    What’s going on Traders so basically trade of eight is one of the most popular platforms you use when joining a one of these prop firms and for newer people they’ve never heard about it before so I’m going to do a quick walk through how to use it my setup and if you have any questions just comment in the video um and I’ll get right back to you guys so this is the most common platform a lot of them give you the

    Option to uh use maybe like rhythmic Trader Pro which is free they and then you can use paid ones like Quant Tower or Sierra charting um but if you want the easy webbased um trading platform you go the trade of vapor app and this is what it looks like um basically you have to set everything up so you would hit indicators right here and and then you would choose what you want is is how it would go so basically I would

    Do moving averages if you use the EMA you do EMA the period you would type in your period so say I just did 100 I click on the color say I want it to be um we’ll do red and then you just hit save now I have a red line already so you can see there’s two red lines right here and that’s pretty much it and then that’s how you add them and then if you want to take it out you

    Go to chart elements you would go to Ema so I have the 34 the 8 the 20 and the 105 I do the 105 because that’s the 21 on the 5 minute and that’s pretty much it um I do these pivot Points that you can’t see on a on a one minute chart but when you go to the 15 you can see the pivot Points in yellow I will show you how you get all this stuff so on the indicators you

    Have all the ones that they give you oscillators moving averages channels and then you go down down here to explore Community indicators and these are ones that other people have used so you can get you know vwat bands these are all the actively used ones you can see how many times they’ve been downloaded some of them are indicators there’s a few chart setups um it gets I mean you can you can add all different types of stuff and then basically you

    Just hit install and once you hit install it will pop up in your indicator list and it’ll be like Nom tools and then you click there and it’ll be in blue and that’s how I got the vwat bands um these are all in these are all Community Fibonacci pivots um anchored vwap so these are ones you got to add if that’s what you want um um I added the pivot Points just show you again um I added the Pivot Point things

    And the viop bands so I don’t I don’t primarily use this chart as my charting tool I use trading view on another screen and then I put my orders in through here but you still want to look at this and say hey like what’s going on I don’t want nothing to be on it so I add uh a couple indicators um yeah so you know the white line is vwap vwap fans and then basically you could left click on the chart

    And I can set orders to sell or buy here um you know and they’ll stay in so say I wanted to to buy down here I just click buy and then you can see it right here this is the green line it will buy once you hit and if you want to get rid of that you can hit the X also say I wanted to buy down here but something happened I no longer want to I can click here exit all

    Positions cancel all and this will sell you out of your positions and cancel all orders within that account but if you want to switch accounts you have to click up here and you have to switch the account you can also buy and sell up here right here is where you can have other um you know things to trade we’re on the NQ um you would click this and then you would type in you know whatever you want so this is you

    Know micro gold gold I would suggest you doing your research before you just go up and trade anything I mostly trade the NQ so I have it here and that’s pretty much it um yeah I mean this platform I’ll be honest with you is super basic um I suggest if you are trading for real that you get a real platform that has um all the indicators something like trading view um you know it it’s not that expensive and um you need

    Insight when trading so being that this does not provide the majority of the tools that I use I can’t make the best decisions that I have just using this but like I said I want a couple things on here so that’s why I have you know the 200 obviously we’ve been chopping around this is a low volume day this is actually Memorial Day so that’s why it kind of looks like this but mostly the you know moving averages will be spread

    Out um and yeah I just use the vop bands to kind of show me where it’s getting extended or too extended um but the platform is uh um so the platform is just very basic here um and you could see like I just scrolled out I don’t even know where the vop bands went here they are but this is glitchy um I don’t like I just scrolled out and things moved around um that’s why I always check on trading view to

    See where everything really is um I don’t know it’s definitely it’s definitely not the best trading platform but I you know I use it to put my trades in and like I said I’m primarily looking at another platform and then I’ll just come in here and whatever but you don’t want to sit here with nothing on it so that’s why I just kind of throw stuff stuff there but it is definitely um not the best I’m seeing what else we can

    Use here moving averages and then obviously you can add I use this actually on here a lot I don’t know why it doesn’t save even though I saved the charting on here um stochastics do not save for some reason um and then you got some things on here you got some reports you can look at just basic basic basic stuff I never used the the chat here’s all the notifications achievements never I have no idea I don’t even know if that

    Works on here because maybe when you use trade of8 with like a an actual broker it works and of a uh prop firm um but yeah I mean that’s pretty much it there’s not a lot to it I mean you can definitely draw on here and make um some trend lines and things like that like you know right here and then when it broke trade above but um it’s kind of not the greatest but I will say it’s easy to get

    Going it’s web based as soon you know you don’t have to set up the uh rhythmic Trader Pro which I’ll make another video on how to do that um you know this is like the beginner to prop firm but like I said you got to make your decisions on another platform and then this is uh for you know just inputting your order I have people that just use mobile apps so they look at a chart on say trading View and they

    Just use like trade of on their phone with the app just to you know just to put the order in and they don’t even use it on here because all they use it for is just inserting orders um so yeah I mean that’s pretty much it you know it’ll give you open p&l and then you have your you know your draw down um that’s draw down to the account smoked and your total profit on the day your open p&l it’s pretty

