After reading this post I contacted Leeloo, and will say all questions I asked were very quickly answered. The first time qualifying is basically on them. If you do not qualify you will have to pay for a new trial. You will have to sign up for a 10 day trial using Rithmic. From my understanding the Rithmic data is free during the free trial period. There is no access to Eurex exchange for those that trade DAX, FGBL or FESX.
I also have contact them regarding minimum account balance regarding trailing.
I was inform that they follow unrealized account balance which means your open account balance (positive) will raise your minimum account balance. eg. $300 unrealized/open profit - didn't hit my target - comeback to entry - close break even = $300 raise in minimum required account balance.
That's right. When I started, I only got CL, NQ, and ES included in the trial. But it might be more now, waiting to hear back. Also, they said they will update a lot more info this week. Including the funded account and Power of Attorney etc. I did see this about the trial. You can spread out your 10 days. And if you are still short in 10 days trading, you can subscribe with a monthly fee, and have 30 more days to qualify. You keep the profits you have accrued thus far of course, you would just need to finish earning the remainder.
With the blessing of MES, I started a funded trader chat room about a month ago on Slack.com. MES sent about 20 funded traders our way.
But because of the success of our room, OneUp has finally started a chat room for Funded Traders on the OneUp website. (OneUp has been in business for two years, so our success is the only logical explanation!)
But now that we have invested time and have developed some good friends (some who have since gone back to the eval stage), most of us want to stay where we are, on Slack.com.
So we are now opening our FREE trader chat room to all since the new funded traders may not get to hear about us formally.
We meet daily, especially during the first two hours of the NY session.
I have talked with my co-host, and we have decided to open it up to ALL traders who have ever been funded by OneUp/MES, TopStep, OR any other trader who feels they have reached some level of competence and thinks they have something to add. We are not going to turn anyone away, but we do discuss some advanced concepts and don't want anyone to be lost; so if you have been trading for less than one year, please keep learning and PM me when you feel you are ready.
In the room people do call out trades at times, but the room is much more than a "free trade" room. (BTW, following someone else's trades can be a very risky thing! Everything is at your own risk!). We are brothers and sisters in the battle to remain profitable. We rejoice in each others successes and console after the bad trades (we all have them). We toss in some humor. We try to keep the language clean. We have fun for sure. PLEASE JOIN US. PM me for the link.
Well, it's official. Here is my final summary of the chat room saga. No hard feelings. Time to move on.
OneUp is hosting the MES funded traders chat room, and I am hosting the "Ohana Traders" chat room for anyone who feels competent and confident. We are completely separate now.
"How separate?" you ask. Well they blocked my access to their entire site this week!!!
Here is their email to me-- "We had warned on numerous occasions that you promoting your chatroom is not allowed. You had other members of your room promoting for you on many many occasions. Currently the chat/ message board functionality for you is disabled from what OneUp has told us. If you want to have it reneabled you will have to keep your members in check. -MES Capital Support"
I begged forgiveness and made promises. I am back in now.
Even though I don't blame them for their actions, and I am still trading with them, it hurt a little to be treated this way, considering all the positive press I have given and continue to give MES/OneUp-- and the fact that I was the catalyst for getting their chat room going and was their best buddy for a month or so.
And if you are about to ban someone, you should give them a courtesy email. I think they should have written me, "Hey Darth, we told you not to steal our funded traders to the Dark Side. This is what was posted on our funded board 'xxxxx.' If this happens just one more time, then permanent banishment to the deserts of Tatooine will be our gift to you."
Unfortunately, they deleted the relevant comments, and so I can't see the posts they were referring too. That is okay. But I have asked the 20+ members of my room to NOT say anything about our Ohana Traders room on the MES site. I hope they comply. I don't want to get banned again.
If YOU would like to join our Ohana Traders chat room, please PM me.
I have extended my subscription last Thursday but cannot log into Rithmic anymore. Also when I login to the website my account disappeared and I have to “upgrade” to a paid account.
I tried to reach them via email and phone but have not heard back since Thursday.
Does anyone know what is going on there? I fear they have or will close down.
Thank you for your message. That's interesting as most people in the program have experienced the same as me. I talked with some people on their Facebook page and got similar responses.
