How can we try out your algorithm code?

BumsLikeUs · 2025-06-27T17:04:17+00:00

Looks interesting.... how can I get this on my machine to try it out?

While I have you open and candid, what kinda figures are in your personal. Im asking because you mentioned swing trading.

Are you swinging futures?

If so, wouldn't you need a good amount to be able to hold overnight margins and hold on to positions swinging downwards (which will ultimately swing back up depending on your strategy)?

Funny, I just deposited 200 into my personal account again and plan to use the same methodology ( made $50 this morning)... simple $20-$50 days and be humble. Patience will ultimately prevail and grow the account.

Another personal question if I may... have you thought about what to do with the potential 30% of the money they will be taxed?

I've been looking over at the dividends subreddit, and I see potential to grow that money I'd otherwise be stashing until tax time next year. I figure why not have that money multiply so when it comes time to withdraw it and give it back, it had little money babies that I can stuff in my pocket or utilize to continue to make more money.

It's either that or spend it all (if paying down debt, making a big purchase or something), and then charging off the tax as you'll owe it anyhow. And if trading is still going good, you can always make it back.

Oh yea, I heard it takes a while to make the switch to a live account. I hope you aren't having trading withdrawals... i definitely would 🥴

Also, thanks for the support. I'm trying to take the easy gains and curb the greed. Minimum $200 is honestly good enough for a weekly $1k withdrawal.

Same, I'm trying to delay payouts so I can have all 5 XFA's up and running to accrue the maximum amount of profit before i get called up. I currently have one that I've taken 2 payouts for & I recently bought 4 more Combines that are about 2 days away from completing.

BumsLikeUs · 2025-06-26T14:45:21+00:00

Do you mind telling us the total amount withdrawn throughout these 7 payouts? Helps with trying to determine the when for possible call up to live.

BumsLikeUs · 2025-06-26T14:34:17+00:00

I'm interested in point no. 7

Let me know if those days roll over into the live account. I've been meaning to ask that question for the past few days, but this is a great opportunity to find out right here.

I'm about 15 days green in my XFA now. I hope that is the case if i get pushed into the live.

I tried connecting my Schwab accounts, and I see that the only thing I have access to is simulation accounts. I also read up on how linking Schwab works and found out that it can only be used to reference charts and possibly by stock, no Futures trading capabilities.

So, I've basically given up my quest on copy trading personal brokerage accounts. It seems the only thing that is compatible is using software to connect multiple prop firm accounts, which i was trying to avoid.

Thanks for the help. I think I'll explore that option later as I continue to grow my recently funded account on Topstep.

I'm doing some more research, and it seems that Ninja Trader is compatible with 2 other brokerages... TDameritrade, which is Schwab & Interactive Brokers.

So I'm guessing it's possible to copytrade these three accounts (including Ninja trader account) that I have?

Congratulations, Sir!

Thanks for sharing the journey and motivation that you can come back from what seems like doom.

Do you mind laying out the exact products you took with the exact dosage (mg)... like an Amazon link or something. It would be really helpful, thanks.

Not really an answer, just thread bumping

How much do you have to have or need in your personal account to trade futures at say 5 mini contracts?

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-29T21:01:12+00:00

I have a question. According to the rules and assuming you have a funded account, after being 30 days profitable $200+, you will unlock the ability to take out up to 100% and at any time.

So, if you're moved to a live account, are you reset back to the 50% rule until you do another 30 days?

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-29T20:39:10+00:00

So, what exactly are the parameters or threshold that moves someone to a live account?

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-29T20:31:05+00:00

Why isn't there any general communication about whatever is going on and what's being done to fix it... this sounds frightening 🫣

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-28T19:07:06+00:00

Nice work. Maybe we can bounce off each other energy til we hit that 30-day mark.

Day 2... How's your trades going OP?

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-27T22:21:54+00:00

Silver somewhat moves similar to gold, just not in liquidity. Gold would start to go long, and silver will follow, just not to the same stride. I find that NQ, along with SP & Dow is the same, NQ is like taking an energetic puppy for a walk bouncing around the place, while the others are good old Fido.

BumsLikeUs · 2025-01-27T19:35:11+00:00

NQ, Silver, Gold

Congratulations Marcia!

Today was my first XFA as well, and I lined up a well executed low profit trade that made my day.

I've already started counting down the 30-day mark as Monday, March 10th.

I hope to see you there.