    Simple I mean there’s not much to it really um it’s really easy to use I showed you how to set up the indicators and um I mean that’s pretty much it so if you have any questions just comment on the video I will get back to you um you know I would I would suggest playing with it a little bit and then as you play with it definitely um definitely hit me up if you run to a snag or something like

    That all right take it easy guys

    What’s going on Traders so I’m going to give you a quick walkr of this TOP Step X platform uh couple questions came up I figured why not make a video about it uh it’s pretty cool if you used trading view before it is the trading view charting um without every single in indicator it seems like they got a bunch of the basics so I’ll give you a quick walk through this is uh my setup real quick they have this new thing

    Called tilt and basically it kind of shows you what other Traders are doing on the stop on the top uh X platform S&P NASDAQ long short if they’re up if they’re down crude oil gold it’s just like a consensus thing I don’t I don’t really use it because I don’t really follow other people um but it’s a pretty cool tool just to see what everyone’s doing I just feel like the majority of the people are always long in general um so

    It is what it is you have you know basically your quotes trades orders that you’re in positions and accounts pretty simple um I have it set up like this you can add different Windows um just by hitting this and you can kind of add different things that you want on here make it bigger you could do um you know they have the top Step TV you can click on to and full screen so see what we got this is the layout

    That it comes with this is the default layout and basically you know you can change it however you want um some people like to use this they could see where the volume is the orders um you know it’s whatever you want really whatever your setup is I guess but uh that was mine and I’ll just run you through some of these things I mean obviously you got time and sales here and you know all the basics but the cool stuff is

    Here obviously if you’ve used other platforms you’re using rhythmic Trader Pro or Trader V this has everything all the little bells and whistles that you know Fib retracements so say you know top B um I know I didn’t click on that correctly and then you just I just hit the delete button on it and it went away just as fast yeah I mean it’s pretty cool let me see what else we got here so we have all the indicators um these

    Are all built in I didn’t add any of these um I don’t use this is the Fisher I I’ve used that in the past um um macd there’s usually a limit to how many you can add on the chart at least there isn’t trading view but the one thing I noticed is there is no um indicators that people made that you get on trading view these are just basically what comes on the platform you know moving averages and and everything else

    And then you just kind of Hit the X to get rid of them if you don’t want this stuff you can hit the X here there’s an X here and that’s why I keep it like this so the chart is nice and big and if I want to just mark it in I can hit you know Buy sell um you know pretty pretty easy flatten all cancel all this is your draw down limit for the day which is pretty cool you

    Could see everything’s really in front of you um yeah I guess you can you can add links to the Chart which is pretty cool and what’s nice is they have videos so like you click on this and they show you exactly what to do right here it’s not you know that I have to go to some FAQ section to see what’s going on um so I just right clicked and you could do uh you know stop s uh limit buy so

    If I just want to put a limit by say right there I could buy one two three five you know same thing up top limit cells all you do is right click on the chart super easy um you could do quick lines super easy to do they have you know you can add text here um you can draw the chart however you want I mean there’s all the uh all the little drawing tools that you get with uh trading View it’s

    Just you know all the magnets these are all just different tools that you could play with I mean you know a lot of this stuff sometimes I play with it I screenshot and send it to my friends you know say something goes up big I’ll put the Emojis on and then all you got to do is click on it and hit delete I’m just hitting the delete button on my keyboard super simple and if you saw um you could also say

    I add an emoji you could click on it and there’s a delete button right there pretty straight forward you have all the different candles that you can use up here candles Hollow candles lines I mean anything that you could think of the platform has um you know you can change what you have the symbol search draw lines of you know trend lines you can move it around super super easy just like that all I’m doing is clicking on it and dragging

    It um I use the scroll button on my mouse to zoom in zoom out just this is just scrolling on my mouse wheel and then you can click on the chart and drags you can see up and down they have all the different time frames you do tick charts somebody asked me actually if you could do ticks you could do all the tick charts you could do the seconds the minutes I mean it’s very uh it’s very simple and everything is

    Really easy to do it’s a real interactive chart um I do like that you can draw the the fibs on here um they have a Traders Hub right right here this is basically all the economic events you can go through news um I don’t really use the news area uh but the economic events is definitely uh something obviously not every single one of these things is going to affect the market um you know but you’re looking for you know the big

    Ones I guess I I use a different platform I don’t want to get into it but this is a good just you know see who’s speaking today I mean it’s pretty it’s pretty good that they they do this performance stat settings this brings you to YouTube TV and their support has been amazing and then you just click trading and you’re back here um can make it big all I did was click on um this right here you can take screenshots you

    Can change all the colors of everything I mean all I did was hit this uh gear button and you can do all the different colors I mean it has everything that you want for the most part the only thing it’s missing is all the other indicators that um trading view has I wish some way you can link your trading view account with TOP Step X and then it will allow you to put your indicators on this chart because that’s the big

    Thing is there’s probably some type of Licensing agreement and if you don’t have trading view they don’t want you using the other uh members uh indicators but it’ be nice if you can log in somewhere to uh trading view here and then that will give you um all the indicators you have on there so that’s probably the only thing I would want I’ve never seen some of these indicators that’s why I just clicked let’s see we have preferences um data speed

