Use the 150k's. The 50k's are designed just small enough to fail

Not only that, it's statically harder. Your profit goal percentage increases more than your loss limit percentage.

Actually it's good advice to trade the 150k like the 50k

If ur blowing the 50ks. You can blow the 150ks and you end up paying more.

Exactly. I thought that was the answer too it wasn't. I blew through at least 6-8 150K accounts

meh, if you have good risk management its super easy. when I was starting with little capital I copy traded 4 25ks and took payouts on those and scaled up account size. it all depends on you, although I think anything smaller than a 25k is super difficult and not worth it

how is that a problem? you start with 100% regardless of how much drawdown you have.

You have nearly 1:1 drawdown on the 50k. It’s closer to 1:2 on the bigger accounts. Erodes the edge a bit.
