This is the second time I've been falsely stopped out on my PDLL, and it's costing me big. This time: $682 per account × 2 = $1,364 total, as price hit my target.
Stopped out at 24837, but the actual low after entry was only 24836.25. Why am I getting stopped without price ever reaching my PDLL limit, and why does the alert show a false amounts?
Last time I lost $200 and got offered a free cobine reset, please don't suggest that again. I need a proper explanation and resolution this time.
Please investigate and make this right I have video recodings of both times this has happend.
Thank you.

Patience really paid off on this one. I could have held longer toward the previous day's high, but I closed it a bit early. Still, I'm pretty impressed with how the trade played out overall.
With NFP dropping tomorrow, I didn't want to stay exposed in the market for too long and risk any big volatility swing. Solid, disciplined exit in my book.

Break-even day locked in on the 50k XFA @Topstep.
Grabbed a few longs, but stops got moved too aggressively and I got stopped out a few times.
Account stays flat, zero damage. Biggest win? No tilt, no revenge entries—stayed ice cold.
Markets always give more setups. Onward and upward. 💪📈
This week's US economic calendar is loaded with high-impact data (delayed NFP release due to shutdown).
NFP Wednesday + CPI Friday = serious volatility potential.
Be careful out there, risk management on point!
@I_Am_The_ICT Couldn't agree more. These gamblers just want to full-port prop firms with the volatility giving them more leverage, and now that they can't, they're just making a scene for attention.

Strong discipline on the entry, very patient, waited for clear confirmation before pulling the trigger.
Made a conscious effort to extend the hold toward a better TP target this time.
Exited manually in the end, but still locked in solid profits.
Progress feels real.💪

@Quantyyyyyy I typically wait for a 1H or 15min PD array to get engaged first. Once that's aligned, I drop to the 1min for confirmation signals, then execute from there.

Should’ve been more patient and let it run to my targets, price got choppy, so I closed earlier than planned. Still locked in profits. Winning day regardless. 💰
