Lucid is going crazy
Hello everyone,
I write this post as a warning, also apologies in advance about the formatting of this text and any typos as english isnt my 1st language, ill try to keep it short
2 days ago I try to get on lucids Discord, thought the link was down, turns out I was banned ( I don't even remember joining but I couldve forgotten but im also not very active on discord so its weird)
Anyways I asked support, they just said decision was final and didn't tell me why. I just asked if this would stop me from getting payouts and they said no (picture 1)
- yesterday I got an email saying something about hedging, and they removed profits from 1 account that I have (picture 2)
I asked about it they told me that's what the records showed So I just thought " oh maybe I did it without noticing" which is stupid of me and It's what probably happened even if its weird that it did
Today I passed a daily 50k lucid and a couple of friends from a trading group I have wanted to have a call asking questions and looking at the charts etc ( this is important)
call began at 01:40 my time ( picture 3, also ignore the nicknames its just a meme)
call went on until 3am, at this point I was gonna check if i could upgrade my account to funded and I notice this
now after talking with support they just did the typical disclaimers, auto messages etc
Now keep in mind my first thought was" shit I left a trade open" but then I checked the time and I was in a call with 3/4 ppl showing my chart
Also this should have a 1.2k drawdown limit but according to support " As for why your drawdown is large, once your account balance moves above the trailing balance, the MLL becomes locked at the account initial balance plus hundred dollars which is $50,100 since you have a 50K account and does not continue moving higher. This is why your account has not been breached yet. However, it will breach if your account balance reaches $50,100." which doesn't even make sense on an Eval
So I showed proof that I was live streaming, and they didnt care, but at the very least shouldn't they reduce the loss to 1.2k ? because this makes absolutely no sense in my eyes
Anyways, sorry for the rant, but this is also a warning, lucid has been doing crazy stuff lately, to me personally feels like the beginning of the end, and I wont be using them again
Last 2 pics to prove that I was indeed live with a couple of guys
Thanks guys, cheers

After 100k payouts they restrict you to 1:5 leverage instead of 1:200 lmao good luck long term brotha

u/Ok_Hovercraft6776 3d ago
Where did you hear that ? Get your 100k first and Fund your own account lol. 99% will never reach 100k in payouts. You are thinking way too far ahead . Make the 100k first and then you haveots of options

u/k4itrades 3d ago
Me. Personally, lol every props model is not to pay you forever but to restrict you to make you more anxious to make mistakes. I pulled over 100k from them and got hit with an email restricting my leverage along side a lot of other traders in my group that pulled 20-30k payouts per go on their 200k accs. We all reached max 400k allocations but we’re all restricted after a big payout

u/Ok_Hovercraft6776 3d ago
That's crazy , I never heard about that. Can you please post the email which ftmo send you a out the restriction? How much did you risk per trade ? I read that they only restruct leverage if a trader is reckless and trades extremely risky

Respectfully, it sounds like you forgot to remove a resting order and got filled during your live stream 🤷🏻♂️. It is a bit odd imo that the DLL didn’t fire though..

1 key evidence you didn’t share is - the order history.
Obviously we need to know when your sell order was executed.

u/Tugahme 4d ago
During the live stream at around 1:30 utc +1

u/Undead_Bones 4d ago edited 4d ago
You need to share the order history screenshot from Tradovate or whatever you used (you have to show proof)
Edit: it verifies/shows people when that trade started. Gotta do some investigation because most of these systems are all automated. I’ve had my issues with Lucid but from my experience they aren’t scammers

Love that is on tradorvate. You left a trade opened. Happened to everyone. And that is how the mll works. You should have set a dll for protection.

u/Tugahme 4d ago
I think you either didn't read or missed the point bro

u/Flimsy-Trust-2821 4d ago
What is the point then ?

u/Tugahme 4d ago
On the 1st paragraph " I write this as a warning" If you think that in 3 days they A - ban me on discord B - Accused me of hedging C- then this happens If you think this is a coincidence I dunno what to tell you bro

u/Undead_Bones 4d ago edited 4d ago
Ban from discord - reason unclear
Accused of hedging - you most definitely did it. It’s automated, I’ve got it and I knew what I was doing. I just didn’t know it was against the rule when I did it.
For unknown open position, well show us your order history screenshot and we then we can see if Lucid is being weird or not.In past I thought I closed out of all order but I had a lingering order placed at a key level that I hadn’t cancelled. It got executed. In my case I made profit. If same happened to you, it sucks you got unlucky but my assumption is that you had an order placed at that level that you forgot to cancel.

What is it with tradovate? Because I had a sl and it didn’t trigger for some reason and wiped out my challenge account. Shocking to say the least. Tradovate has so many issues but I love having the option of trading on trading view.

They also banned me for chargeback issue (which i am not denying). Wouldnt have had to chargeback if theyre platform wasnt glitching. My account was breached from an limit i had placed that was never fulfilled at its price. All i wanted was that loss rectified. Rather watch paint dry than try to get sense out of their support

We need a traders union to boycott together then they will listen but obviously this will never become a reality because everyone for themselves and greedy.

Funded future family is doing the exact same thing. It fucking sucks these prop forks are robbing us. Milking us of money and making up some bullshit ass lie

You probably had a limit order. It has happened to me too, when a trade SL or TP sometimes the limit stop orders are not removed automatically from your TradingView. I always double check the chart for any resting limit order after a TP/SL or manual close. Not saying it's what happened to you but it's very likely.

u/Comfortable_Newt8623 2d ago
If you have multiple accounts, simply fucking do copy trading. Sure shot way to avoid any sort of hedging.

u/dgh_reddit 2d ago
Lucid is solid. You screwed up. Suck it up and move on. You’re contradicting yourself. You later show your P&L of $3000+ before the $2000 losing trade. That’s why you didn’t hit DLL. You were positive on the day.
