Now it makes more sense why you rushed to move me to live. @ajtradinglucid
Because it’s obviously better for you to transition me with around 1,900 total instead of 5 accounts with 4,500 drawdown each under the new structure.
Lucid just launched a new live plan where if you had 5 accounts you now get 5x150k live accounts with 4,500 drawdown each.
Two days before that rollout I get moved with around 1,900 while I still had room to trade.
I asked if I qualify for the new structure and the response was
“You don’t have new options… decide between the options presented before your Twitter tirade.”
So now business decisions are influenced by what someone posts on Twitter?
If the structure applies to the same account profile it should apply consistently simple as that.
PS
You said you “saved my life” because I supposedly had 380 left in drawdown.
I posted a screenshot showing I had 2,380 left per account
Still waiting on that response. @ajtradinglucid
🚨 I Just Got Forced Into “Live” With Less Money Than I Paid — @TradingLucid , Explain This. 🚨 @ajtradinglucid
Last week I bought 5 × $150K S2F accounts.
Total paid: $2,600.
After just 3 trading days, my balances were under $400 profit per account.
Then I receive an email saying I’m being moved to LIVE.
Moved to live… with $1,900.
That’s LESS than what I paid to buy the accounts.
Let that sink in.
• Paid $2,600
• Traded 3 days
• Barely built profit
• Forced into live
• With reduced effective capital
@TradingLucid — how does this make sense?
If this is policy, explain it.
If this is an error, fix it.
I expect my accounts restored under the original terms I purchased.
Traders deserve transparency.
🚨 Exposing the Topstep Scam 🚨
In this post, I’m exposing how Topstep is setting traders up for failure. They’re making it more profitable for themselves to move traders to live accounts rather than paying out what’s owed. Here’s the breakdown:
Let’s say you buy five $150k accounts and grow each to a $10k balance. Originally, you’d be able to withdraw half of that—$25k in total. But now, Topstep moves you to a live account and only gives you 20% of the profits, which would be $10k. Instead of the $25k you should’ve gotten, you only get $10k, and you can’t even withdraw that immediately—you have to earn it all over again from there.
To scale up and access that original $50k balance, you’d need to double your $10k account, which is nearly impossible with proper risk management. They’re essentially setting you up to lose that $10k and everything else. Topstep is dodging a $25k payout, giving you $10k that you can’t touch, and pushing you into a scenario where you’re likely to burn through your account.
This is a blatant trap. Topstep is digging its own grave by alienating traders. I hope they realize this before it’s too late because no one will stick around once they catch on. 📉
@MichaelPatak@dnltrader98 Topstep just closed 2 of my XFA's and put my accounts on pause due to "hedging" between a funded account and an evaluation account. That doesn't make any sense and this smells really bad I know I'm not the only one with this situation.
So i followed the rules make the money following the 20% consistency rule.request 3 payouts that has been paid on my 3x 150k and you decided not to move me live but instead you closed my account and give me a 100k account
@TopOneFutures@PropFirmMedia
Why are people so judgmental with nothing going on in their lives positive? I need answers, it’s some real crab in the barrel people pushing this tear your own people down narrative… it’s like looting your own community… focusing on yourself is very rewarding!
