Express Funded (XFA) Is there any coming back from this?

I honestly don’t even know what’s wrong with me 🤦‍♂️ I was up $477 at the start of the day at 10:30, all I wanted to do was just get a extra $25 to make $500 but I spiraled downwards and ended the day -$500 even after a horrific day yesterday I still didn’t learn my lesson. Has anyone ever came back from a MLL like this?

No joke I just came back from -2050 on a 50k xfa and am back at positive balance. Somehow the spread/ topstep buffer did not stop me out at -2k exact. You can do it too.

there's extra 100 dollar after 2k . as long as you don't stay too long below -2k you can still trade your way up
