Old school share/ When I say we started the industry I wasn’t kidding. We started it in 2010. Zero others were doing this. It started as a scouting agency. We still scout in our Trading Combine & we still take traders LIVE real money, since day 1. What a ride! Join us
@Topstep
Here I’ll make is easy for ya. We ran this last year. Probably will fire it up again. We been simple, objective and doing this for almost 15 years! Yep 15 years, just saying.

@Topstep

Who’s ready to wake up on Monday and do it all over again but better?! That’s the trader mentality. Jab away week after week. Filling up the think tank daily even if you are stalling out growing the account. It’s a marathon. Every day is anew, go seize your day. See ya tomorrow!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow (an announcer voice of course) .. We will be introducing something I’m trying out on the fly but it has legs to stay (I think). It’s called the Topstep VIP Experience.. Sounds expensive right?! Well it’s free. Tune into TopstepTV tomorrow for more
Fact check/
@Tradovate
& Rithmic platforms have been up & working great all day today, yesterday & weeks prior here
@Topstep
contrary to a false statement made by another firm when responding about THEIR issues saying they were also issues every other prop firm had as well - nope
JUST 1 year ago today we made a move that changed everything. Kudos to the Topstep team for delivering, opening the door & welcoming new passionate & aspiring futures traders into the
@Topstep
community. Can’t wait to see where the next year will take us all!!! Let’s go!! 🚀 💪
Cool cats 😎 stopping by the Topstep office … Charles a funded trader AND took a $2k payout AND is trading while in college now has a sweet Topstep backpack, socks, a notebook for journaling and ski goggle covers. We hook you up in more ways than one
@Topstep

Hearing rumors of Rithmic issues at other prop firms/ here at
@Topstep
there are NO ISSUES being reported, Rithmic is running fine. Happy Friday! To those still trading, I’d recommend to call it a week! Go —> ⛳️ 🏌️♂️ 🏊 🛥️ 🏀 🎾 ⚽️ 🪂 ⛷️ 🏈 🍻 🍸 🏖️
Can ya’ll quit messing around with all these random companies that pop up. Stick with reputable, legit, trustworthy and trader developing and helping firms ..
For FX it’s
@FTMO_com
For Futures it’s
@Topstep
Find a home and stick with it. Stop chasing the next shiny object
@TempoICT
@ApexTradeFund
I don’t know why you guys are still messing around with uncertainty… and for what!? Go to tradeday or Earn2trade… hell don’t even go to Topstep which is my firm. Just go somewhere else with an objective payout policy. This subjective stuff you all put up with I don’t get.
Woke up this morning w/ Payout Policy on my mind. With all the talk about other firms adding complexity, I had a fun idea to get ChatGPT’s opinion around which is THE BEST FOR THE TRADER. Take a look.. Did AI get it right? Why or why not?
@MyFundedFutures
Have fun with this while you can. You’ve got 45 days left before we (Topstep) completely obliterate the industry w/ instant realtime support, with a human, 24/7! 💪 until then, yep
@Topstep
has very slow response times.
Calling all streamers/ Dakota, THE best LIVE Futures Trader in the industry & home grown developed at
@Topstep
is looking to take on any one of ya’ll for a head2head P&L challenge over a 3 month period. Sim streamers are welcomed (fyi sim has MUCH EASIER fills). Let’s go!!
Rumor Mill/ Someone here has a $10m a month (yes $10m a month) MARKETING SPEND for ads & buying influencers - hint they are having a ton of platform issues right now & denying payouts while changing payout rules & calling their traders scammers & schemers. $0 is

@MattLeech
@MyFundedFutures
had this sent to me a few times this week. Help us understand. Deep fake? Or an actual convo? If anyone else has insight on this share for transparency sake. Just trying to gain clarity. Making no claims Hope it’s fake
😎Topstep’s Payout Club! Giving mad props to our Funded Traders everyday just like this, delivered to your door step on us! Quit messing around w/ firms that have no clue how to help you become a better trader, don’t respect u and play into your fomo, or get rich quick hunger.
London session on
@Topstep
TV starts on Tuesday 9:30am London / 3:30am CT
The stream will be 90 mins into the London session because I don't trade the open. In fact most of my London trades are from 10am.
So rumor has it a bunch of wild updates with new features are coming to TopstepX and a much requested program improvement … all happening here really really soon. Man the folks at
@Topstep
continually innovate .. heard that rumor too.
@thebrianstonk
Keep buying them evals. Does nothing to become a better trader but does swiftly funnel money out of your credit card and into the hope machine firm. Slow down! I implore u all. YOLO has no place in trading & shortcuts don’t exist. Work hard & steady goes the ship as you develop
With what has recently transpired w/ the attempted assassination on a “Republican” presidential candidate, do the equity indexes

