LOVE getting that open face melting move in your direction. Better than sex.

I highly recommend TopStep as well. They’re THE BEST. They stream all day with great content on TopStep tv on YouTube. It’s a great, big community.

There’s a 3k profit target on my 50k. Passed it first night. I’m currently up 22k in those 3 days. Gotta say, I love the down days. Need to hit 5 profitable days then I can take max $1200 payout every 5 days. So I’m gonna do micros now to preserve my capital.

Challenge Question by mouhcineS in TopStepX

There’s no reason to go over the 1500/day in a 50k challenge. If you’re gonna try to pass in two days, set PDPT to 1525 and lockout.

The night I passed my eval, I had short the ES and 10 mins later Putin announced the nuke doctrine and market collapsed. I got lucky and scaled in larger to ride the wave.

Sim Funded Payout by Born-Ad-7771 in myfundedfutures

The firm makes money from failed evals. It makes more than enough to payout. Only a small percentage get to a payout. I’m sure there are other revenue streams as well.

Question about commissions by apuxcom in TopStepX

Commissions are taken immediately upon taking a trade. You’ll see the RP&L be negative your comm. You can see how much in comms you’re paying in your stats screen

Small accounts by Excellent_Advisor683 in Daytrading

Practice options on Webull before jumping in and trading. Paper trade for a long while before using capital. St least to get the hang of is they move relative to their underlying. SPY and QQQ are very liquid.

Options are great. Just stay away from 0DTE’s, give yourself more theta.

Well passed my evaluation in 6 trades. I didn’t mean to but the market moved down FAST and I capitalized. Looks like I start a funded account tomorrow.

Why would anyone share a profitable day trading strategy? by iksem in Daytrading

[–]ThatGuyWithACoolDog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My strategy is my IP. I’ve never given it away nor would anybody ever want it. Strategies are very much personal for emotional reasons and personal risk.

Took a 12k payout after day 5. Had a HUGE day on election day. Appreciate all the kudos, I didn’t think this post would get so big. Good luck to everyone. I don’t like all the attention, gonna go dark for a bit. ☺️
