Licensing / regulation is the only realistic way to raise the barriers of entry.
-Since props are not regulated in the same way as brokers, then licensing seems like the more realistic approach. But even with licensing, criteria must first be defined in order to discern eligibility. I'm not quite sure what sort of requirements, short of those that are financial in nature, could be used here.

Pay-to-play seems to be the popular go-to. Perhaps having a minimum 1M insurance fund that sits in escrow could present a nice barrier-to-entry in order to weed out scammers.

Yea raising the barrier will lead to failure of industry. Look at what happened to Forex prop firms.
The more you regulate more shitty price will become less participants. Look at FTMO once considered as free style wrestlers has become caged parrot with all possible gambling rules. Do you think they like those rules (no but they have to as there is less registration)
The problem with regulation is they dont do things moderately. Over regulation will lead to make things more crappy look at forex industry in US, Canada. Does it makes trader profitable? (I bet there will be same loss making traders percentage wise 10-20 years back without regulation)

{quote} What will be rejection criteria. One cannot randomly reject prop firms. In order to reject new ones they need to come up with criteria like financial statements etc. I doubt anyone except APEX will be ready to give. Also why they will reduce their own income?
In order to start a prop firm, one should need to provide a business model and capital requirements which display the ability to pay.....this is where the forex prop "tech providers" caused all of the problems. You are correct, they just took the money and provided the business in a box solution.....it didn't work out FOR ANYONE in the long run.....the tech providers, the prop firms, the trader....so perhaps, I know this is a strectch, the providers in the futures space will learn for everything that was done wrong in the forex space? Like I said, it's a stretch, 2 reasons.......stupidity and greed.

Forex prop firms failed for the exact opposite reason......NO BARRIER of entry.

So, you are in between $4500-5000....94 *33, plus 18* PA fee.....first payout if you stop at 18 accounts (which I know you will not) will be $36K......anyone wish to dispute a 700% ROI in what 11-12 days?

yep that 25k myflashfunding payout coming in handy. Still have spare 12k for evals . For propfirmmatch there is a thing i purchased 200k fundingtraders (35% off) got only 250 points but each apex eval which cost 30$ gives 130 points. 130 x 94 evals my math not so good

He's talking about +/- 2 minutes,. Where did you see the 1 hour ?
Edit: Oh, I see what you mean bu 1 hour before. Sorry about that.

its +- 2 min. And if you are in a trade during news that has a remote chance of closing during the spike, you're a moron.

How can a trade which could have been opened several hours before the news event have anything to do with news trading? It's quite common to get your TP or trailing stop to hit when markets move. The rule is stupid if your intention is to prevent news trading as it can be easily prevented by other type of rules. This is once again one of those rules made to trap traders.

I wonder if it is not possible for props to execute the trades just after 2 minutes, at whatever price is after those 2 minutes, intead of violating account (or reducing profits).
This way they would avoid SLs and TPs being hit during that time span and accounts from being failed.

And people would know that if they don't want to be "naked" during those 2 minutes they should have a proper size during news or risking to lose the account after 2 minutes.

Yes, it's called slippage MFF was good at that. Once the news traders get some very bad fills during the news, they will stop. Besides there are ways to trade news profitably outside their 4 minute window. The rule is actually quite retarded.
