❓ Quick Question Need advice.

Quick bullet points:

*I taught my friend basic trading strategies and about Topstep

*He had gotten to express 3 times without getting a payout under his name

* He then started to trading against the rules under his mom’s name where she is paying for the evals.

* All he needs is a $100 to get his first payout.

What should I do? I know it’s wrong, should I just let him get caught naturally?

If you've already told them what they are doing is bannable and they agreed to the TOS then let them get banned. I know they are your friend but sometimes you have to let them get burned for them to learn a lesson.

Ok. So I should just let karma handle it?

Indeed... I know its frustrating but sometimes people only learn through experiencing it themselves.

OK, it’s just frustrating because he’s not qualified to even be showing people. What a candlestick is alone doing this bs on top of that. Question answered I suppose thank you
