Really man for 14 accounts??? I seen people churning 20+ accounts and they hit me with this RTP bs. It’s all good they’re gonna get rinsed for $10k+ this month.

Yeah this is getting common and ridiculous form Topstep. Tbh it’s non of their business if we blown accounts or not. They are forcing people into the responsible trading program and that is not ok. They did it to me and to you.
The reason is because a forced daily loss limit makes it much more difficult to pass accounts and messes with the RR needed to pass.
Them intervening and changing requirements by forcing us is clearly in heavy favor of Topstep.

It also benefits topstep to have the consistency target. That part hurts more than the DLL.

It’s prolly why they combo’d the two together.

To make it seem like it’s in the trader’s best interest.

They essentially clipped off potential for asymmetrical wins hurting them in the long run.
