In terms of timing, all of mine have been approved within the same or next business day, and the fastest was within 1 hour of requesting it was approved.
In terms of delivery to my bank account, using the Wise app was like 1-3 biz days, but direct ACH was same or next biz day depending on when it was approved.
I cant imagine the influx of newbie traders and more basic b/s their support has to put up with from the lower prices, but it really is nice to have a decent company with cheap prices.
Dont get me wrong, Im totally for the the pay what you get for camp, and paying money for quality goods, but I just cant give up a good deal.
Maybe thats more a personality thing though, I bought my kitchen table from IKEA and love it. So if I get halfway decent value for less expensive cost then Im a customer for life.
There are actually quite a few online simulation funding programs out there that do cater to the more expensive and white glove / luxurious experience - Im just not interested in giving them hundreds more a month when I get the same output for cheaper
I'm currently a 'funded' trader with Topstep and it's been a very pleasant experience so far using their TopstepX platform and the integrated copy function.
I trade 5 x 150K accounts, so even a small $200 day is $1K per day.
Only one funded account doesn't seem attractive enough to me, but when you can have 5 and leverage your results, it's pretty interesting.
From my point of view, I'm only trading one account. I take the extra profits as a bonus.
On the other hand, if I were trading all 5 accounts at once and had a 2K drawdown (10K), I might have been feeling different about it. So it's a bit of a mental trick.
Short Question to their topstepx-platform:
Is it really not possible to set stop loss and take profit for limit oders? In tradingview it is of course possible. What a platform would it be if it wasn't, especially for day trading and scalping. But the support told me in the chat that it would be possible only for orders which already have been triggered. I hope this is a misunderstanding, isn't it??
But that's only a general configuration for all orders, as far as I know and IMHO thus makes sense only as a secondary safety measure. I want to set SL/TP for each order and instrument individually of course. Every Trading Platform I've used so far offers this possibility for each order seperately, many directly in the order window.
