Are there any eval firms that allow you to sync to your own account?

Hi
What I'm trying to ask is, is it possible to modify the risk settings with any prop firms to stop me out before I hit their limit?

I seem to be really good at making money on a sim account that isn't a prop firm sim so I was thinking if I could group my sim account with my sim risk settings and the prop firm sim eval account. I have mine set is more stringently than the prop firm and I could then stop myself if need be through my own personal risk settings.

I know I should not have to do that, but has anyone come across where it is a possibility to do this?)

If you use a Rithmic based prop firm you can specify your own risk parameters through the Rithmic Trader app.

I know there are funding companies at which you’re allowed to use trade-copying software, with the master account being one of your own somewhere else and the slave account being the evaluation one with the funding firm (as long as you certify that it is your own account you’re copying from, i.e. not a commercial signal service or similar, I think).

But, uselessly to you, I can’t now remember which ones, which is what you obviously want to know - sorry! (I think there are quite a few of them, though).

Just a note: fixed the thread title -- changed "sink" to "sync," short for "synchronize."

True indeed. And this newfangled "autocorrect" invention doesn't always help with that, either.
