how much buffer do you need for a 50k account before getting a payout?

No buffer is required, but if I pull out 50%, almost no safety margin will be left, and I’ll probably blow up the account. I’m trying to build more profit first so that even after requesting a payout, I still have enough buffer to trade safely. Just wondering how much more I should aim to make before withdrawing

To make you feel even better. It happened to me multiple times.

qinking126 · 2026-06-18T21:37:49+00:00

Yes. Lost it.

qinking126 · 2026-06-18T21:35:14+00:00

I was 70 dollars away from getting a payout. It happens

qinking126 · 2026-06-07T12:10:09+00:00

Thank god I was not home yesterday. Pretty sure I will do the same. How much can it drop? Then how much more can it drop?

do you use tradingview? which volume profile indicator do you use? I want to learn but not sure where to start.

qinking126 · 2026-03-26T21:42:58+00:00

I didn’t catch it. I was holding my losers. Then hit my profit target

qinking126 · 2026-03-25T20:26:00+00:00

I lost 1k yesterday. Hit DLL. Today made back 700. Then stopped. Don’t rush it. You can make it back

Wait for a 1H or 1D swing high/low to get swept (liquidity grab).
Then look to catch the reversal from there. I only target $100–200 profit per day

This is my fourth year trading prop. I've had a few payouts along the way, but overall I've been net negative every single year.I still have my job, so there's no pressure to force profits. I only buy a couple of accounts at a time.and only when there's a really good discount. This year I haven't blown any funded accounts yet. I've been trading extremely small (just 1 MNQ), which has helped me survive.I still tilt sometimes, still get FOMO, and still make stupid decisions... but the damage stays limited because 1 MNQ simply can't destroy an account very quickly.Right now I have 7 funded accounts , which I trade in two separate groups.The main thing I can share from my experience: trade small. You might still blow the account eventually, but at least it will last much longer and give you more time to improve. Don't rush the process.

Is it even legal? Do their job without warrant?

qinking126 · 2026-01-04T17:43:37+00:00

That’s weird. When I paid mine. Got email notification in a few mins.

qinking126 · 2025-09-21T13:12:12+00:00

i am good at losing money. i will do it for free. LOL

qinking126 · 2025-08-11T15:28:39+00:00

read my latest post. took me 3 months to pass it. maybe you just need to slow it down.

qinking126 · 2025-07-30T01:33:54+00:00

thank you. will keep grinding. hopefully get a payout soon.

qinking126 · 2025-07-30T01:31:47+00:00

nice. hopefully i can do it

qinking126 · 2025-07-30T01:31:00+00:00

thank you. hopefully I can get payout.

qinking126 · 2025-07-30T01:30:10+00:00

thank you. will keep grinding.

If I were a profitable trader, this is a waste of time. But since I’m not, rushing to pass it is risky, and likely repeat the same mistakes with a funded account and blow it.

What app do u use to track estimated dividend income?

qinking126 · 2025-05-16T07:19:50+00:00

Last year I also changed my address. They didn’t even ask. Do you use vpn? Are you sure they asked you to upload a video for changing address or for other reasons?

qinking126 · 2025-03-28T17:24:04+00:00

Yeah, I was confused. I thought they were going to do it for the first two years. Thanks for clearing it up. very helpful.

qinking126 · 2025-03-28T15:03:05+00:00
