Starting today (Monday, October 1), Maverick74 and marketsurfer will begin a 10-Day Combine (http://www.topsteptrader.com/Combine). The account parameters are $50K / 5 lot buying power / $1K daily loss limit. They both have 30 calendar days to complete the 10-Day Combine.
The Combine objective is to profit $3,500 and follow the Scouting Criteria: http://www.topsteptrader.com/scoutingcriteria. If at the end of Combine, if either trader (or both) have met the Combine objective, they will be provided with a fully-funded trading account (no capital contribution required) http://www.topsteptrader.com/fundedtrader.
On this thread, we will be posting both Maverick74 and marketsurfer's trade reports (this is normally private for all TopstepTrader recruits, but they have both agreed to let us post their reports). Both Maverick74 and marketsurfer will also be keeping a journal of their Combine experience on this thread.