    I have not played with any of that it could show the uh executions also when you get into a trade you can just click on it and drag it and it’ll set your stop or your gains and it’ll tell you exactly how much you’re going to gain or lose by hitting the stop or your take profit I really like that super easy to just navigate orders very quickly um oh wow yeah you just I [Music] mean it it has everything I

    Mean it has stuff that you’re not even going to use like I I would never use that maybe somebody else does though but it has has it in I set up uh moving averages so basically I uh clicked and you basically just go up here you go to settings you do how many uh oh so here’s one so I’ll just show you real quick I’ll just get these off so I clicked on moving averages actually three different times during this video

    So I just click on here and I do the length so say I wanted the 21 SMA um you set your colors which is cool so I don’t know pink is that like a peach I guess and you see it right there and they have all the different uh things that you can add in there I mean it’s really just it’s everything that you’re going to need except for those other indicators that you use some of them you know some of

    Them I use so that’s why I always have my Trading few charts up but it’s nice when I take a look at this chart to be able to play around this indicator is that super super Trend which is pretty cool um I’ve just been playing around some of these just to see what they they are and um I left super trend on there which just kind of gives you the the trend not that I use it a lot but it’s just

    Cool to take a quick view and um and see it up there but yeah so these are these are all that are loaded on and then uh all the drawing chart all the drawing tools are up there um you know if you have any questions let me know I I’ve been playing around with it for a little bit now and I’ve liked everything about it I also like that how upfront it is about the daily loss limit um there’s unrealized profit

    This is realized profit which is cool you can see you know both what you’ve locked in and what’s still out there um this is your maximum loss limit and this is your balance uh yeah I mean that’s pretty much it it’s that’s the gist of the The Thing YouTube TV is pretty cool you can watch them they’re pretty much talking all day um so yeah I uh I hope you guys give it a shot there’s a link in the description to

    What’s up Traders so one of the biggest questions I get is what’s the best account size to get in Apex Trader funding or in other platforms obviously platform to platform things might um change based on um trailing thresholds profit goals and uh things like that but right now I’ll just stick to uh Apex Trader funding so I would say that if you’re new to trading I would probably say the uh the 50 not even the 50k I’d probably say 25k trade

    Of8 plan is is the best I say trade of8 because you don’t have to download rhythmic Trader Pro you don’t have to set that up you don’t have to uh do all that it’s super easy web based it’s the simplest way to get going is using trade of8 um I say the 25k account because the profit goal is, 1500 trailing threshold is, 1500 that’s a one to one it’s pretty simple um this is the best one to get into it says

    Contract size four is the biggest listen if you’re trading four contracts um you shouldn’t even be trading four contracts when it comes to this honestly you should probably be trading one contract because 10 points with one contract is 200 bucks and basically that’s like uh what is it eight trades um would get you with a 10-point profit Target would get you the goal um you know I would say that this is the best one for newer people now me personally I

    Trade the 50s because you almost still have the one: one but it’s double the profit goal um you know which is not a problem because I could I normally trade uh probably three to five minis uh at a time five minis at 10 points is 1,000 bucks so I only have to make three trades and basically or three three trades winners and um I’m at the goal actually I hit the goal pretty quick on the 50 I have no issue passing

    Currently I’m passing probably one out of every two so that’s not really an issue at all also got to remember real quick so I can touch on it it’s not 187 a month they’re always running a deal actually right now is 90% off and this one is only $18 so you know 18 bucks gets you this account um let’s just look at some of the other ones real quick I don’t think you know this the profit goal jumps dramatically it jumps

    1,200 and the trailing threshold only goes up $250 that to me is not worth it you it means you have to get $1,250 more dollars and it only gives you 250 Less on the draw down that’s not really uh great in my book the 100K I think is the worst one um trailing threshold is only $500 more dollars than the 50k but the profit goal is actually double and now you have a 2 to1 profit goal is twice as high as

    The threshold and you’re not really getting um yeah I’m going to talk about the capital and everything after I go through uh the rest I would say if you’re going to shoot for something 150 is pretty good um as you can see the trailing threshold jumps 2,000 bucks which is nice and the profit goal only goes up uh it goes up 3,000 but that’s a 50% jump on profit goal but the trailing threshold goes up way more than 50% so you

    Know if you’re looking for a bigger account than 50s or 25 the 150 is a good spot um with 17 contracts you could probably pass this in two trades I I’ve done it um you know it it’s not it’s hard for newer newer people and this one’s the absolute worst they’re pushing the 250s right now so if you pass it’s only $85 one time fee um but listen you got to get 15 grand of profit and the trailing threshold is only

    6,500 so that’s more than a 2: one um this is the hardest one to pass once you’re pass you still have to do $6,600 uh to pull money out um I would say also just remember so with the 250 just say you get oh 250 everyone’s like oh 250 you can only pull out $3,000 a month with the 50k you could still pull out $2,000 a month and the 50ks are you pass that with $3,000 of profit this you need $115,000

