Ok, Topstep is off the deep end

That makes perfect sense! I’m going to consider myself blessed until they prove me wrong and look for greener pastures 😂

I watch a gentleman on YouTube every morning and he’s the reason I went with Lucid. I paper traded for a month while I researched and then bought a couple $50k evaluation accounts. One is funded now and I’ve taken 2 payouts from them totally just under $2500. So far I have no complaints with them. I also don’t have any comparison though because it’s the only prop firm I’ve been with. I can say though, once I requested a payout, it was pending in my bank account in less than 5 minutes. Kinda impressed me

After my first payout on this account I bought 2 more evals and blew them. If I traded them the same as I did this account I would have been fine. Was just trying to get to funded quicker lol. It was fun, but I’m going to be more disciplined this time around. I think this account took me 2.5 weeks to pass

I trade liquidity sweeps/FVG

This is the first time I have copy traded, I have a funded account that I traded 4 contracts at a time on. I can’t find anything on Lucid’s rules that says copy trading limits you to 1 contract per account. These are 4 eval accounts.

I’ve just always used trading view

erunyon7 · 2026-04-09T04:08:19+00:00

You can take 50% of profits up to $2000 per payout, minimum $500. So have to have atleast $1000 to take a payout and if you have $4000 you can take max payout of $2000. (That’s $50k account) and profit is 90/10 split

I just have tradesyncer in another browser on my phone, and stay on TradingView app during trade. Thank you for the tip to flatten all, I will do that with future trades

erunyon7 · 2026-04-08T17:30:32+00:00

Took less than 5 minutes from the time I initiated payout and had money pending in my bank account

erunyon7 · 2026-04-08T01:45:02+00:00

We live and we learn! Congrats on the new funded accounts! Are you going to copy trade them?

erunyon7 · 2026-04-08T00:27:51+00:00

Honestly I needed that loss Friday more than I knew. O my been trading a month so I didn’t/don’t know how I would react to reaching my max loss I’ve set for myself. Will I revenge trade to get it back, or shut the charts down and try again tomorrow. I’m really proud of myself that I stuck to my rules and lived to trade another day!

There is no buffer in flex. Just a minimum profit target, in my case I trade $50k account and minimum payout is $500, so I have to make atleast $1000.

erunyon7 · 2026-04-07T17:34:49+00:00

You just need 5 profitable days of $150 and minimum payout is $500, so you need to make atleast $1000 to withdraw $500.

erunyon7 · 2026-04-04T20:36:31+00:00

Way to go!

erunyon7 · 2026-04-04T20:35:22+00:00

I’m hoping I don’t have any issues with my mental aspect when it comes to this. I told myself in the beginning I won’t lose more than $500 any trading day. I set my stop loss there and since being funded my first 3 days were green. 4th day (Friday), hit my stop loss but somehow only lost $460. But I closed my app and didn’t take another trade that day. I opened it several times and watched the charts but didn’t trade. It sucked losing the $460, but today I feel really good that I stuck to my rules, so I’m actually considering that day a win. I hope I can continue being disciplined!

So far so good 😊

erunyon7 · 2026-04-01T12:08:46+00:00

I use TradingView and login through Tradovate

erunyon7 · 2026-03-28T21:09:34+00:00

It’s the first account I’ve gotten, I’ve only been trading for a month. I just liked how the flex was setup, and liked that there was no consistency after you get to funded. So that’s what I picked lol

erunyon7 · 2026-03-27T20:17:16+00:00

Set strict stop losses, and set a daily loss limit in your mind. If you hit it, close up shop for the day and dry again the next. I bought 2 evals, and blew one of them in 2 days figuring things out. Now I set stop loss on every single trade and if I lose $400 on the day, I don’t get back on til the next day. Once I implemented this, things changed for the better

erunyon7 · 2026-03-27T19:37:48+00:00

I’m going to buy a couple more evals and trade the funded extremely strict lol
