You have to be in profit for the previous free retake or extension to apply. This new rule however now means you basically keep that profit and continue with your account as their is no time limit. if you were at a loss in your account, but still ...

Can I also make a suggestion to this thread - to the people who come here saying they have received pay-out from FTMO, typically first time posters to this thread... Post the pay-out certificate here, with the QR code - there is a reason FTMO have a ...

About to pass verification stage with FTMO for the second time on $50k / £35k account: 1 day left to hit the 10 day minimum target. See if I can be little more level headed this time around when "funded" and not treat it as a race. I certainly wont ...

The new 4 day rule is a good move - frustrating this is on new accounts only though... Now sat on a step one for $50k (£35k) and have to wait 10 days for really no reason at +25% (target was 10%....)

Would also be interesting to reconsider the Max Daily Loss (MDL) rule when a trader is above the principal account value which they have applied for. For example, if you are up $10k on a $100k account, then MDL 'should' be overwritten to $10k + 5% ...

They have a live chat on the website - so ask them. From what I have seen it's like for like across platforms. On a side note, if the spread is an issue for you, then you must be running very thin profit margins.

In classic spectacular "jezzode" fashion I managed to drop back down to $50k, a matter of hours before the profit split day too!! Can only laugh about it, back to the drawing board for now. At the very least the account is still alive to fight for ...

I guess that's always good - see how long it can be maintained for! It's been a rocky week. The top 10 Leaderboard is good fun, but it also starts to play on your mind when you want to move up positions, dare I say forcing trades... So far still ...

Sounds great, good luck with the new challenges too - I had a bit of a mad day yesterday (day 1 of the live account), but managed to end on the top 10 leader board for FTMO in the $50k category - all be it in 10th place! Back to being sensible now ...

After much deliberation, I had another bash at FTMO, on the $50k account. I've tried a few times in the past and was shocked when I saw the history of attempts! Really curious to see how it works out. Passed the Challenge stage and now pretty much ...

What are you expecting - sanctions are not mutually ethical, nor are they at the fault of FTMO, they are imposed - you can blame RU payments on SWIFT sanctions. It also makes total sense for cyrptos to be blocked - if anything it also shows how ...

From what i've heard, and I may be wrong - the account you trade in demo is what you would trade if you passed. You'd still be in demo after passing with the trades being sent to FTMO to [potentially] execute at their own account. Spreads in gbpusd ...

I believe you can ask for a 1:30 swing account at the time of passing both 'demo' tests; before going live and signing up. Or, you can request a change when at Live 1:100 - however, there are limitations as to when this is allowed - best to do it ...

Is this a live 'real fund' account (albeit on demo sent to prop account)? Edit: are you on 1:100 or 1:30 swing - different rules...

For sure, risk has been through the roof in first few trades - you can see that via equity curve. Target hit in a few trades... (don't judge me

Just testing the waters here on a $25k account to understand the process of passing before potentially going for the $200k bad boy. Has anyone passed the $200k - what was your experience and what were your learnings?? Seems I'll make it onto stage 2 ...

I'll call this one in advance - as to not avoid doubt like today! (from 06:00 UK time on 23.09.20) 1.3648 ish (+/- 5pips) short in GU or 1.3606 ish (+/- 5pips) short in GU [should London open be below 1.3606] Target for both based on an ATR ratio = ...