    A profit so it’s so much easier to stack up like five I can get 5 50ks over um with $115,000 of profit well $155,000 of profit year would only get me one account 550s I could pull out 10,000 bucks 125 uh 250 I can only pull out three grand and you’re going to say oh well after three months you could pull out whatever well the same goes to the 50s so say you start with a 50k account and after three months

    I’ve scaled that to 70 grand I can pull out the 20,000 bucks um you know 250 same thing you scale it up to 200 70,000 you can still pull out 20 grand once you get out of the buffer in the beginning you could pull out any amount of money as as you want you got to just be trade for three months um I think a the smaller accounts are where to go the probability of you passing and pulling money out are

    Far superior than going after these large accounts and to be honest with you it it’s only giving you extra ,000 of of pull out money a month for three months so and then once you’re out of the weeds and like say your 50k account goes to 60,000 you could go and start trading big numbers at like 10 contracts 10 contracts at 10 points is two grand so you can scale that 50k account up really fast really really fast so I would

    Say stick with the 50s or the the reason I say 50 over 25 25 is easy to hit a $155,000 draw down in the beginning but I guess once you’re out of the woods um you know and say you turn this two you know 25k into uh I don’t know say 30,000 your draw down is like 5K so you’re in the same boat as the rest of them you have a 5k draw down now and you can trade whatever you want

    You just can’t go over four contracts um you you know you can still do damage four contracts is 800 bucks every 10 points but on the 50s you can go up to 10 and you can really start doing damage um that’s why I like the 50s and that’s why you see a lot of Traders doing the 50s so I would probably say 50s is the best one once you’re a little seasoned but if you’re brand new I would go with the

    250s um there’s a 30% consist rule so it’s like 300 and something bucks a day you can’t go over in the beginning but that’s pretty much it so if you have any questions about the accounts comment below be sure to follow and I hope uh you guys understand this a little bit more

  • Apex Trader Funding 250k Account Challenge Update

    ✅ 80% Off Apex – Coupon Code COVETRADER

    Transcript

    Auto-generated from the video audio — expect imperfect punctuation.

    What’s going on Traders so this is the update to the 250k Apex challenge account um they’re pushing the 250k pretty hard um it’s by the Numbers it’s the hardest account to pass I typically stick to 50ks because you only have to go up 3,000 and the draw Downs 2500 um it’s almost a one: one and then when you go to 250 I have to make $115,000 and the draw down is $6,500 which means I got to go more than double the

    Draw down um to pass the good news is once you pass you only need to do uh I think it’s uh 56 or $6,600 to take money out um you know and you could take see what’s weird is a 50k account you could take $2,000 out a month and 250k account you could take only $3,000 so it’s not much more money you could take out I guess the biggest benefits is um once you pass you know you could really make strides

    And trade it and your draw down is 6,500 bucks so you could take some real good shots and try to grow this account you could do the same thing with the 50k account account but you need to get out of the weeds first you need to get once you get the 50k account to 56 or $57,000 it’s literally the same thing as a 250 account um you know your draw down is 65 you know if you get that uh 50k account

    To 5600 and uh 56500 it’s basically the same draw down as the 250 account and then obviously as you you keep going up the draw down doesn’t even matter anymore um you know it it’s whatever but I’ve wanted a pass one I tried twice two times um once recently and once or months ago I guess the one recently I was up to $262,000 and I ended up blowing it and this one um you could see how close I was cuz I

    Was up $4,500 from where I am right now so I was about $1,500 away from passing I took a shot it went against me um now my draw down is only 2,000 and I need to make about five grand so basically I need to take a a good trade and probably hit it for about 600 or 1,000 bucks to get this draw down up a little more um you know you know my biggest problem so if you look this is uh

    You know this was Friday my biggest problem was these candles are very Wicky um the volume was light lot of uh so this was definitely like a bare flag setting up and we broke it a couple times and just Wicked right back up I think it was due to the lack of volume um just wasn’t a good trading environment and that’s kind of where I lost cost the money um I took a sizable shot somewhere around here for uh bare flag

    Breakdown and we just I think we got it and then just shot right back up it is what it is um you know it’s not a funded account so I treat funded accounts much better but realistically the 2 the 250 account is kind of I’ll never do another one again 50k accounts I’ll wear it’s at for me because once you get out of the weeds and you grow it a little bit the accounts are literally the same there’s no difference except

    For the fact I didn’t have to make $155,000 with a $6,500 draw down um more people blow the 250 accounts than anything you know I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve you know with these larger type accounts where I’ve made5 $6,000 real quick where I would have been funded easily with a 50k and ended up blowing it and having nothing so that’s why right now uh I’m sitting on 11 funded accounts all of them 50ks and I’m just trying

    To do this to see if I can do it my friend passed it um on Friday or Thursday and I’m just trying to pass it but I won’t get another one um basically I’m going to try for a nice uh Pivot Point rejection or something like that on I I won’t trade Monday Monday’s light is Memorial Day so on Tuesday I will hit it pretty hard with something and um honestly I’m going to hit it hard enough that I’m probably going

