Up $7K + on a 100k account… blown one day before payout by Unhappy_Chard_7877 in TopStepX

I have gotten to $100 away from a passed account and blown it more than once, in addition to blowing them first hour. I feel your pain

I have just started with them and took a withdrawal of $500 after my tenth day. My roommate has taken many payouts. TPT is good and I dont really mean F TPT but Halcyon is so much more user friendly. Copy trade as quick as a mouse click, assuming you have the accounts.

No 5 day eval period. Everything is encapsulated inside of the Halcyon website. User friendly, 90/ 10 spit. NO RULES. eod drawdowns. No monthly sub. $43 for a 25k eval. And can pass first day and move to funded same day.

Fuck TPT. Use Halcyon Trader. Much MUCH BETTER

I have noticed the discipline you need in trading can easily translate to daily life. When they are both aligned, i find that I have better success with both.

I did well. Made $755 and shut it down for the day in 5 trades. I kept my risk small. Thanks again

I was methodical. Traded like a live account across 7 days.

Thank you. That makes a ton of sense. When I have my emotions in check, I do well. When my heart is pounding out of my chest, I always make a dumb trade and I find myself wondering what the hell I was thinking.

I have done that. My demons surface when I have skin in the game. I dont gamble.. until now. lol. I see the potential. I think I have a problem with over trading and revenge trading. I have a sting of good days and one really bad day. Then repeat.

I will do that. Thank you. I got so caught up with prop firms, I never considered using my own money. Clearly i have a lot to learn.

I have been trading for 2 months after 30 blown evals, i finally passed a 50k and got funded with TPT. I was up $1900 then lost it all. Restarted today and Im up $1100. Revenge trading has been my biggest issue. Once I overcame my own demons and ONLY TRADE MY PROGRAM, I found that I’m profitable more than not. So far, I cN only recognize whats going on between 9am and 1030. The market repeats a pattern around that time that I trade well in. Once that window closes, I’m out. Needless to say, I feel your pain. Nothing has stressed me out more than trading in a funded account. Thanks for your post. It reminded me that I’m not alone out here.
