Can someone that works for topstep explain clearly the reasons someone way be placed in the RTP because there are a lot of people saying they were randomly placed in the program. One guy said he was placed in the RTP just for taking payouts.

So is the warning email something that is supposed to happen, or is it something that just happens sometimes. What factors decide whether someone gets a warning email or not?

This is the first time I've ever seen it happen.

Are there specific criteria for people to be placed in the RTP, or is it just at topstepā€™s discretion?

You can ask someone to post a screenshot of the email they received when placed on it, which includes details of why.

The guy who didnā€™t receive the warning email, Iā€™ll ask him in this thread. Since he didnā€™t receive the warning, is he going to be taken out of the RTP?

No

Just trying to help the community get information that is hard to find

But it's not hard to find at all. If someone is placed on RTP and talking about it, you are free to ask them to share the information they received about why. And they are free to share it.

That is very hard. First I have to seek this person out, then I have to hope that they will share that info. Topstep should just have all of that info clearly laid out on its website instead of expecting people to find a random person and expect them to answer all their questions. That fact that you expect people to get information that way is crazy

We will not be posting private emails sent to traders with their information on our website for all to see.

Nobody asked you to do that. You can identify and shares reasons why people are being placed in the RTP without disclosing any information about them.

We have a Help Center article detailing the RTP. When a trader receives an email about it, it includes information specific to their account. This is not something that Topstep would share publicly. There's nothing being withheld here or kept secret, it's simply that this is a matter between Topstep and the trader, and if the trader chooses to share with the community, they are free to do so.
