So it seems like some of the smaller, lesser-known firms are still operating without problems; accepting US citizens and even using Meta. I have to assume that their time is running short.

DislikedFor US Traders, has anyone ever considered writing a congressional letter and having each representative in his/her state sign it and send it to congress for consideration?Ignored
Disliked{quote}-It has been suggested. And also a change.org petition and someone even mentioned starting a class-action lawsuit, but he was asking for people to send PM's and never answered why when questioned about it. Personally, I am willing to add my voice to the cause. But I must be honest by saying that I am overly cynical about the possibility of invoking any real, positive change. Although I believe that we must first bring awareness to a problem before it can be fixed, I also believe that some problems are tainted with conflicting interests, secret...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Don't get me wrong, but I think that you are using big lot sizes. Way too big. In the last image I saw 40 lots across 2 trades, which works out to 20 lots per trade. That is way too much. That is 10% deposit load (at 100x leverage) on just one trade. I suggest you loosen it up.Ignored
DislikedBlueberry markets also shut down to all props. This affects Funded Engineer (it's a sad setback after all the work they made transitioning from Purple last week) and also MFFx Announcements: https://twitter.com/fundedengineer/s...69968091185457 https://twitter.com/disaster_fx/stat...79423339282820Ignored
Disliked{quote} In my opinion, those firms should have know better. Was Metaquotes just going to skip over Blueberry? "We're out of the prop business, but Blueberry, you may continue." Be careful of these firms pivoting to other brokers/platforms, they are simply buying time to grab more money.Ignored

Disliked{quote} I agree but the comment is valid for all the other ones, even for 5ers or FTMO who also Meta (not through a broker, but Meta anyway)Ignored
Disliked{quote} After I saw woody70 post about a special discount, I dropped some chips and bought a challenge in Funded Peaks on Friday (mainly due to Connor, I must say, and also the Germany based thing which is the unlikely choice of someone who wants to scam). It was a great start with the server frozen most of the Friday afternoon and Discord screaming all around. Platform is MT5 Exford Ltd. Execution is good for lot lots (almost no slippage in EURUSD). Spreads about 0.3/0.4 for EURUSD /...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Yeah Friday was a mess I was in US30 when it froze. When they finally got it up and running it came back up 30 pips over my take profit so was pretty happy with that. Other than that I like it so far.Ignored
Disliked{quote} My SL in EURUSD got screwed by $300 or $400 but I feel no energy to waste time asking compensation. I will have to make that additional to pass.Ignored
Disliked{quote} People were complaining in the discord and they were told to submit a ticket and it would be taken care of.Ignored
Disliked{quote} How's the spread on gold? I might use the discount give them a try next week.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I agree on your point as well. Not sure if your own license and own tech help......I would imagine it does. Once again, the "business in a box" using someone elses tech and a third party broker (which I warned 2 yrs ago would be the demise of this space) should have never existed. With that being said, FTMO and the 5%ers have both moved me to alternate platforms, but non-US are still on Meta, hence the comment regarding your own tech and LPs.Ignored