    To go from draw down I’m probably going to lose, 1500 or I’m going to smoke the account or I’m going to make2 $3,000 on the trade and get me to where it needs to be and uh yeah that’s pretty much it I’m probably going to do one solid trade um but when I mean one solid trade doesn’t mean I’m just going to buy 10 contracts in I’m probably going to Le into uh leg into a position and um you know that’s

    What I’ll probably end up doing is leing in and uh you know just a quality setup and try to grab2 $3,000 get my draw down back up to like 5,000 get the account to like 263,000 and then I’ll be in the driver’s seat to just put it over so that’s it I mean the first day I made uh 9 Grand on this account the second day I was up like 4,000 and then yesterday I took a I took like a $3,000

    Hit so it is what it is we will come back uh come back on Tuesday anybody else trading these comment below I want to uh hear what your thoughts are but those are my thoughts on the 250k Challenge and um you know obviously I want to pass it but after this I’m going back to 50s only um if you want a bigger account um I would say the 150 is the way to go um but yeah that’s where I’m at so

    Be sure to subscribe for more updates and uh yeah I’m going trading live soon next month so make sure you’re around

    Week only because yesterday I took a $1,400 loss on it um other than that it would have been up just kind of got away from me on a low volume trading day and it is what it is I also have another bull KNX account you can only have three funded accounts so I have one sitting in the wings that’s already pushed over um I just need to get one of these to 50 2,600 or if I blow one up I have

    The other one to fill in um and then good news on uh what do I call it Apex Trader funding we have one two three four funded accounts on trade ofate and I also have one two three funded accounts on rhythmic Trader Pro and I also have two funded accounts I haven’t signed um the sheet or paid for honestly I didn’t do it because it’s a Friday and we don’t the full trading day is until Tuesday so I didn’t want to

    Do it today and just kind of waste four days out of the month because there is a monthly fee so I’m just going to pay for it on Monday save myself a couple days so at the end of uh this week I have 1 two three four five six 7 three in here which is 10 and I have two more on the way I’ll have 12 funded accounts on Tuesday um this account is up on the week uh 12230 bucks pretty

    Much this one’s up a bit and then this one’s brand new up 500 so overall we’re up a lot we have a lot of new accounts basically Apex ends their thing on Friday next week I believe and so you know I’m getting my evals over I’m getting funded and just pushing this whole thing along so it’s been pretty good I’m going to just keep going um getting the evals they’re cheap now they’re actually half price so I am going to stick

    With doing that um and just keep passing them really uh passing them now and then working on the funded accounts a little bit and then once their deal is up basically put all my focus in just funded accounts um payouts and just keep going on that that train that that’s really what I’m focused on um so yeah just kind of going through the week getting them over basically I’m averaging one to two a a day over pass rate is approximately 50%

    The only reason it’s 50% is I’ll randomly take a 10 lot uh mini for a move and probably also uh to follow up with the top step accounts um I know I’ve made videos about them in the past that is done for now um to be honest uh the deli draw down of a th000 was just no that it wasn’t working cuzz basically um I made a video about it but argument sake say I think we’re going to retest these Wicks

    I’m used to doing um I can’t even place the trade here but I’m used to making a grid if you’ve watched me I I’ll make a grid from like 60 all the way down to 50 or maybe 45 and I’ll just add about three or four contracts and create a Zone like a buying Zone um when I do that with step I get I get stopped out and I think what I’m going to do Apex is running the deal so they

    Can’t beat the pricing so being that I can’t beat the Apex pricing I’m just going to work on apex and then once Apex prices go back up I’ll probably take a shot at top step and I might even try to take profit Trader um make some videos about that see what they they have going on but that’s the deal I basically go wherever is the rules are good and I know I’m going to get paid you know bullnox had their deal

    So I went with them I got the the funded accounts there and then obviously Apex has their deal so I’m over there um you know earning earning there and then just keep it rolling and then once they raise their prices back up where 50k is like 40 bucks I might just spend the extra $9 and get a top step or a couple top steps to try to get that one over because I like how their payouts are every five days or

    It’s like five days of trading $200 a day in profit you could you can withdraw I like that and also I’ll probably give TOP Step a try they have you can withdraw day one as long as you make like 2,000 something dollars but outside of that um you can withdraw I think like every day so I think um you know once you hit 52,600 after that you can withdraw every day um I’m probably going to give that a shot also but

    The deals at Apex are too good to pass up currently so I’m going to just keep rolling with this keep getting these accounts over I like the rules the best for that and then basically um you know just continue here until they raise the prices back up but you know when it ends on Thursday I’ll probably get a bunch of evals load my account up you know the goal is to trade 20 funded accounts with Apex and with them I have

    Three two that are coming is the mix five and the six seven eight nine so I have nine with a Apex I’d like to make it 15 at least by the end of the week next week and then um like I said just focus on them I’m not copy trading because I don’t want to blow up two or three accounts at a time I also tried to copy trade I did manage groups I made one and I bought nine contracts thinking

