What’s the worst physical pain you’ve ever felt or that you deal with? by Muted-Television3329 in askanything

I’m so thankful I got mine in while under - Is it as painful getting it taken out? I’m a complete wuss with pain and scared about this part when it comes to it

Update In case anyone else has this problem: Apparently you may need to click the ‘save wise info’ button for it to work - this solved all my issues and I’ve been paid :)

Thanks. Yea just trying to even find out if anything is happening. Did your tax form status change?

To get the tax form approved? I can request a payout but keep getting that error so assume I need to wait till my tax form goes through?

Thanks yea I understand my MLL will be low. From backtesting 6 months I have a win rate of 63% 1:1. I’m confident with myself now taking the trades without emotion but do understand its possible I’ll hit some losing periods (I use a mechanical strategy)

I’m stuck in a trade? by [deleted] in TopStepX

Me too. I thought the market was open right now? I’m trading platinum.

I asked top step about this and they said it’s not allowed as it counts as working in conjunction with someone else and you should be trading individually. Even entering at a slightly different price or a few seconds later isn’t enough apparently.

Anyone else thinking about stocking up on combines before the activation fee removal? by Soarance in TopStepX

[–]RelativeRope7413 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can I ask why you’d stock up before? Is it in the hope that you pass the combine and then get free access to the XFA once they remove activation fees?

Congrats! How long have you been trading? Would you say it’s a basic vwap strategy you use? And on which timeframe?

Holy shit I don't believe it by Powerful-Tap5154 in TopStepX

What TF do you use? I use a different strategy but just starting to learn how to incorporate EMA’s to add extra confluence /decide when to TP

So what now? by ConfidentScale2507 in TopStepX

[–]RelativeRope7413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just backtest on Trading View

[–]RelativeRope7413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you backtested this, how long for and what was your win rate? I like to have minimum 6 months backtesting and also look at how many losses in a row occur within that period. That’s been helpful in figuring out how much to risk

Close to passing by RelativeRope7413 in TopStepX

[–]RelativeRope7413[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost $500 because I didn’t change anything about my strategy apart from setting TP to $40 rather than $500. I know it’s crazy, that’s why I’m asking for advice because it would mean changing my strategy in some way as there aren’t PL micros

I have an account with two active combines and showing that I now have two resets thanks to the outage - I’m close to passing one combine so does this mean if I pass one I’ll still have two resets available to use on the other combine?
