My wife bought me a ring from Jaxxon as a gift. The listing described it as silver, but when it arrived it was actually tungsten — not silver at all. It also didn't fit, and their advice was to take it to a local jeweler to have it resized. Any jeweler could have told them that this type of material can't be resized like silver can.

When we explained the mix-up and asked for a replacement in the correct material, Jaxxon refused. The only "solution" they offered was a gift card toward a future purchase — which isn't a fix when the issue is that the item wasn't what was advertised in the first place, and we have no interest in ordering from them again.

If you're considering ordering from them, double check the actual material of what you're buying, and know that "customer satisfaction" here means a gift card, not making an inaccurate order right.

Let’s say someone has 10 funded accounts across 10 different prop firms, trading ES.
Each account makes just +2 points per day (~$100 per account), and the trades are then copied across all accounts.
In theory, that would be about $1,000/day total profit.
My question is:
Is this actually doable in practice, or does it break down because of execution, risk limits, or prop firm rules?
Specifically:
Would copy trading even work reliably across multiple prop accounts?
Would slippage and fills make this unrealistic?
Do prop firms have rules that would flag or restrict this kind of setup?
Or is this just one of those “sounds good on paper but doesn’t scale” ideas?
Curious to hear from people who’ve tried scaling or running multiple funded accounts.

Hey everyone,

I currently trade using ThinkorSwim (for options) and TopstepX (for futures).

My style is pretty simple:

• I trade index futures (mostly intraday)
• I usually take 2–3 trades per day max
• I also swing trade options in TOS

Recently, I’ve been seeing a lot about order flow (DOM, footprint, Bookmap, etc.), and it got me thinking…

Am I missing anything by not using order flow?

Since I’m not scalping and I don’t take a lot of trades, I rely mostly on:

• Chart structure
• Levels
• Price action

I’m not currently using DOM or footprint tools at all.

So I’d really like to hear from people who:

• Trade indexes (ES/MES/NQ)
• Use or don’t use order flow

- Do you think order flow actually adds an edge for someone with my style?
- Or is it more useful for scalpers / fast traders?

Trying to figure out if this is something worth learning or just unnecessary complexity for how I trade.

Appreciate any insight

Is there a calendar, or how can I follow the pre- and post-market sessions on Discord? I used to get notified and watch them, and I didn’t change any settings.
