You just have to avoid the news mentioned on the OneUp website and the economic calendar from FxStreet shows them all ... (Except for the crop production numbers maybe, never traded those products).

I really don't get the problem? Just take any economic calendar out there, check if they show the economic releases that you have to avoid et voila, problem solved.

@sstheo,

I had a couple of questions about OneUp funded account. I have seriously been considering them over TST after a not so friendly encounter with TST.

First, can you use NinjaTrader in the funded account? I see that Ninja is recommended as a platform, but what DOM is actually used to place the trades? I have a lifetime license for Ninja and I know there is no data fee once funded, but can you place your OneUp trades using Ninja? I know Ninja only has like 2-3 brokers that can be used for actual trading.

Second, on the test account, if you do not reset, do you still have access to the account for demo trading as previously mentioned to avoid reset? TST seemed very agitated when I asked them that question and I did not even mention the reason for not resetting.

Third, once funded, about how long does it take to get everything setup to trade live?

Lastly, you mentioned a few times that after 90 days certain rules change, can you elaborate on those? For instance, you mentioned the 15-day profitability rule for the first 90 days, what other rules or guidelines change?

I think you've been doing awesome and really appreciate your transparency as it helped me make a decision between TST and OneUp. Also I had a way to sign up using your link, and because I cannot message you privately (not enough posts sadly) I could not request it from you. May you PM it to me and I will be happy to sign up using your link?

Blessings Abound,

Wolf

I know that Ninja is the most common platform used on OneUp. I use Multicharts, but I don't think you should have any trouble with Ninja.

If you hit your stop, I don't think you have access to sim trade. The platform is locked. But I will ask. I think this is where the new micro-indicie futures should come into your plan. Open a live account with any broker and trade the new contracts that are 1/10 the size of the regular futures contracts.

I will ask MES about the specifics of the 90 day rule.

Thanks.

Thank you, and yes... that is the same link i recieve from OneUp support.

I reply them abount specify the name in that calendar:

US:FOMC Meeting Begins

US:FOMC Minutes

US:FOMC Meeting Announcement


US:ADP Employment Report

US:Employment Situation


US:GDP




Those of above are the news that we need to be on Flat right 1min before and 1min after the news. For example if one is at 10:00 we need to be flat at 9:59 until 10:01

Congrats! very exciting and interesting process you been on. I have 3 questions if you would be so kind to answer.

1. Did your orders always show up in the LIVE dom?


As I heard oneup leave traders in the sim unless profitable


2. Does the traildown once hit $2500 profit stay at $50k even when you withdraw the $2500?

as in, if you withdraw all your money, and are down 1 tick, you lose the account?


3. Are you not allowed to trade the full number of contracts when you withdraw all your profits?

Like you are now allowed to trade 6 lots, but if you withdraw all your profits, do they reset you back to 1 lot or something?
