Doing a 50K Gauntlet right now. Traded seven days so far and up right at 2k ($1,959.12). Just need another 1k over the next 8 days. If I knew I wasn't going to have any drawdown I would have done the 25k and I would have passed today. lol. I did the 50K for the higher daily drawdown ($1100 vs $550 for the 25K).
Averaging $280 a day net. If I keep that up I'll pass Friday, but I'll still have to trade another 4 days after that to account for 15 days of trading.
Hey Ryan, can I convert my account to a 25k and count it as passed?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Hi, I trying to choose between trying this or using my own money, I have a couple of questions:
- What's the point of saying "25k accounts" if you are only allowed to trade 2 o 3 contracts? With intraday margins you'll never reach that number (I think)
- How much money does Helios is actually risking per trader?
- Are you guys evaluating a solution for Sierra Charts users? I'm not confortable using a not officially supported data connection.
I'm using Sierra and just passed. Rithmic works fine with it. But I couldn't use my AMP login and run Rithmic. I had to get a login directly from Sierra and pay $26 a month for charting from them to get the feed to work.
There's a specific thread on the Sierra help forums that deal with it. Some package you have to install and create a folder and put it in it. I'll see if I can find the thread. But I'm also thinking on later versions now, you don't have to do that, but not sure. There's something you have to check when you install that installs it now I think. I went through so much I can't remember half of it now. But once I got it all done I found it wasn't working because I had the wrong Rithmic feed selected. lol.
And once you get all that done you have to make sure you don't have 'sim' checked under the trading tab.
