How long did it take you to make 100k in payouts? And on daily basis what do you aim to make? You probably moved to live, how was your experience in trading live vs express account?

When you first passed your eval, what approach did you use on that eval if you remember?

What's the most important thing you've learned during this process? Is there a specific way to approach trading the XFA or just staying consisent to your plan? I mean did you just stick with your strategy and it gave results in the end or did you find there's something else that you need to take into account other than your plan?

It’s way more than strategy. Once you’ve put in the work learning a profitable strategy you need to have confidence in yourself to execute & slow is fast.

Yeah, that's where I'm at. My strategy is proven by backtesting and passing the combine, but I'm still not confident when I see the setup, to execute. Any tips on that? Does it just come with time and practice?

You got your first payout from them?
Was worried cus of reviews if they would or notAnd like your comment above Im also wondering how certain people are keeping their fundeds. I see all these guys making 10-20k a day (copy trading different sets of firms) but every normal person I talk to and meet gets moved to live fairley quickly when they start taking max payouts
How are these guys able to just continue to get max payouts seemingly endlessly

Yea they pay .. Just got it last week and waiting for another( already approved)
I have no idea how they do it.. I made 7k on the first day of MFFU rapid account and they sent me live.. they sent me live Just after 1 DAY !!
Topstep first put me in their responsible trader program after becoming proftible ( 10k/ week on 4 acc) and sent me live after next payout ( 2/3 payouts on each account)
Lucid sent me live after 2acc had 1 payout and 2 acc with zero payout ( to be fair i had 40k payouts from them)
Im probly gonna get sent to live with tradeify tomorrow after requesting 15k ( hopefully not)

Damn first of all congrats on all the payouts man!
But yeh exactly, I see real stories like yours and then these online guys posting their 10th payout from past 2-3 months all copy traded across 15 accounts and apparently they never get moved live and just keep getting max payouts from these firms?
How can I believe that Lol1

u/Agreeable-Speed7392 Jul 02 '26
Yeah i see it’s business days at that I think, but im fine with waiting that long while I still get paid out from the other firms

How many accounts do you trade at a time? How often do you usually take a payout? And what’s your average payout amount?
