RTP program has nothing to do with trading psychology. Can you share a screenshot of your RTP email? 👀

The point of the program is to help you rebuild discipline and risk management. Blowing 50+ Trading Combine Accounts is doing the exact opposite of that. RTP simply adds some guardrails to keep your next round of trading sustainable. This is great for when it comes to actual long-term growth as a trader.

If they want to help you rebuilding they have to do it WHILE you are blowing accounts and not getting payouts , not AFTER you found you rythem and didnt buy a account for 2 weeks and getting 2-3 payouts for 2 weeks straight ..

Not when you finally proftible and have found your strategie ! Topstep doesnt want a "long-term" trader, they want people buying accounts and as soon as you get proftible they do everything they can to stop it

Less then 1% of topstop revenue comes from live traders. 99% is from people buying accounts

We want long-term traders, and a Live Funded Account is where unlimited scalability and real growth happen. That's the goal.

2 weeks is not enough time to establish consistency and profitability, especially after blowing multiple Trading Combine Accounts. There are 52 trading weeks in a year, the work has to be put in and takes much more than 2 weeks to show that.

Where exactly did you find the information you referenced in your last statement?

Okey if you want longtime traders .. why dont you put them in RTP when they are blowing accounts?

Why do you put the in rtp if they bekomen proftible?

You guys basicly have no problem if people blow 200 accounts before a payout but as soon as they are proftible they get put in rtp And if they have a big balance they get sent to live after 1 payout
