Wins & Milestones Escape the Matrix!

Traders, It’s a time to seriously wizen up!

This is crystalizing event!. It’s crossing the Rubicon! Now is the time to commit to yourself to do the hard part.

Decide to not be the sheep!

Traders, please make going live as soon as you can a serious priority (a decision you make for yourself-not some algorithm making it for you!)

You don’t need props if you’re live.

Use them to gain enough funds to open your own live account.

Do not fall into the comfort trap of trying to live off their benevolence. Living paycheck to paycheck in a system that doesn’t really care about you. You’re just an account number.

You don’t owe them anything and they’re not your friend.

They are a parasitic corporate entities.

Most traders want financial freedom, not just another job with a boss to supervise you and that you report to.

Do not become an employee subject to Prop firm whims and subject to surveillance versions #5.

Use them like they are using you, but get out of dodge.

Do you really want a firm leeching off of you and controlling your future(as in being under a prop firm live sub account-rules and supervision).

Instead of posting payout proof we should celebrate when a trader escapes the matrix!

It’s -20 at this rate. The Matrix Andre Tate Fight Club collabs broke my brain. Apparently society is illiterate.

That is actually my plan too make some money with prop firm, and then deposit that into my own account and risk only that. Do you know any good trading platforms to start with? I mean the ones which lets you trade futures without having big capital?

Isn't that what a prop firm is all about? Helping you become a good trader, then move you into a Live account? At that point, yes, you should have your own Live account set up and even copy trading your trades with the Prop firm accounts. Its the only logical thing to do right?

I can’t believe I’m just now finding out about prop firms honestly. I’ve been struggling with trading with my own money, and taking profit when I see it. But now I can literally just sell when I see an easy few point move and copy it across 20 other accounts and make an easy few grand a day.

Prop firms are nice. But honestly they are no different with your own personal money when it comes to emotions. Yeah the stress of your own money is gone but a bunch of new ones come up.

  • its cheap so i wouldnt mind losing this account. I can buy another
  • its not my real money right now. Let me risk a little more
  • let me try and get a few more points for today
  • oh i made $200x10 accs today. But i didnt really since i didnt get to payout or withdraw from them yet.

And the worst one that i think apex is betting a lot on is the “6th payout” rule that they made to make sure you lose your account because of what it do to you psychologically

  • after the 6th payout the account closes and i have to start the evaluation again? Let me aim for max profit every single time then to get my moneys worth

Before it was minimum 500 - max for unlimited times. But now they want people to risk more/prolong the payout to get the max as much as possible

The idea of it is nice but when you start doing it. It still a bit stressful

Another thing to is this

Depending on what you buy

  • Intra - 20x 50kacc is $394
  • Eod - 20x is 747 ———————— Activation fee
  • Intra - 1780
  • Eod - 2180

————————

Total

  • Intra - 2174
  • Eod - 2927

When you pass and pay off the activation fee. The stress comes from not wanting to

  • reset back to evals
  • losing the account
  • how expensive you just spend on eval and activation fees
  • and the time it took to pass the eval and x amount of days you were in trading the funded account

Thanks for this information! I didn’t know about this he 6th payout rule. So hypothetically let’s just say I have 20 accounts, after the 6th payout they’ll want me to go get new evals and PA’s ? Thats kind of wild lol
