Thank you for your advice. I agree with everything you say. I said combine because that's what I call all these challenges from prop firms like the gauntlet, etc. I understand it might be confusing.

Ah, this changes everything. Then I must say you're doing a nice job. You've convinced me to pick you when I decide to try a combine. You should make it clearer the part of the monthly profit, because I know of several traders that came to the same conclusion as me, having each read it...

Unless Earn2trade corrects me, because they take 20% of whatever amount exceeds the initial balance. In my example, even though for that month we lost 200$, we were still up 1240$ from the initial balance of 25000$ for example. So they take the 20% of 1240$ assuming its a profit.

People is constantly focusing on the wrong thing. The problem is not the DD (which is not entirely bad since it's not trailing), but the way Helios takes its profits. But how are you going to build a cushion if profits are withdrawn by Helios monthly? This forces you to also take profits...

It's different because profits will influence the stock price (even if it takes some time). At some point in the future, not being able to make profits will make the stock price go down. However, if they make say 90% profits of commissions, it doesn't matter as long as they keep their word on...

As long as they keep their word and agreed rules, it shouldn't matter where a prop company makes money.

For those who haven't experienced the constant anxiety of not knowing if you'll be able to pay rent and food year after year, the fact that money brings happiness is looked like the thought of a greedy person. Being more specific, it's not happiness exactly what money brings, but peace of mind...

There will always be exploitable niches, whether from market inefficiencies or taking advantage of recurring activity patterns. ML/AI makes some type of trades unprofitable for a human, but creates new opportunities if the human can learn to take advantage of the algo behaviour. Later new algos...

It would be great to add some indicators to Thinkorswim and MT4, especially if they're not common. Thanks
