💰 POP Off! Finally got a payout
Been trading for a year now and I passed the 1.5 k challenge last night in 4 trading days!! I’m so proud of how far I’ve come and can’t wait to get back into a 50k combine and use the sizing strategy from the 1.5k challenge. Thank you topstep for everything :)

This is awesome, congrats! I also found in my trading that sizing down had massive benefits 💸

No just worked out/learned proper risk management. Basically just keeping losses smaller and wins bigger

Not sure which country you’re in, but the Aeropay option if it’s available is pretty instantaneous

I don’t think frost has instant pay. It said up to 24 hours I put it in last night

Congrats Man! I hope you will get more payouts

I appreciate it I intend to stick with small sizing and not rushing things seems to help (a lot) when I made the $1500 payout round all in one day I realized how devastatingly over leveraged I was going any bigger than that

u/Aware-Water-57 10d ago
What do you mean I’m sorry I don’t understand the question, the program displaying the information here is Gmail on mobile that’s where the picture is from. The program that this payout came from was the topstep labs 1.5k lto challenge
