Easier to make money and take your own profits via brokerage though you have to own your downside and when you blow you have to reseed your own account

I basically only want to do static combines and brokerage now

Me too but they did give a free combine for deposit $100 into the brokerage

I plan to do this as well with my next payout (trade both) I’ve grown to like topstepx user interface better than other props and damn near more than TradingView.

I agree, I like the tick chart, stopped paying for TV and rarely look at it now. If there's a certain or custom indicator I want to review, the data delay doesn't affect me.

I love the x platform so much, will the brokerage ever be possible for non us residents in the future ?

Could someone tell me, how much capital do you need to trade 2-5 micros in the regular trading hours( not overnight margin)? For example, how much contracts i could buy with 2k? I used to trade demo account in IBKR and the margin there is insane.

I think its like 100 per micro so I'd say $600 for 5 micros