    I was in three in three different uh evals and I actually it gave me nine contracts inside this funded account and I made 59 52 bucks real quick but you can see I went up real fast a lot as you can see the draw down um you know this account was up another $900 but that’s cuz I was in nine contracts and didn’t realize it the manage group didn’t work correctly so I’m not copy trading but um um going forward I

    Think on the next couple payouts I will I will spring for a Quant Trader I guess it’s Sierra charting and um they use their copy trading platform and that’s probably how I’m going to go about in the future so if you have any questions about everything this is the weekly wrapup um things are going great over here getting more funded accounts daily and working the funded accounts up um if you want to look at my strategies I have tons of videos

    About that so comment below see how you guys are doing hope you guys are passing accounts and getting funded as well um pulling money out and hope things are good over there all right take it easy

    What’s going on fellow Traders so I’m doing the top step X followup and you know I’m always open with everything I do here so I just wanted to update you guys on my top step Journey um basically as you can see all the accounts have been smoked um I learned so basically I trade mostly with the Apex um bullox because their draw down for the total is 2,500 um and the majority of my daily draw down is over 2,000 because I

    Keep making games um you know and I will have days where I go down 1,400 bucks but then make it back and the issue with top step is once you hit the $1,100 draw down for the day the account’s done so there’s sometimes that I’m actually in a trade it goes down 1100 I stay in the trade and that trade turns around and comes back green um that doesn’t work in TOP Step um I think I would approach TOP Step a

    Lot differently if I’m probably going back to using them so what happened was Apex ran a sale uh bullnox had a sale so I had all these accounts and right now I’m sitting on I think 11 funded accounts uh a lot of evals because they are super cheap they’re only like $16 right now if you use rhythmic on apex so I kind of moveed to that platform a lot but I actually love trading on the top step X platform the best

    So it’s like you know it is what it is but I think next time I go around I’m going to trade it a little bit differently and by that so I play a lot of like uh you know bounces off of pivot Points and things like that or uh you know sometimes I’ll even do uh Wick tests so you see I Get Wicked here I’ll you know buy the test down and you know look for a bounce but when happens is

    I end up um I create zones when I get in so argument s like say they may not even let me do it do it let me see if I can even limit by no order rejected so I’ll just do it like argument sake I’ll put an order here you know say I want to get in like around this Zone because this is the like a wick test say we dropped you know maybe I would go you know one one here

    One there say we drop below one and then I would say hey look we’re too close to you know 800 I’m probably going to buy one more here well the issue is if I get filled on all of these um and we drop to maybe like you know 794 I’m going to be I’m going to hit my daily draw down but the odds are we’re going to go through this we’ll probably sweep under 800 and then we’re going to go right

    Back up and that’s how I was trading that because that’s how I trade Apex and I kept on hitting my daily loss limit um and that was pretty much the end of my accounts I I got stopped out quite a bit of times like that and literally 15 minutes later we’re back I would have been green and it just it is what it is so I think I got to be more cautious about the daily loss limit and maybe not either

    Play this in micros instead of four minis do like uh you know five five55 which would equal two uh micros but you’d have 20 minis so I might do it that way or I might just do two um two minis no micros instead of instead of the four um but yeah I mean four or five is typically my eval size in Apex or bull KNX so I kind of got kind of tried doing that over here it just kind of didn’t

    Work um I got it actually the daily dra down isn’t even 1100 it’s 1,000 bucks you can see it right here so that’s that’s pretty tight when I’m used to it being 2,000 plus so I was getting caught when I was making my I guess you you know my trades buying you know in my zones um so it is what it is I love their platform I highly suggest anybody do use it um I have a a link in my description

    If you want to support the channel um but yeah I I I really like what they did here they basically Ed trading view charting um everything’s pretty pretty nice um IED trading view normal normally so it’s this is what I wanted to see um yeah so I think what I’m going to do is once the sales on apex stop I’ll see where I end up with my funded accounts things like that and then I’m probably going to get uh one or

    Two TOP Step accounts again most likely next month and um and and go about this with a smaller size because what I want to do is I want to pass like everybody else but once you’re funded you can take money out um quickly I think it’s like five days of 200 plus so I would be I would be taking payouts right now in my funded accounts in Apex and bullnox but I haven’t because I didn’t reach the profit goal yet while

    TOP Step um I would have been there there so I think smaller size you know even though it’s a 50k it’s really not a 50k I got to treat it almost like a 25k account and then you just hope where your first trade of the day hits and say you hit for 500 bucks well now you have $1,500 draw down that maybe you could take a bigger shot um but they do have consistency rules also you can’t do over uh can’t

    Do over $1,500 a day in their evals so that’s where I’m at I think um I’m going to give it another shot once uh Apex is done with their sales I’m also going away next week so I don’t really want to start something new like this um but as of platforms to use uh TOP Step X is the best one I think it’s their it’s their own thing and they use they piggy back off trading view um but yeah I mean

    That’s what it is I I I got I got my eval smoked um if you want to follow along my other Journeys look at my other videos I’m always open on what I’m making what I’m not making when I get the accounts blown up and it’s just part of the journey you know so it is what it is I am looking forward to being back probably about probably about two weeks I’ll start getting accounts on top top St X and um

