And remember that when you get funded with TPT, you have to reach the buffer zone but it is intraday trailing up until you reach the buffer zone. The buffer zone on funded account is NOT EOD based; it is intraday trailing as you’re in profit.
On apex there’s an active loss limit which is worse. You cannot go below a set price ever within the day or it automatically fails. But you almost always go negative before going positive and it really limits. I’d much rather daily loss than active live loss
in your videos you have mentioned that you capture the daily range most of the time, is this what you teach your members? how many have been successful with the strategy you employ?
To clarify I've never said I capture the entire daily range, that would be insane lol. If you take mean reversion trades from the edges in VWAP POC you will make 500-1k easily. The people that listen to our advice do very well and post their profits in our profits channel and testimonials. The easiest way is to come see for yourself. 100% of the people that don't improve are unable to get past their own ego because they have something to prove.
Have you or anyone else had any issues with receiving payouts from TPT? Going from the Pro to the Pro+ account took longer than promised and now I've been waiting for my payout with no real set date of getting it. I'm trying to see if this is a one-off or if anyone else has had any payout issues with them as well. Thanks in advanced!
I mean I much prefer the drawdown on TPT vs Apex. The trailing drawdown on Apex means you usually can't hold longer positions given the ups and downs in the market unless you go extremely small size. There's no reason why, on Apex for example, if I'm green on the day that I can still fail the account. The drawdown on TPT makes much more sense to me, you can only fail the account if you go red on the day, and only if you go red by that certain amount. So for a $500 daily loss limit, i can lose 499 day 1, and then another 499 day 2 and still have an account. Apex will fail you if you make too much money and then lose a bit of it. To me this makes much more sense. The only accounts on Apex I would ever buy are their static accounts just for this reason.
I agree, except that TPT ADDS a trailing after you pass. So it feels like going backwards a bit. To be honest though, literally any firm is fine if you can get paid haha. Newbies struggle a lot on the nuance though
The issue is TPT does your trailing drawdown on the unrealized amount. So you trade 5 contracts on NQ and it goes 11pts against before doing a face ripper of 30pts. You failed eventhough you would get 3k on the sale. On Apex it would have to go 25pts against for you blow up your PA Account. So on Apex you have a little more wiggle room. The big issue here though is with Apex once you pass the 2,600 mark you can take a larger unrealized loss. But with TPT you can't. You are always limited yo that 11pts.
@@brianphillips3952 TPT locks at the starting balance + 100 once you reach funded, and on eval it's just EOD. You get a little more drawdown on Apex, but then you're also capped on payouts and payout cycles
I agree, just manage risk if you know 1100 is your limit, trade lower and build a cushion. I like them alot I already mad my eval and activation fee back without waiting 10 days or 14 days to request a payout.
@kenya8716 same I made 3 payouts in 3 days for almost 6k within my first 3 days of the pro account. I made a bad trade and took a week off to relax and not revenge trade 🤣
The $50K account isn't worth it at 7% per year, even the $150K account runs 3%/yr, to make a "livable" amount you need at least $300K and this company seems to think traders don't know to check percentages vs fees.
What is the profit split with TPT? I’ve scoured their website and all it talks about is how you can get daily payouts but not how much of your money you get to keep.
@@forrestforce I found it. It’s 80/20 in the Pro account and 90/10 in the Pro + account. To get a pro + you need to make $5k profit and leave it in the account as a buffer.
@@forrestforce it’s not a bad trade off for getting to withdraw everyday, I’ll make it to 5k in no time. Apex is just frustrating with their payout rules. Topstep has a reasonable payout system, they’ll be the next one I try if I don’t like TPT.
Unfortunately, I just signed up last night. But I am a little confused about the daily loss limit term in general. So say for the 50K account, Does that mean you can’t go -$1100 in an active Candle even if you haven’t closed out the trade or does that mean you can’t have an $1100 loss at the end of the day? Thx
Its not unfortunate, I just passed this firm on a 50K, treat less than 1100 as your daily loss limit you have a minimum of 5 days anyway. Them and BluSpy have the payout structure, can request payouts from day one. Also once funded you are able to reset your funded account if you have an off day and blow the rules. Ive thrown away money on Apex trying to trade 10 days to request a payout only to blow my account.
I totally understand, but why you saying its worst prop firm when you just read wrong rules ? That's just my ask why this name of video... I like your video a lot !!!! Thanks Forrest !
Despite my mistake there are far better accounts without this limitation. They do have daily withdrawals etc, but it's very gimicky to blow an account with a daily loss when there is already a max loss. Makes no sense
@@forrestforceidk why ppl worry so much about these daily loss limits … u need to come up with a firm risk management strategy and stop blindly trading then it won’t be a problem to y’all …. It’s for discipline traders ..
Apex absolutely sucks! They don't want to pay out. If your strategy is not in their strategy criteria, then, you're not getting paid, period. This $1,600 draw down shouldn't be an issue if you have discipline and know what you're doing. Personally, Forest, I believe you're just a content creator and not a professional day trader if this is an issue to you and you're blowing up your accounts like that...
Thanks for watching! Seems like you have a pretty strong opinion on prop firms and that's totally fine - there are a ton of options! I made a little over 7 figures in the markets before the whole prop firm craze, so I know trading. My content is geared towards new traders and helping them navigate this complicated space. Good luck out friend!
Also I'm not sure if you say this in any of your other videos (sorry I'm a new sub, I like the content), but unless you are on a truly live account, profit splits are all a complete facade. You're trading in a SIM account when funded on most firms, they don't get a penny from you except the fee you pay. I know Apex will graduate you to an actual live account, but it's fairly rare and only when you end up costing them too much money (because when you earn as a newly funded trader, you aren't making them money, you are costing them money). Understanding exactly how every prop firm operates and where you trade is important. Not saying you don't, again I'm a new sub and I'm liking the videos a lot, still have a lot to catch up on, but just wanted to put that out there.
If you can't trade within that DLL... Trading may not be for you. With prop firms, it needs to be slowly and surely. But to suggest APEX at the end is hilarious!
Just because you're not disciplined or have really good risk management, you made a video viewing your frustrations on their instructions? Come on, you're better then this. They are a great firm, if not the best.

you get daily payouts so people need to stfu about trailing in pro account. something has to give. if you dont want daily payouts then stfu and whine somewhere else. generally speaking

Daily Loss Limit is ACTUALLY a GREAT METHOD OF evaluating traders. I think this daily loss limit == death, is THE BEST RULE I have seen! If you can't stop before you hit this, you SUCK and should not trade.
Comments like this is why you need to think before you type. A daily loss limit puts a cap on growing the maximum risk on the account. Sure, for small account traders it makes perfect sense and is easy to manage. For people that are ACTUALLY trying to grow the account and increase leverage it become an arbitrary limiting factor. If my average position size is 2NQ, 500 dollars is nothing, heck 1K is nothing for drawdown especially when my average trade targets are 100-150 points. The reason you can't see beyond that is because you aren't at that level yet, when you finally start trading with meaningful leverage in a larger account you'll be able to comment without looking stupid. Thanks for watching!!
