traders chat

hey guys, ive been probably one of the most loyal and longest customer in topstep, my trading journey has been tough but rewarding and lately i have a lot of reflections about life being a trader. in short, i find difficult in finding a purpose in life when a 1-2 hour work suffice all my necessary spending and im not planning to open accounts with other props cuz i think only topstep is trustworthy, so basically for the rest of the days i find myself wandering, going to parks, read, paint, living like a retired man while i just turned 24, its just this was not what i expected when i started this journey 6 years ago.

if youre interested in having a chat here or having some reflections, lets talk or feel free to tell me whats your hardest thing to overcome to become profitable

Got moved to live before requesting my first payout

Just got moved to live with 5 XFAs.

I took a payout on one 50k XFA that I had started earlier yesterday. Then today, I hit max payout eligibility on the other four 150k XFAs.

I wasn’t able to request payouts on those four accounts, and I was told I’m being moved to live instead.

I know this is what I’ve been working toward, and bigger payouts will come in the live account. But honestly, it still sucks seeing around $24k in eligible payout disappear, especially those were supposedly to be the first payouts from those account.

Now I have to wait for 7-10 business days until they set up the live account

Just hit my first 10k day, will let you guys know if i can withdraw profits

Just hit a first 10k day on 5 of my copytraded 50k pro accounts. I didnt know it will auto-liquidate when 10k is reached so i was targeting for 20-30k to have a huge withdrawal after today. Anyway, got 5 50k accounts sitting in 25k profit. If anything goes as stated, I will be able to withdraw 20k profit with the 0.8 split from the 5 accounts. Will let you guys know if anything goes wrong.

How fast has anyone been moved from PRO to PRO+?

Currently copy trading 5x 50k PRO accounts and sitting around +13k net profit on each account.

I’m considering not withdrawing anything until I get moved to PRO+, mainly because I want to scale up size and I am not tight with money, so the daily payout doesnt lure me much to request payouts daily.

This is also my first week with TPT. I used to trade with Topstep before switching over.

So I’m curious:

  • What’s the fastest anyone here has been moved from PRO to PRO+?
  • Has anyone had payout issues or random denials despite following rules?

I never traded news and the highest winning day was only around 5k for each account