    We’ll keep it rolling I I want to get a funded account here and I want to play around and I think it would be pretty fun with a smaller size um just another challenge so if you guys are on this platform comment below let me know your thoughts but yeah I’ve loved it so far

    What’s going on fellow Traders so today was an okay day nothing uh nothing great nothing too bad um I’ll start off of the money first I guess [Music] um let me uh bring this over here these are my bullnox funded accounts obviously I took a shellacking on this one um I was forcing I was down 500 and I was forcing to make the money back and um I don’t even want to say I went on tilt um being that there was

    No volume in the market I probably shouldn’t have even played it that much I probably should have just said listen I’m down 400 whatever I turned 400 into minus 1600 and literally you can just see that um you know we really weren’t going anywhere and I got faked out a couple times um just kind of missed entries on you know it was it was not great on that account um this PA accounts up 100 bucks this PA account I think was

    About [Music] even I meant to do this earlier um this was up a little bit and then this new account was actually up 52 bucks I just got that one today which is uh which is nice um what else did I get I got one over I got a couple Pas that are up this one’s up 700 this is my big one I took about $2,000 loss in in the 250k one today and then I got a bunch of these that

    One got smoked this one’s up a th000 this one I got over this one’s almost over and then that one smoked um and then I have rhythmic so you saw rhythmic with bull KN on my computer Apex wants you to have their own downloaded version so that’s why I have this on my laptop um I can’t show it to you but um one of my one of my funed accounts was down 65 bucks um one was down one was up 340

    And my last one was up 165 5 and then let’s see if I got any any I got another account over so that’s two accounts over I got [Music] today uh see anything else happened it’s about even I didn’t even trade that didn’t even trade that didn’t even trade that so I actually got two more funded accounts today um so it’s three six 78 N9 10 and the two more bring me to uh 12 funded accounts and then I have the

    One in the wings in bullx so yeah things are getting uh interesting I am curious I didn’t get my email about these yet so that’s why I was just kind of um 308 oh yeah oh I got my email for so okay I’m not going to sign um my funded ones because we can’t trade until um basically Monday night so I don’t want to pay for the monthly today when I could pay three days later so I’m going to wait a

    Little bit um and that’s pretty much it that that was the MoneyWise is definitely good I’ll be honest with it was a weird day like I’ll just be real super weird day um I played you know this was pre-market I didn’t play that I think I played a bounce somewhere around here um and I think I played like a 34 bounce and I didn’t make many trades to be honest with the only like if you look one one two obviously I

    Traded this a lot but other than that um I played this big drop um other than that it was like that 58 is literally just scalping and I got hosed scalping only because you could just see like when it goes up it comes down it’s very choppy even when we were going up it’s very choppy um it’s not if you look at previous days you don’t get chopped like that you get a more uh consistent feel I guess um see how

    Like you know it’s kind of like you know kind of goes well this is in the morning like you know you going to drop and then you go like the candles are more full while like today’s candles are very eh very choppy did not like the price action today um not only did I not like the price action today like we couldn’t even come up and hit a pivot point uh I didn’t even play this pivot I actually I did I

    Played this Pivot Point rejection right here and I actually missed it on the way up so I didn’t even get a lot of it in there but you look you can see it rejected and dumped um I kind of missed it because it was right at 9:45 and I don’t trade um I don’t trade the beginning of the the day I wheat so it was kind of uh I don’t know really wasn’t good I just kind of you know didn’t do

    Much but yeah I missed it I caught it on the way down played it a little bit and that was it um this runup was super nice I got a little bit of it but like I said I didn’t really do much um I don’t really like when volume’s low and then we I thought we were going to chop here to be honest with you push up to at least this pivot point and we just couldn’t get there and then and

    Then just kind of rolled over um I don’t know I I didn’t really see it once we were up here I didn’t really see the market all that well and you could see these candles you know down back up down back up down down back up like it’s just these are some big chops so I don’t know we’re off basically Monday the Market’s open on Monday but it closes at I think noon um either noon or or 1:00 I got to

    Look I’m probably not going to trade to be honest with you I’ll probably be back trading Tuesday um looking to Apex deal goes on until next Friday so I’m basically focusing on passing more accounts and try to get as close to maybe 15 or 20 accounts over and then basically not play any evals and just play funded accounts going forward um but yeah I think listen overall was a decent day I got a lot of funded accounts up and um that

    One took a bath so all I got to do is I got to focus on that the one that took a bath I got to focus on a real solid play on Tuesday and try to get you know 800 bucks back in there and I’ll be right back on track the good news about um bullnox is it’s a onetime fee for funded accounts so I could take as long as I want and I’m perfectly fine um I don’t have to worry

    About time so it is what it is and I will uh I’ll focus on getting that account back up but I hope you guys had a good day um you know I’m going to put out some content of things my thoughts um some of the options I’ve been trading and uh just take a look over the weekend be sure to subscribe like the video and uh hope you guys had a good day thanks

    So I just want to go over why I took this trade today so you can see kind of how it came up and then it basically just bull flagged off the bottom um perfectly like that and we were basically over the 34 um we were holding there and this was I like this setup where we come off the bottom we make a higher low we kind of flag out um it’s kind of like a stage one base and then um yeah

