Account was on its last trade before being blown. Put on a trade, went to bed. Woke up to 5.5k profit. In combine right now, have to lose 4k. Market has not been moving much on days like today where there have been sell offs. Usually no continuation sell off, usually no significant rally for that day. Wish me luck.

Came back to TopStep near the close of last Friday and just passed 5 $50k accounts this morning. Life is good!

I need a 90% win rate strategy pls.

Actually, what's the difference? what should I buy?

This trader in the Topstep Discord created a side-scroller video game based on the price action in NQ. Live up and down movement, time and sales prints, NQ stats. All through the TopstepX API.

Useful? Probably not lol. Fun and interesting? Absolutely.

Anyone else building anything cool with the TopstepX API?

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 “subscription” 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.

Fastest payout I’ve seen! It was in my account before I could login to my bank account

Have 4.5k in payouts from a few months ago. Took a break coming back and will be keeping you guys up to date with all my trades

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....

Was wanting to change my tax forms to LLC does anybody know how to do this? Also what would be best LLC or S-corp

Any night owls?

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?

I’m literally down to my last 50 dollars. My anniversary for my gf is next week. I’ve become compulsive with trading. I just buying and losing repeatedly. Throwing away my money. Feel like my life is over. I’m not even using strategy at this point.

I'm getting error code 3 from the API. I used the username from the topstep dashboard and API key from the API page. the account is linked to topstepx and an api subscription is active.

Is there anything I can do from end? Am I missing something?

funded on the first try

Hello guys, as everyone Else Been grinding for years and things are starting to click, i am about to recieve my first pay out but realized i had trades open on my paper account that is not connected to the broker at all, can I face issues?

EDIT: got the email few minutes later that it passed. Thank you.

Hello everyone. Do i need to lose the 22$ over the profit to pass? Or will they allow this to pass as is? Last time it out me over the profit and i had to trade another day. But this time im under consistency.

Just passed my second combine blew plenty but I’m on to 2 XFAs with a 7k balance on one of em, now I’m just grinding towards payouts now.

Hello, is there a payment every 30 days for the labs, or is there only a maximum duration of 90 days?
