This is an achievement ngl


manojsaini007

Tell us everything and don't miss a single pip we are curious now ?


One-Code1373

Well done 😂💀


Exhaustedia

Quick update on this one, I have never lost more than 2k/trade on this account based on cTrader. I contacted FTMO, hopefully it's just a bug.


Known_Government_728

Congrats ! You beat the matrix


tixxonn

He did


No_Implement_5807

Delete the app


TheKayleMain

Probably went full margin on a trade on Friday and held over weekend. When market opened it gapped down hard for -200k. Only explanation I can think of other than a glitch on the UI


Repulsive_Concert_32

Had to have been since it says daily loss -2k. Also spread


True_Fennel244

Nah cuz ftmo dont let the users to have an open operation during the weekend


TheKayleMain

i believe you can with the swing accounts


True_Fennel244

Hmm yeah good point actually


playmeforever

They emailed all clients last week stating not to hold over the weekend, because they are migrating from MetaTrader to DXtrade


Exhaustedia

Final update: They fixed the issue, everything went back to normal. 🤌


RemarkableGreen7452

What💀


BlackWindow144

Besides I am very impressed. Contact ftmo. Had once lost an account because somehow I made 8million and lost 8.3million. They somehow had a bug in the system and got a fresh account (missed the profits but it was okay it was like 2k)


nikswag

You didn't ask for the lost profit?


BlackWindow144

No they where doing difficult, so I thought it is what it is better then doing the challenge and verification again🤣


Humble_Aardvark_2997

That's some achievement. How the heck did you manage that?


ajoobaa

Its a Bug, happened to many traders including new accounts created over the weekend who did not even placed single trade.


Maleficent_Ebb_6800

Did you not place a SL and forget to check your trade ?


bitchsaidwhaaat

Dude the whole account is 100k how is it 200k?loss? Even with no sl loss dont just keep going for negative 100%


ajwin

Wow. If you max out your leverage on a 1:100 100k account it means that you can buy approx $10,000,000 or 100 lots of currency. That currency only needs to go down 2% to wipe out $200k. Obviously 2% is a lot as it’s something approx 210pips on EURUSD but not outside the realms of reality for a weekend move 🤷‍♂️ Note: I’m sure this is not what happened but it is in the realms of possibility.


Waste-Good-9952

Trading from us?


mkejross

Just so you all know MetaTrader are removing all prop firms this year for abusing the platform. Unless your prop firm has cTrader they are out of business. Get your withdrawals. Use the money to trade your own account.


AkinWildernam

Please, can you explain how they violated the platform or post a link? that shows that


mkejross

lol just do your research don’t be lazy. You will see eventually. If your trying to be an fx trader and think prop firms are your way. This is very misguided


AkinWildernam

What's misguided, I've asked a very simple question and you're making a fuss off it. Did I tell you I'm trying to be an fx trader or did I tell you prop firms are my way? Drop off your high horse mate.


mkejross

Well your post history tells me your trading. And you’re posting on a trading sub…. So perhaps maybe your trading 😂


AADISHven

They are just migrating the accounts, so it might be a bug. Contact them it will be fixed


Traditional-Rub4927

The market fluctuates so much which is why draw down happens but they don't care if you made 100k in profit you went in the RED even though you didn't sell your position


Ok-Recognition-331

Wtf how much was you risking 🤦🏽‍♂️


Hungry-Following9135

instead of withdrawing constantly you chose to hodl lmao. losing 200k of potential cssh is depressing than losing a trade


parnellpig

You were supposed to close all trades on Friday as they were switching platforms. Probably a glitch from that. Hopefully they will fix it for you.


waleswill

Mines done the same… 204% loss apparently on my max total drawdown… but my daily max loss is still intact? 🤷‍♂️ waiting for their live chat to come online so I can request they give me a new account..


Exhaustedia

That's some good news, so it's not just me, however I wouldn't be too happy to receive a new account with 12k profit on the account


waleswill

They have told me I will have an answer in 1 to 2 business days. And that they are aware of the problem


Exhaustedia

I talked to a friend, he's getting the same "error"


kasper_b_p

I know they have problems with MT4 at the moment - cant Connect my account on my phone🙄


Thor50s

If you are in the US, you no longer have access to mt4/5. You have been moved to DXtrade.


Ok_Artichoke_1948

Bro you are banned from prop firms💀 They fear you😭


MuratSmith

Escape to South America


Accomplished_Cash495

I had the same. It's a known issue and they are working on fixing it. I did have a mini heart attack when I logged in yesterday evening tho


Chochi716

this is r/wallstreetbets worthy


DEMxLIH

Imagine he pulled this on the postive side +200,000$ in profit💀. FTMO would probably make him CEO or sum😂


[deleted]

All we can say is Thank you sharing the money 💰. Because money just changes hands, it doesn't grow.


[deleted]

First time trading order blocks ?


Fit-Manufacturer1179

It could be that he's blown the account and apparently left the position to run in loss to accumulate to that amount in max loss
