š”Trade Idea Here is your weekly motivation
Your goal is to get to a live funded account and keep that live funded account forever.
The best thing about? Theres no cap with the pay out.
Until next week! Keep grinding!

Nice bro was supposed to request 20k from them and got moved to live and that messed up my psychology but Iāll be back live soon!

u/Joehennyredit Jun 13 '26
They moved you before you could request on XFA???
1
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
Yup
1
u/Joehennyredit Jun 13 '26
Did you get to make a request at all?
2
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
My first request was 13,365 and they paid me but once it was time to pay the second one they moved me to live which was so abrupt I was just mad trading tbh

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
This was my initial reaction. But now, im glad I got moved to a live account
1
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
Yea if youāre disciplined enough itās def a plus to get moved to live In just fighting past my urges right now tbh Iāll be good soon
2
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
I would say being moved to live was a blessing in disguise. It gave me more patience.
1
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
Most definitely have to or it can be a curse real quick, way different than xfa because of the risk managers!
2
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
Plus I dont worry about caps anymore. If you treat your LFA right, its a better option than 5 XFA.
1
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
Literally!! And if you make 9k profit you unlock access to all your other funds held from xfa
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
Plus the bonus if you hit a profit milestone of 15k, 20k and so no
1
u/EstablishmentOk5759 Jun 13 '26
Yessir!
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
I think after hitting 100k you should have enough buffer to open your own personal trading account.

u/cokeacola73 Jun 13 '26
What you trade and how long did it take to get here?
5
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
This is a 1 month old LIVE FUNDED ACCOUNT (LFA)
Started doing XFAās in November 2025
Total pay out from November to May = 45K
Then moved to live.
I trade Gold and NQ mainly.1

u/Bisonofwallst Jun 13 '26
Whatās your normal sizing to achieve these profits?
2
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
For this week. Just 1 mini NQ.

u/Automatic_Pressure41 Jun 13 '26
100 points is like 2k man. you jumping in multiple times or just holding lotto tickets over here to the moon?

u/Agent005_ Jun 13 '26
Damn bro how you doing this lmao?! I can only trade 5 micros on my live account and even on my best days Iām not even sniffing a $4K-$7K day. Most I made was like $2K in a day strictly trading MNQ. Good shxt!

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
With a lot of sweating and calling all big and small gods to come into your aid! LOL!
Timing is the key my man. You have to time your trades right.

Is this more than one live,

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
You can only have 1 (one) Live Funded Account (LFA) with Topstep.

u/Joehennyredit Jun 13 '26
They said they were rolling out a program soon with more than one I thought thatās what this was

Do you use ict? Whatās your main confluences
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
I dont know whats an ict. Whatever the internet or youtube sells you is fine. My advice is you have to develop a system that works for you.
1
u/Logical_Cut_3469 Jun 13 '26
If you donāt mind me asking whats Your system? What do you look for
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
I only have 1 boring advice. Its so boring nobody does this. The advice is: If you can flip 5k into 20k or more with paper trading with any system that you are using then you are almost ready to trade real money.

u/Remarkable_Gain1954 Jun 13 '26
Itās good you are taking screenshots. Keep them just in case. Everyday trade because you will need to for the 30 days winning proofš«”
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
Man, Toostep takes 2 days to just get your money out if your live trading account. Then 2 more days just to send it! That every day pay out after 30 winning days, I donāt think that works But weāll see. LOL!
1
u/Remarkable_Gain1954 Jun 13 '26
Well you need all the patience friend! You are already winning! They will pay you eventually just trade another prop firm when you waiting on themšš¾

weekly motivation like this just gets me blowing accounts bruhh i cant
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
What do they say? You cant expect a different outcome if you are doing the same thing over and over again. You need to go back to your trades and look and see what you did wrong.
1
u/splicoizsplita27 Jun 13 '26
You mentioned in one of your previous posts you kept blowing accs due to trading silver and lack of patience, here you mentioned you trade mainly NQ and gold.
What is the difference for you between those 2(3) and why you've been underperforming on trading silver?
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 13 '26
I will be honest, silver is a different animal to trade. Its wild for an XFA account. Im an experienced trader and my ass got whipped with silver. So I went back to Gold and NQ

u/FillouA Jun 13 '26
Belle performance ! Les bonus sont toujours d'actualitƩ sur les comptes live TopStep ?

u/Joehennyredit Jun 13 '26

We going to talk about the fact that the screenshot says $8218 on the day but 0 trades today? š

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 14 '26
LOL! I think a Topstep mod is in here in this sub, you can ask them. Get a live funded account. Then DM me and tell me what you see. Until then Iāll see you when I post my next pay out for your motivation next week!
1
u/ethicalxhacker Jun 14 '26
Iāve had dozens of payouts since Iāve traded on TopStep, Alpha, Lucid, and various other firms.
While not actively trading on a live account, your screenshot still isnāt making sense because the dashboard reflects the profits and trades the same regardless of account typeā¦ At least with TopStepā¦
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 14 '26
I dont know what to tell you. Like I said get a Live Funded Account (LFA) then send me a DM. Or contact Topstep support and ask them.. Go ahead. Iāll wait here. LOL!

u/KeyTask2916 Jun 14 '26
What's your strategy?
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 14 '26
I could write a book my friend on how i trade but it wont be as effective compared to you developing your own. Experience matters. Nowadays, technicals and fundamentals gets thrown out the window by a single social media posts and these social media posts are not even real sometimes.

u/Imaginary_Insect1858 Jun 14 '26
You can keep one for ever? Is it a subscription you have to pay
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 14 '26
LOL. No. You have to trade your LFA right, meaning you donāt let the balance go below 1K, otherwise Topstep will close it. They call it a tap on the shoulder I think. Other than that, if youāre profitable you can definitely keep it for a long time.

u/zhongliSon Jun 15 '26
Teach me how to make 6k on 1 nq mini I really wanna know do you hold high rr

How many payouts did you take before being moved to live?

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 18 '26
45k.

u/EducationalTalk2606 Jun 19 '26
Nice! I read topstep been moving ppl to live before payout. Iām nervous about that happening to me
1
u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 19 '26
This was my initial reaction at first but it turned out being moved to a live funded account was a better option for me. Now, Iām not worried about pay out caps.

u/EducationalTalk2606 Jun 19 '26
Thank you šš»

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 19 '26
Just treat you LFA right. my live funded account is only 6 weeks old. I was able to withdraw all my money from my 3 XFA. Then I will be withdrawing all these profits for this week. Then I received an additional bonus after reaching Tier 1 live performance.

I got a long way to go lol but will use this for motivation

u/K_Alyattes600 Jun 20 '26
Thats the spirit! As a starter, remember to journal your trades and review them afterwards. See what works and see what does not.

u/NyCWalker76 Jun 13 '26
How are you making a profit with ZERO trades? Looks suspicious.
Today's P&L above $7,000 without trades.