s&p Nasdaq, Dow Jones, open higher OR lower, and why? As a TRADER this is where our thinking needs to be. How do markets react to this?
💪 The top 1% on YouTube! Out of 51 million channels, only ~500K have more than 100K subscribers. Engagement is sick considering we get about 30 to 50k views A DAY on TopstepTV when we stream live. Ya got 2 tune in! Here’s this week’s TV Guide:
@Wepth
@Topstep
Sorry. FIVE is enough and our end. Our goal is to prep traders for live trading, 5 is already pushing enough on that mission. Wanting more and more and giving it (20 acct bs) installs bad habits and a mindset we don’t want our traders developing
@PropFirmMatch
@fundedengineer
Stop messing around with anyone except the two firms that have been around and started the industry for Futures and the pioneer that created the funding space
@Topstep
and
@FTMO_com
who was first in FX. Done. That’s all you need.
@JBearTrades
@Topstep
Regarding dca- it’s not even a trading terminology it’s an investing word. Dollar cost average?? That’s the other firm who knows nothing about active trading word they use. Traders have zones. Not just one price level. So we will allow traders to average into their zones.
While you were sleeping Dakota,
@Topstep
live funded trader & arguably THE best futures trader in prop right now, was slapping on 30 lots in the NQ. We trade REAL money. Quit playing games at the SIM forever firms. Come over & be a REAL trader with us!
Bravo! You can’t get much better than this. Funny & factual, a must watch! 🍿 fyi my comments last few weeks on this topic were never a plug 4 Topstep, it was all about & still is about don’t f’n treat your traders like shit. U know who I’m talking about. Moving on. Great vid!
Apex situation.... Ghost orders failing traders who aren't even at their computer, insane mods on power trips, horrible customer service, payouts being denied, TRADES BEING OPENED BY THEMSELVES, "new" rules, 1 month now of crazy issues, and so much more.
it is going to be a BIG summer for our traders. Rolling out the next BIG thing, live on TopstepTV™. 🔥😎💯
go to link below, read up on this weeks lineup, then smash SUBSCRIBE. TV viewers get exclusive deals and are first to know about new features!
No trading, just hiking and staying present in Mother Nature tomorrow. Trading gods have nothing on me! Time to chill. Have a good Wednesday being a trader while not trading. Best lifestyle you can earn!

At
@Topstep
… More traders funded than ever. Better traders trading at the funded level than ever. Listen this is simple and stop this bs - YOU DO NOT HAVE A MONEY ISSUE IF YOU ACTUALLY ARE A REAL PROP FIRM THAT TAKES TRADERS LIVE. I’m done.
@FuturesFlow
Oh no this has been on the drawing board for quite some time. We have much more coming out. The drumbeat starts all summer long, release after release after release. This has been in the work for quite some time. Started with TopstepX launch to lay foundation
@thebrianstonk
Yep. I hear that. We’ll start with upping it to five next weeks. So goes the rumor. But seriously if you can’t be profitable with one please do not leverage more accounts until you can crush it with one. Patience will pay off trust me.
Slow Support Response/ We are losing the game to providing the best support. This sucks. I am on it. We have HUGE fix coming very very soon. Until then you will have to wait a little bit longer for support to fix your ticket. Tune in today, Ask questions-
Sounds about right… traders seek value! Check out the new Performance Dashboard on TopstepX. It just launched today. Your stats updating realtime & an AI generated feedback coach. Coach T just came to life!! Oh and ya we still do discounts but only on TopstepTV - tune in daily!
@MattLeech
Update/ The video above is our house account getting liquidated for hitting its DLL. I was explaining that our auto liquidation tool is set past your displayed loss limit on your screen so that when it does liquidate it is well past your set Loss Limit. Hope that helps explain.

