When I took a look see @ DarwinZero they appear to have a very limited amount of Forex pairs available to trade & the same on the Futures side of the markets. Have I missed something? Would like to hear from those more familiar with DarwinZero. Thank you to those that respond.

{quote} From 15th July to 29th July there is a danger of losing the payout as we continue to trade with that account. This is the greatest setback of Apex. Btw do you continue to trade that PA account from 15th to 29th while waiting for approval?
Yep.... the way i target payout is --> First cover the threshold and then make the payout amount on top of it so for example for 150k - 5100 + 2750 = 7800$. Once i reach this target then only i request payout. Plus if you keep trading in my personal opinion improves your chances of approval. Coz i never used stop losses only mental stop losses and added to loser once many times. SO in short i played all within the rules to get paid.

almost every 1m bar is like a NFP/CPI/PPI/Core PCE/FOMC report release bar.

How does mental stop works when 1 minute candle is like 100-200 points. I NQ will wipe out entire 50K account in 1 minute....without even giving chance to press button.

{quote} yes some are worth from what i understand they are focusing on making systems to remove cheats before funded so there will still be many tears but no money attached to it. perhaps brokers no bs approach can stop these influencer scum from existing. I forgot to say if people think that brokers are going to abook good traders you need to take some drugs and eat an orange. "abook the good traders" is stupid.
why not A book some traders ?

Darwinex will Abook your trades bases on certain parameters being reached like the minimum 75 score , ratio return/drawdown,…and if you stay on that level more allocations will come your way

I can imagine that a firm like FTMO does something similar based on your consistency over time …in the beginning part will be A booked and gradually over time the % of the trades that get A booked will increase if you keep your consistency on the same level

you are not going to B book Paul Tudor Jones all the way till you are broke ,no ?

Not a problem if we reduce size. 100 points MNQ is 200 USD. Not a big deal.

Just realized the spreads have been less than half a point for NQ or USTEC as CFD while Futures on NQ had 12 to 16 ticks spreads, so 3 to 4 full points. So much better spreads with CFDs and I scalped with 8 trades today and all have been profits. Just traded small size, but 100% win rate on all my short scalp positions today.

@ Montygoldy

Do you yolo reports with my funded futures with the +/- 2m rule or does that rule not apply during evals?

I would trade a 50K with only micros.

Currently I am working with 300K apex and doing only 1 contract. 50K is too small for 1 contract size, unless you want to Gamble / Yolo.
Drawdown is more important than Account Size !
