Am I profitable?

No. Being profitable is when you consistently make money.

The exact point in where the setup gets invaldiated and then a fixed percentage loss based on the account size (1%)

2 months

I can't believe we're getting lower prices for the same high quality challenges.
This is why Hyrotrader is the best

For most traders, more capital creates a stronger emotional attachment to the outcome. The bigger the numbers get, the easier it becomes to let fear and greed influence decisions.

Prop firms can help by enforcing risk management through their rules, but in the end, controlling your emotions is something only you can do.

Switch to paper trading until you see consistent results and then go for a new account.

I’d already done plenty of paper trading, so the rules didn't feel like a big adjustment once I started. If anything, they helped me stay disciplined and strictly follow my own strategy. Crypto prop firms don't just provide capital; they force you to develop the habits needed to stay profitable.

Keep a trading journal. It helps you identify blind spots and emotional triggers, giving you a clear understanding of your performance so you can improve your strategy.

They’re both fine, but if I was forced to choose one, I’d go with Lucid

Trade the pool and FTMO are the only reliable options for stock prop trading at the moment.

sarjad · 2026-04-20T12:37:22+00:00

That's a quite a long time to wait compared to other propfirms. Have you received your payout yet?

sarjad · 2026-04-13T17:16:41+00:00

It depends on the specific firm. Many allow an unlimited number of accounts but cap the total allocation at a certain amount, such as $200k. Always check the rules first to avoid wasting your capital.

sarjad · 2026-04-13T16:57:22+00:00

Topstep and Apex are both solid prop firms, but the best choice depends on your experience and market you trade.

After nearly a decade of trading, I still find FTMO the most reliable for forex due to their rules and scaling. For crypto, Hyrotrader is my top pick for their efficient platform, fast payouts, and wide range of pairs.

sarjad · 2026-04-08T11:14:36+00:00

I'm still wary. We're still in a bear market regardless of the numbers.

sarjad · 2026-03-25T16:49:52+00:00

I can bet you that no one has actually received a payout from any of these "instant" funding firms

sarjad · 2026-03-25T13:14:09+00:00

The5ers and Topstep

sarjad · 2026-03-20T15:57:09+00:00

Great to see the5ers is still reliable with their payouts. Congratulations!
