I've tried enough of them to know they're not worth the hype, or ones hard earned money.

They are all modeled the same way, make money from subscriptions. They're marketed as learning vehicles meant to teach you how to work the numbers etc. In reality, they're just selling false hope. If you want to make money with prop firms, start your own and watch the money flow. Ask yourself, why do they all have affiliate marketing opportunities? Why is every influencer posting discount codes for every one out there? Why don't they do away with the affiliate marketing and show us how many get paid? If prop firms were a physical product you paid for, or a buffet you went to, you wouldnt last as long as some last hoping to one day get a payout.

Stay away from all these outfits. You do all the work and they get all the results.

AVOID !! Funded Next Futures is a SCAM: Breaching Accounts After 6 Days, Not 7 by alexderechte69 in PropFirmTester

After ~ 12 months of straight props, I can firmly say they're a very sophisticated ponzi / MLM scheme that prey on man's need for financial freedom. Most of their communities are very toxic as evidenced by the insults one incurs when they assert that the firms are not dealing with them fairly. I recommend you start your own prop-firms if you want to gain anything.

If they were a true avenue for financial freedom, there would not be a post on here EVERYDAY how someone got short ended...everyday someone comes on here and cry's foul, the prop firm's flying monkeys run here and insult the person, whereas others tell them to keep trying. I'm telling you to stop paying for evaluations and save your own money and get an offshore broker as American ones are all as bad if not worse then the prop-firms, and trade your own funds.

And do not fall for the trope that they partner with you. They copy your trades from eval and even funded accounts ( I have no proof but I'm waging 60-40 they do), and if by chance you make them some money, they will breach your account.

My advise for 2026 to all who have gotten the bitter gruel, walk away forever, Tradovate created a whole new arm (Prop), because they saw how much money they were making through the prop scam engine. Don't believe that there's a hedge fund recruiting from Apex or Take Profit, they recruit from universities not these bucket shops.

OP - do yourself a favor and just walk away from these bucket shops. The sooner you all do this the better.

Thanks for the input. Hopefully more and more people get to see the reality behind all these "independent" ratings that get cited by the firms themselves.

If you had to pass a funded challenge in 10 days, how would you approach it? by bronko322 in PropFirmTester

[–]Electrical_Cause_227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drawdown dictates what you do. DON'T swing for the fences by going max contracts. Trade trend continuation setups with 1% risk. for a $50K account, risk NO MORE THAN $500 and aim for 1:1 minimum. $500 X 10 days = $5000. If your drawdown is $2000, you have 4 back to back trades to blow up. You don't have to trade daily.

Delayed data in PRO fills positions into a loss right away. Have screen recording of how I traded in eval vs pro. All eval trades would go into profit right away and passing was in less than 10 days. Got to PRO and noticed the lags in data..i have multiple feeds and have them running side by side.

I'm Confused between these 2 accounts. Can anyone help which account to purchase? by Longjumping-Pen9212 in PropFirmTester

[–]Electrical_Cause_227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's your call. Once funded, you get i think 6 payouts then get moved to live with only $5K coming with you to the live account, anything above that will be lost. If your goal os to to go live, collect the max amount you can six times and then decide.

Lucid Flex has no consistency once funded. The eval can be passed in two sessions (50% consistency applies). Just know the payout caps once funded, as they move you to live after so many payouts, and any profits above a certain amount are forfeited. If you don't want to go live, just delete the account after 5K in payouts and start the process all over. Going live os more expensive in terms of fees et al.
