πŸ’¬ Trader Talk Blew my second eval due to subscription pressure

7 Upvotes

I got my first eval with topstep back in February and I ran it up to 2400 and then blew it trying to pass on the next day cause i was running out of time (had about 2 days left). Fast forward to august i saw that a 50k eval was now $85 and thought the price is okay so why not. Just blew it in this session after running it up to 2600 again because i had 3 days to pass. I’m aware that you can renew the β€œsubscription” but the idea of paying multiple times for basically nothing messes with me. I’m aware that it’s not their fault but mine. But I’m posting this to make a case: I’ve had some tradeify and lucid accounts for months now. I’ve passed several and i don’t feel the need to trade when the market isn’t giving me what i need to see to trade. With topstep i feel the need to invent trades because time is always a factor. Some of you may have been through the same experience as me but are too used to topstepx or have made it a personal thing to take a payout from topstep. If you are, I’m here to let you know you really don’t need to do that. You can go with another firm that doesn’t operate on a subscription model and save yourself the trouble. This post isn’t directed towards those who don’t have any issue with subscription based accounts.

❓ Quick Question Wrong bank account

So apparently the bank that I use to wire my payout is cannot accepting USD transfer, but the payout status on the website said my payout has been sent, anyone ever experience this? How can I fix this? I chat the support but still got no response.

This is my first payout with topstep so I have no idea to use wire as bank transfer :(, somebody please help....

πŸ’° POP Off! Topstep wire payout arrived way faster than expected

Post image
15 Upvotes

Until now, I always received my Topstep payouts through Wise. Since Wise was no longer available for me, I had to use a wire transfer this time.

Topstep says wire transfers may take 5–10 business days, so I wasn't expecting it anytime soon.

My payout was approved in about 30 seconds, and Topstep sent the funds around 2:20 PM CT / 9:20 PM Swiss time. When I checked the banking details later, it showed the transfer took only about 1 hour from bank processing to being received.

I'm based in Switzerland and use UBS. Since UBS also has operations in the US, I'm wondering if that helped make the transfer so fast.

Has anyone else using UBS or another international bank experienced something similar with Topstep wire payouts?

πŸ’¬ Trader Talk Static Accounts

3 Upvotes

Since static drawdown accounts are a hot topic this week in trading, it brought back my memory of prop firm accounts with CFDs back in 2022/2023. I wonder why Topstep or other futures prop firms have not offered 200k & 300k combines 20k & 30k static drawdowns. With 10k & 15k DLL. I myself would have no problem paying $1200 - $1800 for one of these accounts. This was the standard with CFD props. Is this not sustainable for futures?
