You can't trade on the live sim forever, sooner or later you have to go to what they call the live account. That's why i said funded live account, not live sim account ...
Yes, on this point you are right. After 5 k profit you have to change to live account. And the DD just trailing to the starting balance, that means you have at this point 5 k drawdown with no trailing!
You claimed money was locked away Which is true. Even within your twice per month claim (which I'm 99 % sure is incorrect). If you make $20K of profits it will take you 4 months to withdraw them even if you could withdraw the full amount twice per month. You thought i was the owner of Apex I was joking around, but seriously, your behavior is starting to be suspicious here. You're really going out of your length to defend a company you claim to have zero interest in.
That's how the trailing works on almost all companies, it trails to the starting balance and then stops.
If you select the Live sim first, make 5 k profit and shift to the live account you have never a live trailing drawdown. This is a fact! I went this way with e2t.
Sure, I'll reach out to them to proof you wrong, apparently you can't do it on your own so i will hold your hand, only because it is hilarious how one can be so convinced and be so wrong at the same time. Are you a flat earther? Would make sense.
Assuming you're right it is poor grammar to state a maximum monthly limit and then that maximum can be withdrawn twice. If so, $2750 is not the monthly limit, but $5500. Regardless, answer me this. You have $20K of profits. How many months will it take you to withdraw the full amount? The answer shows that I'm still correct in my original claim, i.e., your money is locked up as opposed to competing firms which lets you withdraw in full. That was my main point, but you're getting lost in technicalities.
You said it takes 6 months to withdraw, which isn't true. It's a maximum withdrawal limit, not a maximum monthly withdrawal limit, sometimes technicalities are important . You already know the answer to your question. Depending on the account the max withdrawal size for the first 3 months is limited, then unlimited. I don't know all the withdrawal limits, but i would assume 4 months. Stupid rule, sure, as i have said before ..., but doesn't make them scammers.
