I'm not sure you'll switch to a funded account this way APEX occasionally has a promotion that takes one day to switch But usually they want consistent profit for 7 days I don't have an answer in your case whether it will be approved or not I myself thought about doing it but I don't know if it will be approved
I've been funded with multiple Topstep accounts and have taken 5 figure payouts. I'm very comfortable with them and know what I need to do. If I were you' I'd stay away from Apex. I traded with them and as soon as I requested my first payout I was denied and shut down. Apex is a Scam and they are going to cause the US government to ruin the prop opportunity eventually because of their scammy anti-consumerism. CFTC regulation within 24 months is likely.
Apex is definitely a problematic company I agree with you on every word But despite that I personally know people who have withdrawn tens of thousands of dollars in profit from there with zero investment I only work on futures contracts and my broker is ironbeam where I trade for real money I am practicing a unique trading system and I do it through Apex and my trading system is Sierra Chart Right now Apex is an option, there are a few other companies like this, they are all garbage, they work on the casino method, but right now it is an option that works But If they disappear with Apex, it won't bother me too much What funded account are you using?
Following. Anxious to learn anything this guy wants to share. Clearly intelligent, experienced and level-headed (via "ES" thread posts). Humble, but pulling multiple five figure withdrawals from prop isn't something just anyone can step up and do on the norm. Hope you continue to crush it sir. Regards.
You're done as a trader before you even started, with that attitude. You are going at it the wrong way, man. That is a gambling mentality of someone at a Blackjack table. Trading is NOT gambling. Learn that lesson! You will learn it by doing your requisite 10,000 hours of screen time. This ain't a get-rich-quick scheme. You gots to put in the WORK!
Some days I'm the crusher. Other days the crushee. That's trading, imo. Some days you're the roadrunner. Other days, the coyote. Like the coyote, you have to get crushed just enough to relearn a lesson, and yet be able to then peal yourself right back out of that hole and get back at it for the next episode. Roadkill = a cocky trader. Show me a cocky trader, and I'll show you a cocky "trader."
I realize I didn't update the P&L from Friday. I added $180.02 in profits on Friday. I need another $965 to pass the combine and get funded.
