@E8Andrew If the rules are clear, no risk interviews and no random payout denials, this could be more attractive than most people think. Traders just want fair rules and to get paid when they earn it π
@dylanthemoney E8 Classic returning is the news we needed ππ₯ You guys have no idea how many traders have been waiting for this. Dont disappoint us this time Please ! π
Let me give you an example. You have a $100K account and have already received your first strike after dropping to $98K (Intern status). You then open a recovery trade, and it barely moves above breakeven, reaching $100,050. Partner status is immediately activated. However, you havenβt adjusted your original SL. The market reverses, and the same trade takes your equity back down to $98K. Wouldnβt that trigger a second strike because your account had already switched from Intern to Partner and then back to Intern?
Thatβs exactly the scenario Iβm concerned about. Even a few seconds above breakeven could activate Partner status and expose traders to another strike. Am I missing something?
This is exactly the scenario I was concerned about. I still believe automatic trade closure at breakeven should remain the default, with leaving trades open as an optional choice.
Imagine a trader recovering from Intern to Partner, but their open trade pushes them back into Intern seconds later because of market volatility. They could receive another strike even though the Partner status was activated only moments earlier. This will inevitably create confusion and complaints.
Time-stamping equity helps, but it doesnβt eliminate every dispute. Different brokers can record different price levels because of differences in liquidity, spreads and price feeds. Some traders may even question whether the market actually reached the level recorded by MFF.
My suggestion is to close recovery trades automatically by default, then let experienced traders opt to keep them open. That gives traders flexibility while protecting MFF from unnecessary disputes. Ultimately, clarity and consistency in how status changes are handled will build trust. π€
Thatβs a great idea! You could even take it a step further and offer it as an optional add-on at checkout or a reward for loyal traders. That way, traders can choose the experience that suits their trading style, while others can unlock it through their performance. More flexibility and choice is always a win for the community. Looking forward to seeing it implemented! π€π₯
Time-stamping equity will definitely help, but I still think you could face quite a few complaints, especially from traders who experience double strikes during volatile market conditions. I know you are trying to provide the best possible experience, but perhaps itβs worth keeping automatic trade closure for now and introducing the option to leave trades open once traders have become more familiar with the programme. Just a thought! π§
@PropJoshD U have explained the rules well enough. Those willing to understand will get it. At the end of the day, payouts speak louder than anything. I donβt mind strict rules as long as theyβre fair, transparent and we get paid what we earn. π€π―
@dylanthemoney@dylanthemoney Back in the day, E8 Classic was the best, no doubt! π₯ Bring it back and Iβll be first in line to sign up. Letβs bring back the golden days Please π
@PropJoshD@shadow_phant0m_@HaiderMFF Having 3 strikes instead of 2 would be much better, as it gives us more room to recover before breaching the funded account. Also, would you consider allowing traders to pay a fee to reset their strikes, limited to perhaps 3 resets per account? This could be amazing
