Dont you guys think, the article is written based with Commercial Intention ?

AXI is probably targeting FTMO.

But they can not.

FTMO are the pioneers since Inception.

AXI is pioneers in Forex trading model. For them to come up to FTMO Level, long way to go.

If Axi's broker is a b-book trash heap run by croatian mobsters, what makes their prop offering any different?

there are many types of brokers most aren't just b-book anymore but some are like sway markets. Axi have a dealing desk but its not very sophisticated. The performance metrics are the same, money in vs money out.

Q1 ) AXI may not be B Book broker and that is good for normal mt4/mt5 traders. But i do not understand in what way it makes them better and feel they are better than Demo type Prop firm models

Q2 ) Some prop firms allow martingale type trading. Meaning adding trades on one side but with increased lot size.

2x..3x...4x ... like that.

Some prop firms do not allow martingale.

Saying that the risk of blowing account is bigger in martingale strategy.

I fail to understand, why some firms do not allow martingale. If the firms feel martingale eventually will blow the account, it is good for them ?

So, martingale is in general good strategy if 5 %daily dd or 10 % account dd risk is managed ?

If anything, the brokers are probably no different other than older people with more business management. If brokers were the ones to start props the bannings would have happened way earlier and way more aggressive.

Bad martingale rule:

Martingale involves opening multiple positions on a particular instrument in the same direction when the initial position opened on that instrument is experiencing a drawdown. This technique is considered Martingale if any of the following conditions are met:
Any subsequent positions are opened at a multiplier greater than 1x.
The subsequent positions are opened with varying volumes but at similar prices and times. Consequently, the combined volume of these positions exceeds 1x of the original position.

navk asks:

I say yes. I think it's important to be willing to take a loss on it once you hit, say, 2%. That also means starting out with small size, and accepting low, but steady, profits.

If
Subsequent position multiplier greater than 1x? No.
Subsequent positions are opened with varying volumes but at similar prices and times? No.
The combined volume of these positions exceeds 1x of the original position? Yes

Averaging "rules" transformed into Martingale in your nearest premium bucketshop to make sure that you cannot make use of their fake buying power and only use the DD limits.

Martingale is different from Dollar cost averaging.

Martingale is : 0.1, 0.2, 0.3..... in same side.

Dollar cost averaging :

  1. Dollar-cost averaging is the practice of systematically investing equal amounts of money at regular intervals, regardless of the price of a security.


I do not know if Dollar cost averaging is considered as HFT. ( Some prop firms )

averaging down ist all kind of bring average buying price lower then you bought with your old orders for buy orders (or higher for sell orders), so even many grid systems and of course martingale systems (simple averaging down with special factor)..... are averaging down systems.

all of this averaging down is of course big beginner level and no money win machine until you dont find stupid investors who are not educated about this small chance to win longterm by same time high risk only on their side. only because some traders (in this case pure gamblers) dont know where to place orders correct or dont have knowledge to trade or analyze, its used so often by beginners and of course most use case is for scammers and fraud. in this strategies you have advantage of higher chance to survive tomorrow with disadvantage of when you lose, you lose near all or very high depot values (when you dont lose all then you lose more often high amounts).

the ideal idea of such strategies is find an idiot (investor, copy follow traders, prop...... anyone who pay you performance fee) and then hope you survive until performance fee is calculated and payed out. because you have extrem high risk to lose all when you lose (but no high risk that this happens each day, so shortterm) so high risk of some wins until lose, you dont change anything in the edge of the strategy to the positiv, you reduce even the overall win extrem. but for investor money for scammers and cheaters its perfect, because you cheat the investor extrem by this. no prop company with brain would allow this investor cheater style trading types. plan is to win performance fee fast and then dont get influenced with the consequences of this idiot strategy, because you dont invest big yourself in this. the chance the investor lose all longterm is very high, for many in some months -2 years already.

if someone would invest deposits (like b-book broker), the broker would love you do this bullshit trading.... super easy wins for the broker long term and they can really win big when they would have only this kind of clients.
