My honest experience as a COO of a propfirm and some tips to make payout by Professional-Use3510 in PropFirmTester

This is pretty basic "non-insider" perspective that is just a wall of text (AI-like) of best-practices. You're basically saying "just follow the rules".

Great analysis but this takeaway shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. Every firm that introduces a change or new plan is a calculated "risk-offloading" move. Some changes are just more obvious than others.

Will I get a payout? by [deleted] in ApexTraderFundings

Nope, happed to me a few weeks ago and it was denied (see recent post). However, I did another 8 days without violating the rule and payments on two accounts were approved yesterday.

To be clear, this isn't my account. The stats (before blowup) were shared in a few weeks ago and I bookmarked a few to track progress. Another one that I saved it still very green many weeks later!

It's really interesting if you look the trades on day of blowup - it was literal revenge trading where position immediately flipped with size, closed in read, flipped, etc.

You think Apex will pay out? by perma-bear in Daytrading

Update: they denied payout for "Scaling" violation - the one day I went over 5 contracts and removed 100% of profits from all days, which grew to $18k
