Goatfunded Denied a $ payout after crushing 5%+ profit
19-year-old funded trader snrmuna just dropped a raw, no-excuses update on his Goat Funded Trader experience.
He hit the profit target cleanly with tight stops under 1% risk… but his payout was rejected for breaching the prop firm’s margin rule. High position sizing (e.g. 0.1 lots on a $5k account) ate up ~86% of available margin — even though overall risk looked solid.
He owns it 100%, calls it a brutal but valuable lesson, and is already tweaking his strategy for the next one.
This is a trader taking full responsibility for his actions. @GoatFunded
PropFirm: You engaged in coordinated trading. Your payout is rejected and your account is permanently disabled.
Trader: Sir, where's the proof?
PropFirm: Trust us, man
That's exactly what @atlasfunded did.
They rejected this trader payout, accused him of coordinated trading and permanently disabled his account – yet failed to provide any clear evidence.
Hey @LAntonioAF –
If this trader actually violated any rule, then provide transparent and verified proof.
Traders don't believe in "Trust me" source. They believe in evidence.
Here's the COO blatantly lying about it as well.
Payout caps got cut up to 2k less on the 50k account and 1k less on the 100k account.
But you can't complain about it, then the COO will just close your account.
Where are the prop firm pages reporting this? Scared?
Trust Us Bro™ - AtlasFunded Investigation Department 💀
@atlasfunded@CianHansardAF claims this trader's ( @Names_Chima ) account had a device match and repeated IP overlaps with 3 other traders.
The trader says nobody else ever accessed his account and he even stopped trading 2 months ago while waiting for his payout.
Now here's the question:
Why are you asking the trader to provide a "solid explanation"?
An explanation of what exactly?
He is denying that anyone else accessed his account.
What proof can he possibly provide for something he claims never happened?
YOU are the one denying the payout.
Therefore, the burden of proof is on YOU.
So please answer:
• What are the 3 accounts involved?
• What are the IP addresses?
• Which countries, states and cities were these logins from?
• On what dates and times did these overlaps occur?
• How many times did they happen?
• What evidence proves account sharing instead of false positives?
Simply saying "this is our final decision" isn't evidence.
And no, a cropped screenshot with "Device cc9XXXXXX76a" is not proof.
The funny part?
This isn't the first complaint.
There are countless traders on X and Trustpilot reporting the exact same story:
"Device match."
"IP overlap."
"Payout denied."
So once again:
If @atlasfunded has undeniable evidence, why are they asking the trader to prove his innocence instead of proving his guilt?
Because in every serious investigation, the accuser provides the evidence.
Not the accused. 👀
#TrustedPropHub 🚨
Apex offered 1 $3k drawdown live acct or opt out & take $3k payout.
You can only take out profits above $3,100 and its a 90/10 split.
I opted out.
Rather put $3k in my own live acct without split or just buy more prop accts.
Only downside is losing $ in their vault. Oh well..
My Worst Experience with Any Prop Firm – Goat Funded Trader
This is my first account with GFT. I borrowed money to purchase it after months without an account. I traded independently and was expecting my $6000 payout on the $100k instant funded account.
Only to request for payout and my account was flagged for alleged copy trading. Even one of their own affiliates @just__teddyy admitted it looked like an automated system error.
I sent multiple emails to the Risk Team and Support for over 8 days — total silence. Then they finally replied saying my account has been permanently removed because I “violated platform policies.��� Not because of the copy trading allegation again.
$6,000 payout denied. $100k account blocked. All based on inaccurate evidence.
This is the worst first experience I’ve ever had with any prop firm. Other traders (especially influencers) get their cases quickly resolved, while regular people like me are completely neglected and ignored.
Traders put in serious effort, risk their money, only to have everything wasted.
God, please deliver us from wasted efforts in this industry
I’m deeply disappointed in Goat Funded Trader. Be careful before joining.
@GoatFunded
@EdwardXLreal
Sore losers cum scammers @BlueberryFunded can't even pay a 3 digit payout.
I'd advise everyone to stay away from them. Please help to repost the original post from @TheGreatBandoo to create more awareness.
Time isn't free at all and the trader gave it his all to pass and get to a payout, only to be scammed.
@BlueberryFunded care to explain yourselves for this payout denial?
🚨🚨🚨‼️‼️⁉️@fundingpips , WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?! ⁉️⁉️‼️‼️🚨🚨🚨
I passed PHASE 1 ✅
I passed PHASE 2 ✅
I followed all the rules ✅
I invested my time
I invested my money
I trusted FundingPips
AND ONCE I REACHED THE FUNDED STAGE… 🚨❌
➡️ “Duplicate account”
So now I’m being denied my funded account.
BUT WAIT… ⁉️
🚨 If this account was ineligible, why was I allowed to purchase challenges on it?
🚨 Why was I allowed to keep paying for challenges?
🚨 Why was I allowed to trade without a single warning?
🚨 Why wait until I successfully complete the evaluation before suddenly deciding the account is not eligible?
🚨 And why were all the previous challenges purchased on this account never refunded if they were supposedly ineligible as well?
Today, it feels like an excuse is being used once the challenge is passed in order to avoid granting the funded account. 🚨
I followed the rules.
I used my own identity.
I passed the evaluation.
And despite all of that, no funded account. ❌
I am not asking to bypass the rules.
I am simply asking for my funded account to be transferred to my already verified and eligible account, instead of having it removed.
FundingPips, I trusted you, but this situation has been extremely disappointing.
I sincerely hope @khldfx can review this case and help find a fair solution.
🔁 PLEASE SHARE so the trading community can see what’s happening.
Some prop firms think the challenge ends after passing the evaluation.
No.
The real challenge begins when traders start asking questions.
The answers are going to be interesting.
👀
A prop firm's biggest risk isn't market volatility.
It's the day traders stop staying silent.
Every screenshot has a story.
Every story has a timestamp.
And every timestamp leaves a trail.
2026 is the year prop firms fear one thing:
Evidence.
Not opinions.
Not rumors.
Screenshots.
Trade history.
Payout records.
The truth travels faster than marketing.
#PropFirmreport#Forex
To every prop firm cutting corners:
We're watching.
Every denied payout.
Every hidden rule.
Every suspicious breach.
One trader can be ignored.
Thousands cannot.
Tick tock. ⏳
#PropFirmreport#Forex
Prop firms be like:
Trader loses account 7 times:
“Welcome back ❤️”
Trader finally becomes profitable:
⚠️ “Risk management concern”
⚠️ “Consistency issue”
⚠️ “Account under review”
Amazing business model.
The better the trader…
the more dangerous he becomes to the company 🚨
