Two manual mains, eight copies
At each firm, one account is traded manually and four copy-trade it — two manual mains and eight copies across the ten funded accounts. The journal blends 28,822 trades (17,367 wins) for a 60.26% blended win rate and $128,822 blended P&L on the master record: 28,002 generated trades at 59.96% / $119,664, plus 820 preserved production records. Every master-record trade is replicated across the 8 copy accounts, for $1,030,576 combined.
Risk record
Maximum drawdown: $11,244 (9.4%). Worst losing streak: 24 trades. Red months: 15 of 61. Red days: 359 of 1,009.
Qualification and replacement continuity
The 24 purchased evaluation attempts use the brief’s bookkeeping: 10 initial attempts plus 14 replacement-purchase attempts, with the startup reset included in the replacement-purchase count; 22 passed. Two recovered accounts restored two breached operating slots without adding a 25th evaluation purchase. The operating book stays at five funded slots per firm from each firm’s launch: Apex from 2021, TPT from 2022.
