    Ciao Luidin, and first of all let me congratulate with you and all Ireland for the fantastic McGregor win last night. I guess there was a lot of celebration after the macth for this incredible Irish champion. I have to digest a bit what you wrote and run some calculations. Let s say that as a...

    Hey Luidin, I respect your opinion for sure, as it is expressed with coherence but I disagree. First of all, just to clarify on this point: traders do not need to trade accoding to our strategy qnd signals, they can trade the way they like as long as they respect risk parameters. Secondly...

    Sorry , I forgot to comment on the profit split. Considering that: -the average trader is not a pro and has no financial background -he/she works part time from home with no obligations to perform -he/she risks nothing and still gets rewarded I see the 50% profit split as quite fair, also...

    Hey Luidin, thanks for the question. It gives me a chance to explain how it works and how we got there. The trailing stop is actually pretty new, we started applying it since last September, before we simply allocated 1250 Risk per trader: that s it. We then decided to make it 1500 USD so the...

    Hey Alexa you are right unfortunately, that part is still a bit unclear on the website. We have recently restructured and created a video explainer on the home page but we still get a lot of questions on phase 2. Here is how it works. If you pass the Savius Trading Challenge we reimburse you...

    Hey Luidin, again, if you read the whole post , there is no place when I am saying our test is easy at all. It is damn difficult and the rate of success is 26%. But we are here to finance the best of the bests, not to give money away for charity. As far as I am concerned, I dont have to prove...

    Well ,Moka , thanks for the comments , I understand your point and I would eventually consider a model switch in the future but : 1) you are right, regulations are totally different.Much more complex as basically the company becomes similar to any financial institution that collects third party...

    Hey Moka, what you say is absolutely correct and I totally understand. We studied all different type of models before picking up this one . The one you mentioned in particular is much more capital intense and doesnt look exceptionally fair either to me. Let s look at it together: You put...
