Days like today, you can easily catch 40 to 50 ES points trading 1 or 2 contracts - that will move your rapidly to getting funded.
Curious about the withdraw, looks like its been a week. Just wondering if they give you a time frame (of if you did get it already). I vaguely remember reading something about taking 7-10 days... but I could be confusing that with the time to get funded (for people who jump straight to funded accts).
It took 10 business days from the day you "requested a profit withdrawal" to reach your bank account? That's insane
Agree with SelfMadeDude, that is a bit insane. The whole idea of a bank wire is it's pretty much instant, at least same day. ACH 3 days. No reason it should take them 2 weeks to process funds. I know its their rules, just seems on the far end of excessive. One last question if you don't mind - do they reflect in your account that the funds are out right after you request or still show as in there until sent? Just wondering if they tempt people to trade with the funds.
They remove the funds from your balance and then it takes 10 business days. The company is upfront with everything. There is nothing shady going on. During the last 2 very volatile sessions though, trading has been suspended for funded traders but that is a good thing because the ES is moving 10 handles in seconds and everyone involved could get blown out.
