    Chatroom gurus claiming to have $100k days -- total BS?

    Nope not saying that at all. For all I know the posted statements are all of the accounts he has. At least he DOES post the statements and no one else does that - that I am aware of

    Chatroom gurus claiming to have $100k days -- total BS?

    Easy one account is on a laptop and the other account is on another computer so you are logged into 2 different accounts on same trading platform- nothing to it

    Chatroom gurus claiming to have $100k days -- total BS?

    I think Ross Cameron is the only one that shows statements so cudos for him for that as he is about the only one who does. However—-Whether those statements are ALL of the statements of every single brokerage account he owns or controls with every broker is another story. Now if the “trading...

    Earn 2 Trade the gauntlet

    Yeah probably the better choice is FTMO rather than Apteros as it is more clear cut and if you pass you get the same funding deal no matter what your metrics were to pass Unfortunately it’s Slim Pickings in the tryout/funding world and its overly littered with gotchas

    Earn 2 Trade the gauntlet

    Yeah the Regular Gauntlet sucks in my opinion as well. It’s a great math formula for tryout company but in my opinion an absolutely abysmal math formula for the trader. there are much better deals out there than the regular gauntlet the problem is people make impulse buys and don’t research...

    Earn 2 Trade the gauntlet

    Yes - in my opinion trailing max drawdowns that trail unrealized profit are moronic Topstep uses them Earn2Trade (mini gauntlet) uses them and also most everyone else in this industry uses them EXCEPT FOR SMB Capital - (unfortunately no longer does tryouts) ApterosTrading.com - run by Merritt...

    Earn2Trade Founder Charged With Fraud

    I thought you had asked in another post who owned Helios Nevertheless since Earn2Trade has said they refer people who passed the tryout to Helios then it makes sense that anyone considering taking the E2T gauntlet tryout or mini gauntlet tryout should research who the owners/managing members...

    Earn2Trade Founder Charged With Fraud

    Info about Helios is available to the general public you simply need to go to Wyoming Secretary of State website and look at the various filings under the history tab https://wyobiz.wyo.gov/Business/FilingDetails.aspx?eFNum=084161175226138093216184064128054183061068043204

    TopstepTrader Q & A

    I don’t think you will find a shop that will accept your free thinkorswim sim trading history and fund you. They typically want 12 months to 24 months of real account trading history with real money on the line not someone who is a TOS “free” sim trader who has never dealt psychologically with...

    Earn2Trade Founder Charged With Fraud

    Paper trading a free sim account = worthless. No skin in the game. Not the same trading decisions as when money is on the line There is only a minor benefit in sim trading for free and that is perhaps trading on it a few days to just get used to a new trading platform. Other than that there...

    Earn2Trade Founder Charged With Fraud

    But also keep in mind that with live accounts Funded solely with your own money that there still is the possibility that you could make a bad trade and end up losing more money than you had in your account and then you are sued for the difference. Although brokers have some safeguards in place...

    My attempt to earn a funded account with Earn2Trade

    Well if you cant pass a tryout challenge over and over again then most likely you cant trade your own money in your own brokerage acct profitably on a consistent basis either. All of those people who couldnt pass a challenge--imagine how much they would have lost of their own money if they were...

    I dont think overnight applies on ES emini and NQ emini if you open you initial position at 6pm EST (Globex) and trade til 3:59 the next day and close out the position before 4pm EST. You only have overnight maintenance apply if you hold a position past 4pm EST into the Globex that opens at 6pm...

    My attempt to earn a funded account with Earn2Trade

    If only 8% pass then here is how it works out (FTMO doesn't charge per month for tryout and doesn't offer paid resets - you get a free reset if you don't pass but at least ended with a profit of $1 or more and didn't violate daily loss limit or max loss limit but simply ran out of time. In both...

    My attempt to earn a funded account with Earn2Trade

    I think you have to look at it this way if the account size you are trying out has a $3300 daily loss limit and a $4500 trailing drawdown then as long as you spend no more than $3,300 in trying to obtain that account in monthly fees and resets then you are still ok if you can pass in less than...
