You may have been referring to someone else I lve watch all of his earlier videos I think at that the time he started doing YouTube he was out of the prop business.

You have to trade at least 1/2 the trades you made during your combine. i made like 180 trades in 15 days. in my live i was making max 5 a day. Its more like trying to make you trade they claim so that the account isnt sitting there cost them money. But they have redundant requirements to ensure...

Out the Oneup “funded” account trying to meet the volume requirements I thought it would be a good idea to make trades after hour since it’s really a demo account my orders won’t affect the market and I can just take a few ticks and from there I just let it go until it hit the max drawdown. Mad...

TD is horrible for futures $7 a round trip versus at most around $5 at any other introducing broker not to mention the datafeed delay in TD. yeah sure if your profitable commission dont matter much but a large majority of traders arent profitable so $1-$4 savings is huge

I prefer Jigsaw

I just realized with stage 5 they have detailed analysis report on demo trading and also the Jigsaw platform now allows sim to be used and their is a ranking system in their analysis reports so technically i could pay myself the combine fee and just duplicate the rules myself this could be an...

No just volume observing bids/offers reactions. I have delta VWAP also but mostly price action

I've personally verified that they are actually giving you capital so given you can pass the steps which i think i can given I've passed the 30k before and currently 3 days away from being able to submit for a Oneup "funded" account paying 600-700 for $3k in capital is worth an attempt . Also I...

Ideally i would wait until price reaches my area of interest(normally prior POC, LVNs) and observe price to weakness or strength and take a trade my stops are generic(6 ticks) but normally behind a cluster that I dont think we should travel back to rather than using 2xATR or something similar...

That is my issue as well I dont think Im an expert but I really dont consider other peoples areas of interest but since Im using volume profile I find mine do end up matching some of his a bit. Im looking forward to more of the trader talks, AMAs etc than the daily chatroom and levels. There is...

Decided to do the reset Thursday Tuesday and Wednesday I have morning meetings so I shouldn't be trading futures those days. My bias is short for the day at least for a retest of ES 78 using SPY options to take that trade. No economic data today.

I agree for me it’s cheaper to do the combines I just don’t want to do a reset right now I have to reflect on my stupidity today how’s I let myself blew a $2k drawdown without actually losing $2k

4/2/18 was my first day of the 50k combine blew it the first day trading at times I knew wouldn't work for me. Ill try again at some point. I might just wait for the oneup to trade then if I blow that account up then start the topstep combine again. My SPY options daytrade was good I didnt get...

Its the same strategy with people that write naked options. Write OTM high probablity option if OTM goes ITM write even more OTM options to cover that lost and hope it doesn't go down past that strike. The OP has been extremely lucky and/or has been picking really good spots to double down when...

I might try that for my options trading.

I think its the liquidity more than the spreads if you have been trading $SPX options they arent that much different but getting out of an ITM option will be tricky at a favorable price. I have a hard enough time getting $SPY ITM options at the price I want. But if your swinging futures option...

What is c2?

I have a real account my main trading is done with options I'm learning futures. So for me topstep is actually cheaper as I said I spent around 800. I attempted 5 or 6 times 2 full price 3 resets and I got 1500 to trade. In one of my real accounts i lost $1k in 2 days after that loss i realized...

The same way i had to reset 3x in step 2 not waiting for areas, fighting the clear direction trading before my optimal time, trading while not focused on trading.
