MT5 is not shit mate... most nimble mobile app and you can run 30 x 64 bit MT5 on a single bare metal server with no sweat. It will take 5+ years until there is an ecosystem even close to what Metaquotes has.
@AAbandzFx3
I don't know what you are talking about at all, I see new and better firms rising up that will be ridiculously better than the ones going away
@fernandowavesfx
Yep. Same with Bitcoin. Pure art what went down today.
Going so low it's not even funny. Look at BTC on the daily and tell me that's not an MMXM in the making going to mega puke beneath last years low range into 5-10k

you might get your US indices crash continuation now.

That was a true example of being rewarded for bad behaviour LOL.

I messed up but I'm OK. 8 losers in a row! But 1% each, lost 8% in one of my accounts. Actually proud given what I would have done in a previous life. Will be sane again come monday. Traded like shit today but I traded for tomorrow.

A prop trader is technically a freelance contractor. I don't understand US regulation culture but how could that ever be affected i.e. trading for a UK regulated firm, or non regulated, as example, you are performing a work duty per contract.

Make sure you always use :
- your own bare metal server in the cloud
- a static / floating static IP adress
- a desktop copier like ea-coder local trade copier
do not use online copiers. your own infrastructure, all the reciepts, can prove all at any time
@BlackwatchXX
@PlatosTrades
Some advice for you
@PlatosTrades
:
1: Only buy 5K prop accounts.
2: Under no circumstances trade your own capital.
3: Get bigger accounts from the 5K profits.
4: Never, ever deviate from this plan and you can make it starting over from zero.

@Romeotpt
4 days a month is boring for us who truly enjoy intraday trading. I think it is immature sillyness to try position your personal TF style as better. An intraday model can be 10 minutes a day on 20 lots in eurusd and done for the day. That sure ain't enslavement to charts.

I think the grand canyon that forms between us and others, even the entrepreneurs, artists etc, is in part the fact that we exist in a mental space of an unlimited stream of endless opportunity. And....!!! No sales, no teams meetings, no product, no meetings, etc. We just trade.

I mean, the story makes perfect sense, honestly it does.

@AtpTrades
100% agree. This is what I do and once I discovered the magic of it I very quickly shut out my thoughts of 1:5, 1:10. Closest target possible, rinse and repeat. I sleep great. I don't even have a youtube or audience, nor do I want one, so why was I bothering?
Also noteworthy is financial applications. Futures trading API's via Rithmic are C++ or C#. cTrader & Ninjatrader use C# as custom extensions, MT4/MT5 API's C++ / C#, not "script" like TradingView pine, C#/.NET is proper software engineering language.

It is clear to the entire twitter that you are not a trader, you are a gambler. What makes you think you can trade 9 lots with 2.5k of max daily loss? No trader will do this. Only a degenerate gambler will do this. You should be trading 0. something!
Done for the day. $20k day across all accounts, broker, funded prop and challenge accounts.

@Jimmyjude13
yeah... best to observer the initial carnage from the sidelines. If one wants the CPI excitement, just watching it is enough, being in it is most of the time emotionally and psyhiologically unhealthy
@isaacthequach
No that's not why. This is not the propfirms fault. It's terrible planning on his behalf. The reason he can not "feed his family" and "lost it all" is he *BET IT ALL* on trading. In what world is it sane to have family and switch to only trading without a massive warchest first??
@epfregnews
Just wanted to sincerely thank you mate. 2-3 weeks or so ago you warned us and suggested we should wait with investing in prop accounts for a few weeks. I was going to plunge in about $5k in challenges from [insert household brands here that lost their MT5], firms I thought I…
@MattLCEO
This is my wish for 2024. This is for ALL firms, not just your firm (that I do deem to be excellent). Do the industry a new big service and bring back minimum trading days Matt. ONLY gamblers want it and you know it. 10 minimum days, minimum.
And also please educate people that…
@epfregnews
Q: So when is the ideal time to stop a trader from phase progressing? Assuming unauthorized trading practices It seems to me it's better to stop a trader before funded than at payout? Assuming trade style does not change firms detect and cut at phase 1 seems ideal?
@isaacthequach
Cut your size in half or only trade half of your account.
Do not treat that amount of max drawdown like a single 100k challenge.
This is when you need to rethink risk imho.
I'm running (a lot) $, half funded, half phase 2 / 1, and personal, and 0.5% per trade based on max…
@TraderWarner
@Khldfx
That said, custom builds are and always will be very cool especially if they work and you can ride them like the beast they can be. Unless that prop tech provider has a really top tier SDK (I doubt it), it's also limited to what you can do. Which could eventually matter!!
@tradermike1234
Yes you can but the price action is 10x less granular due to the size of what a tick is... if the 1M chart is important to you, you really lose a lot of insight and feel and tickling of your intuition. A valid comparison is listening to full frequency CD quality music or Tidal…
@thetitansglobal
I also had this thought a week ago that the future of prop trading has zero fees but also zero gamblers and only aspiring and minted professional traders. Much tougher risk management as well as yolo gen prop firm darwinism happening on a scale almost seen before in remote prop.
@KojoForex
That would be a sick competition actually. If you are flat for longer than one minute, you fail the challenge. You are not allowed to hedge, even across pairs. Stop losses not allowed. 5 days, fixed reasonable risk, highest pnl wins.
@Romeotpt
What on earth makes you think we would not have financial markets after 2030? Sure, I can see that the consumers may not use domestic currencies but a new financial layer, but even then Forex would most likely exist for the financial world.
Companies would exist, so we would…
100% of all prop accounts profits are going towards building the personal account along with bigger effort from income side too. Prop prio shifting towards real capital where possible.
Demo capital still nesseceary evil but the conflict of interest just doesn't cut it anymore.
@thefundedtrader
This is what I'm thinking.. If you truly are serious about this you would:
1: Lower the leverage to 1:10, approve 1:30 on individual result basis.
2: Enforce minimum 15 trading days on phase 1 and 10 days on phase 2.
If you keep the rules as the current industry standard…
This is what career shift guidance should look like. Other firms, take notice.

