants to start for a hefty fee.

8crap should be banished and pulverized.

Trailing drawdowns and sketchy news rules are not worth it.

Doesnt FTP also have a mandatory SL rule and auto-closes your positions sometimes even after SL was immediately placed.

Yeah, big pass. I'd stick with reliable companies, especially now when they all seem to be going unlimited.

{quote} The advantages : 1) We go cry for extra loss limits ( more than 10000 usd in 100 k account ) in order to pass evaluation. In merged account, I have 24k loss limit and 10k daily loss limit. I can trade like 100 k account and not like 200k account. Meaning I can trade..same 5 lots or 6 lots... with increased dd limits. 2) If I make 400 to 500 dollars in a 100k account, the same 400 to 500 dollars is enough for me while trading 200k merged account with no risk of loosing the account I made today 792 $ and happy with this , absolutely no fear...
no further update just 1 night-stand?

{quote} It's a pity that we don't know when a bombshell will be dropped in some props because the right strategy would be to hit them with a huge payout before that, instead of having small payouts to be under the radar.
Was thinking the same thing. Notice would be nice, so we know which firms to YOLO. We already know, once they are done, they are not going to honor any exisiting payouts.

lol, and you come up with FundedTrading Plus with trailing DD and the 5%ers, who, other than their newest model, charges more in a "fee" than your available loss.
Yeah, OK, moving on........There is a reason MFF and FTMO are the two largest firms, BY FAR. They also have their own feed of LPs, this is not a concept exclusive to the 5%ers.

Yes, if FTMO and MFF offer unlimited time, they will only separate themselves further from the rest.......the two largest will become larger.
