Looking for the "big win" is not consistency. And if someone is in RTP it is for a reason.
Be consistent. Stack up the wins. The stats show that it works, which is why Topstep has it.
Get to Live Funded where there is no consistency and let that runner run. Rules are rules. You can always fund your own Live account with you own money and trade however you wish. Which is actually the end goal for all anyway.
@themishaaaa@MichaelPatak Consistency stops the yolo trader who is simply trying to get lucky. Which is probably what got them into RTP to begin with. "R" in RTP stands for Responsible. Yolo is not responsible trading.
TIP: You may want to bookmark this @Topstep web page and watch it closely over the next few weeks... or next week... or this week... π

@FundedFanatic@TopstepMick Ah, all in good fun! I have nothing but respect and admiration for all those I work with on a daily basis.
Glad the TPO/chart config is working for you!
DID YOU KNOW: At the bottom left of #TopstepX there is an icon for "Show Object Tree". Click that to open the panel and easily show/hide/delete indicators - or drag them up and down, which moves them to the foreground or background.
It's in the terms of service. Read the rules. Additionally, and statistically, significantly more traders lose when the market is hitting limit down than those who win. Maybe not this time for you because it was green pnl, but the majority of the time, the traders were protected from losses. So, yeah, we are looking out for traders.
More often than not, far more, big moves turn into big losses for traders.
Oh, another 2% down and the CME would halt EVERYONE from trading.