    And then it kind of just ramps up another leg up um this was like Prime setup prime prime um I played this in a couple of my accounts that I have this is just the one that’s on the screen um yeah I mean I should have went all all in but I did um purchase like I said in multiple accounts I probably had I don’t know maybe 20 contracts total and um being a slow trading day I was kind of worried

    Volume is lower today it being Friday before Memorial day but yeah this just played out perfectly anytime I see these setups I um I always hit it pretty hard and um um yeah this just worked out worked out really well as you can see up 400 and then all of a sudden it takes the real leg up um kind of like the breakout of the flag and um you know you can see the The Profit goes over 1,000 bucks at one

    Point I don’t know the exact number I I sold out at um but you can see the p&l at the bottom left goes over 1100 at one point and I think I get out um slow computer you know

    So I’m going to go over this trade setup today so I got in this um basically cuz it was pulling back to the 9 and we were kind of flagging um flagging right here and uh you can see I got in I put my stops and uh my take profits right there um yeah this is an eval I’ve been pushing up today at the end of this trade I’m pretty good in it but you can just see how it was working

    Itself up and um it was looking it was looking strong and um it just almost gets me out right there I can’t believe that happened actually so now I’m just like oh come on push it one more time um you know and then of course it it tests me right here by giving up all the gains almost almost and now I’m kind of like oh what did I do but I know I still like it we’re staying above the nine we’re

    Uh above the previous candle it it’s still looking good you know I do I don’t like that the stochastics are starting to turn down I was getting kind of worried about it but I felt like if we held the bottom of the previous candle I will stay in this trade and um you know it still looks like a flaggy to me so I stuck in and uh sure enough it’s paid off here as you could see um pretty solid Gainer and

    Then I just kind of uh you know exit all

    250k Apex Trader Funding Challenge – Almost Passed

    Transcript

    Auto-generated from the video audio — expect imperfect punctuation.

    What’s going on so I am trying to do the Apex 250k challenge account they obviously made a big deal about it um when they’re offering the $85 onetime fee I wanted to try it I got close on one I was at 261,000 and I ended up blowing the account um it’s not necessarily blown the account I just hit the draw down I obviously when I hit the draw down the account was still up um but here I am right now I

    Have about $1,700 to go I was up 4,000 today my draw down is 5,500 which means I was almost $700 away I am uh you know it’s I’m I’m right there I can taste it so basically I’ve been playing two contracts on moves I’m like eh about and I’ve gone as high as actually my first trade was 27 contracts it was yesterday and um let’s see if I can find it real quick so yesterday Thursday I want to say it was

    Right around here it was somewhere here yeah it was on this big drop yesterday it was either on this or when one of these Wick down when it not not on the news it was uh it was one of these and I went 27 contracts in and I made about I want to say I made about $5,000 on that and then I said you know what I’m up five grand I’m not playing around like that and then I made some other

    Trades and got it up I think I ended around 9,000 up yesterday and then today I added another 4,000 bucks um you could see I did some stupid stuff like I don’t even know why I you know and you know what I I was in at the bottom here and I didn’t hold it long enough and I was playing I should just followed the Tren down to be honest with you um I was [Music] playing some of the wick tests on

    Um so like when we came down here I figured we were going to balance at 8 800 which would have been this Wick test and it would have been close enough to the pivot point and we actually just sold right through it um so yeah that hurt me I had to make some of my money back and things like that but overall this 250 pass is probably the hardest um account there is to pass it doesn’t make sense um you know

    If you think about it a 50k you have to make 3,000 and the draw down is 2500 it’s about even the 20 the 250k I mean I got to make $115,000 and my draw down is only6 500 which means the draw down I have to make more than double the draw down which is crazy um but here I am I’m I’m doing it this is the last 250 I’m going to get I’m only did it because it was it was only

    $18 or 16 bucks whatever it was um you know I it’s just the numbers don’t really make sense but once you’re funded I truly believe that I can do some big damage because I think you only need to get like 5600 for a payout and the draw down is still 6500 which is nice um and also you start playing with bigger numbers which means you know if I have some good days and I go up you know 15,000 for the week

    I know I can’t pull out 15,000 but I can really pad the account over the thre Monon span that when I’m allowed to finally take out my big one it could be a massive Payday for me and that’s kind of um you know the Allure about it why I want to do it and also everyone was talking about it so I figured why not give it a shot and um and go after it so you know tomorrow I’m probably going to

    Play it tight because I only need $1,700 more dollars um I could have done so many chances today honestly like if you just I know it’s so stupid to say but like you could have just taken the short and done it um I don’t know I played a bunch of different you know times through the day and um I don’t know it is what it is we were up today lot of opportunities to pass it I didn’t take it but I

    Feel like I’m in a good spot where tomorrow I can pump it over get funded for this is my this will be my first $250,000 um doll account funded which is exciting um and yeah and that’s pretty much it so that’s where we’re at I hope anybody else that’s doing this is doing well if you’re trying the challenge comment and be sure to subscribe and uh you see my videos tomorrow all right take it easy guys
