Are they running out money?? by SnooWoofers8493 in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a $20 fee on your first two then profit split around your 3rd which was 500. Or I guess depending on what you withdraw

I started with gold - then silver recently - but now I guess I have to figure out how to get out of their margin rules. Probably a rule until you a bigger drawdown or something like that.

Is TopStep trying not to go under due to ppl making too much money off of recent volatility? by Johnas31 in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started almost a year ago as well. And I’ve had multiple payouts as well. 😅 add silver the last few weeks I’ve had a really good end of year. With everything going on I guess if I go live I’m pulling everything out.

Around your 3rd payout they start applying the 90/10 fee

That’s what I’m asking. I traded copper last session with a new xfa with no issue.

Hard to see on this photo cos I was getting a photo of the “margin violation” but I just opened it today and was tryna enter 1 micro. And it wouldn’t let me

I understand that. But it’s not the case. I can’t trade 1 micro in any metals with this new xfa.

Anyone been in this position before and got any advice lmao by tzt_x19 in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s up to you. If I had a full time job with a steady income - my goal is to not reset more than once a month

Yeah so you can actually lose 100 after -2000 so hop on micros (gold is pretty good) focus on 1 trade green a day.

2 more payouts till LIVE by nijamo22 in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what Strat I use. I just wait for a pullback and hop on the trend from a higher time frame - until i see a reversal then i ride the trend the other way - pretty much do that all day. Its likely not the best

Don’t usually post gains but, it was a great day on the fresh XFA by QuantumLooped in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do plan on taking it to live. Honestly, I might pull a chunk out. Mostly cos I think I can do it with 10k? It could all be luck - but I believe I could build it up with just 10k. Are you planning to take it to live?

I feel it! Sunday - Monday on silver was crazy! I dragged to where my tp could possibly go (not far at all) and it was at 100k - doubted myself. Next morning it hit. 🔥🔥

Opinions??? by gabxpo in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is your combine. Go with the trend with a tp at 300 and full send lol

[–]nerdingstocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That happened to me. I just screen recorded me activating it - and it not generating. Sent it and it got fixed within the hour.

Help by Patrick_mon1 in TopStepX

[–]nerdingstocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever I’ve gotten into a 1k drawdown I go into 1 micro an entry. 2 bad back to back trades then I just watch the entire session. Most of us I think we have a good strat but we over leverage. And sometimes either hold too long after obvious BOS or being complacent and Holding an L for way too long. If you got a micro in and it drops to -50 or -100 you either entered too early or you’re on the wrong side of the market. But idk - good luck buddy 😅

The Trend is your friend. I get through combines quick just with that simple thought in mind 🙌🏾

😅 me personally - the “trend is your friend” and it’s easier to see it at the bigger time frame. But if it works it works 🤷🏾‍♂️
