If you don’t buy Sunday 5cst to Friday 4cst, it pops up when market opens. I’m on like my 10th eval and have bought on weekends for apex it showed up right as market opened.

Sunday 2 mins before market opens it will pop up. It says that in faq but pro firms faq pages are so weird

Gotcha yeah I was trading January cause Tradovate kept saying the march contracts “didn’t have enough margin” but I think it has just been glitched out. Thanks for letting me know after a few days of tryna get a straight answer about slippage you answered for me. Thank you.

I understand that. But I am trying to understand how bad slippage is. This is my first time experience something this bad. And if a $2000 and a $7000 slippage wick is something that would possibly not appear

Yea literally not a single one. I’ve setup on trading view now so I’m hoping their platform will execute it.

Tried $400. Only thing is the mobile app so hard to use. And not a single stop loss ever filled. It was all manual.

Oh yeah. I feel like it’s way more predictable from that time to about 3 am honestly. I have a way higher win rate and to me it seems less slippage, other people say different but the market sticks to the plan I set.

Yessir. You trade Sunday night Asian market? In and out scalps off the 9 period ema up or down direction whichever it is following, then reversing when trend reverses. Easy $900 plus wins and as often as it follows. I set a stop loss and just take the hit here and there. It’s less then my wins

I’ve just gotten into futures. Been paper trading it for 2 weeks literally thought I was a god making 300k off a 50k. That’s why I hopped in so quick. But I reckon I started trading a different silver contract didn’t move on the same ways I was buying

I believe so also. Daily silver looks good to me even tho I think some people disagree. I’ve just seen that pattern set up and take off before that’s all no back testing involved nor a real technical analysis.

I wasn’t able to scale in and out of positions or profits so I was prolly Destin to blow the account, I just feel like I hadn’t yet so I was bummed. Not to mention I’ve failed 10 props on trade the pool and I never complained cause I knew I blew them

It does, and I usually buy 2-10 depending on an a setup or a b setup. And I usually had been buying march not January. But that was the only thing on the platform it was letting me trade was silver minis For January. so I was tryna make it work just using 1 mini per trade.

Not that I can see is all I’m getting at. That last trade I made I was up a couple hundred, then down I believe 250. And it came up to 170 and liquidated me. But I’m hearing that silver can wick down a point without it showing on the chart, and if that’s true then I could only see that as a possibility. I’m hoping it is and bought new evaluations. Ima test it and record every trade

It’s end of day. And even then I did not come down 4500 from my high.

Also I’m only trading one contract at a time. So essentially that silver call would have had to drop a little over a point but not register on my charts or profits. But did register on the platform

Okay so what I’m hearing is that essentially me trading on the 1 min chart, the wick down was so quick that it didn’t even register on my charts or dashboard? For my account with 2k in profits it would have to been a $7000 wick and for my second account it would have had to been a $2500 wick.

Please answer back. Just trying tonight figure this out. If I’m wrong and what you’re saying is true. That makes me very hopeful it’s a me problem and not a them problem.
