If anyone is wondering why there has been a flood of TST combines lately, there is a 75% discount to anyone who signs up and journals.
That's a wonderful opportunity. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. EDIT: Nothing about it on their website that I can see or the mails they are sending out.
Makes sense, $400 is pretty steep for less than a month on a simulator. Journaling is free advertisement for the service.
It's pretty scalable. 1000 traders at 40 is good money!!! 40,000 every 10 days. they wish. and there hasn't been a thread where the person made it past the combine. but I really do wish someone gets funded.
Actually I know several. And they don't get to keep that $40 if you breakeven. All this has been rehashed before on older threads. Don't take your trading frustrations out on this company. Work on yourself. Trust me, it's wasted energy focusing on anything outside yourself.
Join a Combine. Journal your trading days. Submit to a forum. GET 70% OFF THE NEXT COMBINE OF YOUR CHOICE. Our goal at TopstepTrader is for you to develop into a consistent, disciplined trader and earn a funded account. When you journal your daily trading, your streaming consciousness, and what you did right and wrong, you're creating an invaluable record for yourself. And when a community can share those journals - it brings a global group of traders together for easy strategy sharing, discussion, personal development and more. So here's the deal - to encourage daily tracking, we want you to journal a Combine. We are going to do this on a rolling basis, so we're limiting the initial phase to the first 20 traders with approved forum links. If you're interested in tracking your trading on a forum, please email support@topsteptrader.com to ask for details. Please put "70% Combine Journal Discount" in the subject line. So what happens if you pass your journaled Combine or earn a rollover? Great! In that case, we'll credit you 70% back of the Combine that you purchased and journaled. "Public journaling is a great tool in not only developing the trader but the entire trading community." - Michael Patak, CEO Please call us at 312.252._9490 or email us at support@topsteptrader.com with any questions.

I know, I hear ya. "Work on yourself. Trust me, it's wasted energy focusing on anything outside yourself." this is good advice for sure.