Having worked on many industrial IT mission critical systems, I can assure you that what ever that algo is, it's not a 5000 line script. The hitachi powe grid systwm delivering 220V to your socket was 8 million lines of code with 150 engineers. Some code 30 years old.

Medelklassen elimineras över tid när lågkonjunkturen smäller till ovanpå räntor, inflationen, skattetrycket, börsnedgång, bostadspris ned 35-40% från peak. Ekonomisk köttkvarn och den största värdeöverföringen i världshistorien.

Pro tip cure for overtrading I just realized: Place your trade to scratch the itch and immediately hedge it. Your PnL won't move but it will feel like you are in a trade. Come back to the charts later (what ever later is for you, 30 min, 4h, tomorrow, etc) and chances are good…

Blackrock and vanguard also happen to control the member banks of the US FED. I think since Trump the Treasury controls the FED though, not the banks but who knows if that is still the case.

I am senior software engineer by profession. Worked on power grids, jet fighters, Robotics etc. I coded a real time custom unoverridable, cloud based rule enforces 5000 lines in C# that can make prop be darwinex but they don't want to talk to me. One said, would ruin the model.

Yes I agree, I only meant on individual account basis. Also you can scale horizontally. I use prop. Just think that i would rather have 100% max drawdown and smaller balance than 10% drawdown and big mostly useless balance.
@Iambosslady9
It's all about US traders can not trade OTC products. Regardless of tech, plattform, locations.
US CFTC can not go after the prop offshore but they can go after their plattform and infra providers. And they pass on the pressure to their non compliant customers, brokers or inhouse…

Var in igår till ett IT partner och konsult-uthyrar bolag jag jobbat åt förut. 50 anställda. Gått som tåget i 20 år. Plötsligt likviditetskris. Alla inplanerade påbyggnadsprojekt frysta. 100% fastighetsautomation... Säljarna får knappt nån att svara. Huvuden yxas nog i oktober.
Instant funding is an strange prop model.
It has zero advantage from a bang for the buck perspective vs your own brokerage account. Scaling is only marketing. Zero difference, max drawdown growth is only from your gains. Prop context can bring psychological and emotional support.

Det stenvändandet är ingen ovanlig situation i skiljsmässohem där pappan sticker och mamman gör allt hon kan för att inte behöva riva upp barnens trygghet i hemmet de växt upp i. Kvinnans uppoffringar vs mannens karriärsambitioner som aldrig fick störas. Räntan blev huggkubben...
@Trader_Dante
Like me being long into CPI yesterday with 5 pip stop loss. I called it, I gambled it, I nailed it. I made a completely silly amount in no time, stopped trading for the day and promptly spent the rest of the day giving it all back but 10%. Well at least I worked hard for it!
@tradermike1234
I recognize the writing style from my own trading rants that are too long to post on here and I'm not yet committed to building anything here. Only someone who has been beaten to a pulp by the markets and came back from it and beat it to a pulp can write this way. Well done.
@I_Am_The_ICT
Everything becomes a lot "bigger" and it's thus like the chart is starting from zero with much fewer relevant historical reference points meaning the first weeks are going to be incredibly hard to read.

There is nothing like it on the market today.
Server side, rule based, real time risk management.

Sloppy trading all day but ended +1R eventually. Just grateful to end the day above water after that moonshot day yesterday. Funded props in mffx and fundedpips about +$600 total, +$2500 in phase 1/2's. Closing in on aqua and fidelcrest funded, hopefully next week.