If you take traders live w/ real money and have their orders go to real regulated exchanges like CME, there shouldn’t be a concern in the world. Hence no concern at

The god father of trading psychology
@steenbab
on TopstepTV this week. If you are stuck in your trading. Need a pick me up boost to your psyche or just better understand your emotions and what drives trading behaviors ya gotta tune in this week!!
Transparency update/ I misspoke, we did just fire up this ad with a $20k a month budget. We figure folks need to know that a simple objective payout policy & treating your traders with respect DOES exist somewhere in this great prop firm industry. BUT prior, our ad budget was $0
@casper_smc
It’s 1000% real trading real money you’re a real professional at
@Topstep

@SageMFFU
Let’s not start a back and forth. I will have to re-remind the community of the legit screen shot floating around of you all asking a vendor to game their bot they sell so your traders fail with you. Im moving on. You should to.
Bananas 🍌 !! live real-time real money size trading.. no sim accounts like the other YouTubers .. formulating trade ideas on the fly with community input … and best of all, nobody cares about sitting on a lambo … funny how that works when trading w/ real traders!
@marketsugarbaby
Appreciate it. Transparency plays a big role in this industry. That’s why we started TopstepTV. Put the leaders of Topstep on live. Take questions while also talk shop and showcase all the traders we are backing their real performance on real money live prop accts
Question: Over an 800 point rally in just 4 tradings days in the Nascrack (you know what I mean) … did you catch any of this that helped you get funded? Take a payout? Or did you blow up your prop account, and or Personal brokerage account?
Remember remember remember to JOURNAL.. shorten that learning curve.. oh ya the journal feature is built into your TopstepX trading platform.. mor ne features coming to the TopstepX trading platform in the coming weeks if not sooner.
@theOHLCtrader
@MattLeech
@MyFundedFutures
I care bc this industry is important 2 have for anyone wanting 2 give trading a try w/o risking their kids college fund. For the aspiring traders to create a new income stream. For brokerages & exchanges who benefit when we all manage risk better. Bad actors work against all that
@mayor_wright
and run topstep, and be on air and have a life and be a dad etc. Nah. I proved my worth trading since 1997. Looking to back traders since 2010. We have that challenge (The Trading Combine) built for you… and I trade live with our funded traders on TopstepTV weekly.
@WielandTrades
Yep real traders everyday.. like a real trader if you hit your REAL MONEY DLL, you either call it a day or trade in a practice or Combine. I believe that’s what Dakota did in currently traveling. But nice trading in your SIM Funded. Would love to see you trading live REAL money
@PFRT_X
@fundingpips
Stop waiting for these firms to pay. Get with it and respect your time and energy as a trader. Go to trusted firms that have been around for a long time.

@JBearTrades
@Topstep
Regarding 5 winning days. We aren’t changing that. That is a huge helper to traders putting up w’s before taking a payout which is good for them. It helps them pad account so when you take payout you have money left and don’t cycle back to Trading Combine.
@I_Am_The_ICT
@Topstep
$130k is largest total thus far. Have a good handful of top performers right now with payouts in excess of $100,000 nipping at the heels of this record.
Oh snap!!

We have been trying to get ahold of Cameron. We have bounced email. Tried calling. We need Cameron to send us his ACH / Wire info. He has ignored all of our emails, his phone number says 'the wrong number', we have no way to contact him."
Question - besides money- what or who got you into trading? Mine was watching Trading Places the movie at 16 and being around farmers who talked corn prices.
If you have any sort of following or influence, please do your research on the companies/ people you partner with.
Stop promoting things just because you’re getting a paycheck.
I’ve gotten offers from multiple brokers, prop firms etc for over $200k+ a month to promote them
Ok my support team just texted. Getting yelled at. We have to cap at the first 50 (fifty) to answer correctly. Will have our intern double checking the first 50. They then will provide the password you need to say to our support team when you reach out when ready to jump in!
@Joeytrades11
@Topstep
Majorly awesome improvements continue to come all year long. Literally. Oh and we won’t change the payou policy on you making it subjective and sit through an hour long video to learn how they will deny you. That’s not use. So choose wisely.
Question: did ole’ Hello Kitty Keith create a genius new pump and dump strategy that’s totally legal? $gme
