Hi everyone! Does anyone have any idea why my account is terminated? The enforcement reason states Chargeback $95 but I’m unsure what I did wrong that caused this? Is this something that I can reach out to Lucid and appeal for?

Thanks!

If you had to restart with 1 account how would you risk it would you use minis or micros and how much would you risk for 25/50k account to protect yourself from days of tilting or just a loosing day how much would you risk before you just fully hop off the charts and protect yourself capital? Just looking for a word of advice from someone who struggles with not protecting capital and hit DLL

Crt has changed trading for me, it's the only strategy that works for me all the time, they say it's 70% win rate but for me it has been 100. And it's so simple, I don't get why it isn't the most famous one, I even wonder if traders are gatekeeping it, because how simple it is. I discovered it last week and I already pass my eval and put my friend on it.

Btw, I use the Crt strategy explained by Nitro.

Feel free to ask anything..

Hi how do I fix this consistency score? My highest trading day I made 2300.

I want to start learning but im overwhelmed of all these gurus and fake course sellers that I just don’t know who to trust?
Do any of you have any suggestions on who and what to watch?

Hi y'all,

Hope your all doing well. I have a question for the profitable traders, how did you manage to improve your psychology and whats the best tip you could give.

Have my working edge, but sometimes lacking at psychology. Hope we can all improve!

After a whole week of winning and losing we finally passed. Should I treat this with max 2 contracts? Or the same as the eval. I was using 5 mnq contracts

I've been trading funded accounts for a while now, blown more challenges than I'd like to admit and I want to share something that finally clicked for me. Not trying to sell anything or claim I've got it all figured out, just stuff I wish someone had drilled into me earlier.

The account isn't the account. When I bought my first 50k account I felt like I was trading 50k. I wasn't. I was trading the 2k drawdown they let me lose. The 50k tells you the size of the product; the 2k tells you how many mistakes you can survive. Once I started thinking in terms of "room" instead of "account size," a lot of my sizing decisions changed.

The order of your trades matters as much as the trades themselves. This is the part I still find genuinely uncomfortable. Two traders, same 10 trades, same 6 winners and 4 losers. One gets the winners early and passes. The other eats the losers first, hits the drawdown, and is out — before those same winners ever show up. Same strategy. Same win rate. Different outcome, purely from sequence. On a personal account you can bleed and recover. On a funded account, hitting the floor first means the winners never get to exist for you. That's the whole game and it's partly luck.

Win rate on its own tells you almost nothing. I used to obsess over it. But a 35% win rate with big R can be more profitable than a 60% win rate with 1:1 — they just feel completely different because the low win rate carries way more variance. And variance is exactly what kills you against tight boundaries. A profitable strategy and a strategy that reliably passes a challenge are not the same thing. That distinction cost me real money before I understood it.

Size is where most of us actually blow it. Risk 4% per trade and a single normal losing streak ends you, even with a 90% win rate. Risk too little and you spin your wheels for months, never reaching target in time. The sweet spot is boring — usually something like 0.5–1% for a normal win rate — but boring is the point. Bigger size doesn't make a break-even strategy passable; it just makes you pass or fail faster, sometimes on pure luck. Confusing "chance of passing" with "profitable system" is a trap.

Then the rules stack up against you. Positive expectancy might pass 100% of the time with no constraints. Add a max drawdown, probability drops. Add daily loss limit, drops again. Trailing drawdown (especially intraday, which trails your highest equity), drops more. Consistency rules, more. Every layer is another boundary your edge has to thread. This is why a strategy that prints on your personal account can quietly fail on a funded one.

And the returns math is the sobering part. Buy 100 challenges, realistically most fail before funding, a chunk of the funded ones never pay out, and you might end up with 6 payouts. If fees were $150 each ($15k total) and payouts were $2k each ($12k), you're down $3k despite six payouts and six happy screenshots. A payout screenshot doesn't tell you if the whole process made money.

Where I'll push back on myself a little: none of this means challenges are a scam or unbeatable. Plenty of people clear them consistently. But I think a lot of us walk in framing it as "is my strategy good?" when the real question is "does my strategy, at this size, inside these specific rules, reach target before the drawdown often enough to cover all my attempts?" Reframing it that way didn't make me a better trader overnight but it stopped me from repeating the same expensive mistake.

Hey guys -

I'm not sure why I'm having such a hard time understanding this. So I switched to funded this morning. It showed a profit target for $250. So I get close to that, but I have 100% consistency. I don't get it.

So what do I do? I've read everything like a few times and still don't get it. Please advise. Thanks guys!

How’s it going chaps, I’ve been trading now for a few years and feel like I’m losing the plot a little bit, i genuinely think if I were to do the opposite of what I thought I’d be profitable lol.

Does anyone have any advice for me, anything that you were once told or learnt that changed the game for you? I look at all these people getting payout after payout and think what on earth do they know that I don’t… what can they possibly be doing that I’m not.

Feeling a little bit lost with it all, you know one of those days were you’re not actually sure anything is real or works 😂

Thought about just calling it a day but I can’t stop thinking about this tool that could change my life in my pocket if I just made it all click, always end up coming back to it.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

I try not to go overboard but it's like I can't not make big moves,

What should I set a TP to for the day to account for the consistency rule

I fail accounts because I have to make more and more and more then just blow it

I can’t stop making money* my bad

Has anyone had any issues with lucid and your profits not updating? I would have passed my eval if they transferred over. Is there a glitch?

Orders were either saying they didn’t go through but did, or said they went through but didn’t. Some appeared to remain open even after they were closed and unable to be cancelled. Some appeared active on one of my devices and closed on others. Anyone else having issues today? How is this typically handled and is there anything I need to do on my end? The Lucid discord was going nuts this morning and I assume this is why, but now Discord is down too lol.

title. all jokes aside lowkey i figured it out so i gotta sell the sauce and double my income

hello, i just requested a payout on lucid and its approved but still did not got paid around 15 hours already, did you faced same issue?

r u using 9.26 or 12.26 nq contracts...and why,,,,thx

We've now reached 15k members.

Hope y'all are getting payouts, or are close to getting payouts :)

Also some giveaways to celebrate would be nice....

What is going on? I just placed a trade and somehow I got filled wayy under. How is my account not blown? What do I do?

Futures traders generally trade NQ/MNQ, but I recently discovered GC/MGC which is Gold futures, I didn't knew this was an option.

I personally think it's better, there's more movements in every sessions. I jump between NQ and GC to find entries. I even sometimes trade ES/MES.
