How many times are you going to post that link?
Did you get a funded account with OneUp or TST?

the first $5000 is 100% I think no matter what the split you pick.

The withdraw limit is something like TST FTP, you are still trading demo until you reach the withdraw limit. I have received my funded account last week and only traded 1 day because of the holidays. The only sad this is, by accident i ended up with a 50% split instead of an 80%. I asked oneup if i could upgrade and they said no problem, however once i completed the evaluation account i got a message the upgrade wasn't valid since this was only for evaluation accounts that haven't been traded before.
I asked my funding partner if it would be possible to negotiate about the profit split % after some time of profitable trading, however this was declined.
My contract also had 1 rule not mentioned anywhere on the website of OneUp, a rule which i am not to happy about. So i must say i am a bit disappointed so far.
I am definitely stopping my account after i withdrew the first 5K, i am not going to give away 50% of my profits ...

That site is the goto for any course that I thought about taking.

Wrong, with the 50% split you get 100% of the first 5K and with the 80% split you get 100% of the first 8K.
However that was not the point here, i never wanted the 50% split in the first place, the problem is they allowed me to upgrade and then canceled it after they found out i was going to achieve the evaluation goals.

I got what you were saying. I got the impression that One Up would do something like if they could ban me for asking if they are actually funding live accounts. Its like they are not confident in the combine business strategy.

I am currently in a funded account, my guess is my orders will go live once i get over the withdrawal threshold.
So far no real troubles with OneUp, only a little bit disappointed with the account upgrade situation.
I will have to start a new evaluation with 80% split once i hit 2000$ in my current account, this way i can withdraw the 100% 5K and start a new evaluation account with 80% split.

The extra rule OneUp never mentioned seems te be something the funded partner decided so there is nothing OneUp can do about that. Even if i knew it before i started i still would have picked OneUp over TST.

Oneups rules are definitely more favorable to the trader than TST's especially the fact that they will pay you real money for trading a demo account when you first get funded and the 15 day min trading 1 stage combine

Hi Folks, wondering if i can get some feedback from those guys who have gone live with OneUp. I've read all the info on their site and spoken to their helpdesk team but the answers seem very opaque about the live account and where funding comes from. My understanding is that once you pass the evaluation, you will be put in contact with the funders and a contract will be signed. Would really love to hear from guys who have gone live, what happened for them - and also if they are able to use MT4 in the Live accounts? Many thanks. James

Supported platforms are on their website.
Once you pass the evaluation account you email OneUp, they send your results to the funding partner and they contact you. From them you receive a questionnaire, just some basic questions. After the questionnaire you receive the funded trader contract, you read it, you sign it and then when you receive the account info you are ready to go. The process for me took 4 business day's.
