18 days of careful reporting
I lost two funded accounts before handing the third to FTMO Passer, and that one is still breathing. I had no routine, no review process, and no idea how close I was to the daily loss limit on any given day.
Exposure was trimmed before weekends and rebuilt on Monday, a small habit that avoided two gaps. FTMO Passer knew exactly how the Lucid Trading payout cycle worked and planned withdrawals around it rather than around my mood. They cut size after a strong month rather than pressing it, which felt odd until I saw the consistency.
Best month was strong, worst month was small and negative, and that ratio is why I stayed with FTMO Passer. They flagged a rule change before it affected my account rather than after. My only complaint is that I did not find FTMO Passer before losing the first two accounts.
18 days of thoughtful decision making
I had almost given up on Topstep when FTMO Passer stepped in with their passing service. Work meant I could only watch the London open, and I kept forcing setups that simply were not there.
They traded fewer setups than I would have, mostly the YM around the London open, and skipped anything near red-folder news. The Topstep dashboard was checked before every session so nobody was guessing about the remaining drawdown room. No trade was allowed to run into a scheduled release, and that single rule avoided two nasty gaps.
Final numbers: 5.6% profit, 2.7% maximum drawdown, and a passed first phase on a $150,000 account. They flagged a rule change before it affected my account rather than after. I came for the pass and left with a risk framework I now use on my personal account.
Unhurried execution on a evaluation that pushed me
The challenge passing service from FTMO Passer was the turning point on my $100,000 Lucid Trading account. Every green day tempted me to double size, and every red day convinced me to stop trading entirely.
They logged every entry with a screenshot and a one-line reason, which made the weekly review genuinely useful. What I appreciated is that FTMO Passer built the schedule around the Lucid Trading rulebook rather than trying to trade around it. The team took a full day off after a rough session rather than trying to win it back immediately.
It took 19 sessions, which was longer than the marketing suggested and exactly as long as the risk desk predicted. The onboarding call ran long because I had questions, and nobody tried to rush me off it. Go in expecting a controlled process rather than a miracle and FTMO Passer will probably meet your expectations.
Data-driven position sizing when it mattered most
This is a review of the account management service at FTMO Passer after many weeks on a live FundedNext account. My first funded account died on a news spike I had no business being in front of.
The book was reduced to two setups on oil, traded only during the the rollover hour, with everything else filtered out. The consistency requirement on a funded FundedNext account is unforgiving, and FTMO Passer built the entire schedule around staying clear of it. A hard weekly ceiling meant that even a terrible stretch left the account with room to recover.
Best month was strong, worst month was small and negative, and that ratio is why I stayed with FTMO Passer. I never had to chase an invoice or a report, which sounds minor until you have dealt with the alternative. Recommended for anyone who works full time and cannot babysit a funded account.
How practical risk budgeting saved the account
This is a review of the funded account management service at FTMO Passer after many weeks on a live Take Profit Trader account. After a strong first month I doubled size and spent the next six weeks recovering from it.
They kept a running drawdown tracker open all session so nobody had to guess how much room was left. The funded stage at Take Profit Trader punishes inconsistency, and the monthly rhythm FTMO Passer imposed fixed that. No position was held through a scheduled release, and that avoided the exact event that killed my last account.
The scaling review came through after many months of consistent results, exactly as the plan projected. Updates were honest about losing days, which is the fastest way to earn trust with me. I would rather have this steady outcome than the rollercoaster I was running myself.
Grounded trade filtering and a two-step process that ended cleanly
I hired FTMO Passer to clear a FundedNext evaluation and stayed because the process was calmer than anything I had managed solo. My win rate was fine but my loss size was three times my average winner, so the maths never worked.
The plan had a pause rule after three consecutive losses, and it triggered twice without any drama. FTMO Passer kept a buffer against the FundedNext limits at all times, which is why a losing streak never became a crisis. There was one losing streak of four trades, and instead of doubling up they reduced size and waited.
The result was 7.0% profit with 2.1% peak drawdown, and the funded credentials arrived shortly after. When I panicked during a drawdown, the reply was calm, factual and about ten minutes away. Ask them about drawdown before you ask about timelines, and the conversation will tell you everything.
Measured capital preservation and a report worth the patience
What sold me on FTMO Passer was the refusal to guarantee a date, which sounded strange until I understood the consistency requirement. I was trading the GC and the ES together with no correlation awareness, so one bad move counted double.
The strategy was reduced to two setups on the GC, and everything else was filtered out before it reached the order ticket. The team treated the Take Profit Trader evaluation as a risk budget to be spent carefully rather than a race to be won. There was one losing streak of four trades, and instead of doubling up they reduced size and waited.
The $50,000 account finished 6.4% higher, with the deepest dip held to 3.2% throughout. There was a shared sheet I could check any time, so I never had to ask how the account was doing. Four stars in my head for the impatience it cured, five for the actual outcome.
12 trading days of professional progress tracking
FTMO Passer runs two funded accounts for me now, after the first one behaved exactly as they described. I had no routine, no review process, and no idea how close I was to the daily loss limit on any given day.
They documented the daily loss limit in a one-page sheet that sat next to the order ticket. I had read the Funding Pips payout terms three times and still got them wrong, while my account manager had them memorised. Risk per trade stayed tiny, and the worst week was still comfortably inside the firm limits.
Total return of 7.5% with clean withdrawals, and no compliance emails at any point. The dashboard access stayed with me throughout, so nothing about the process was hidden. I would rather have this steady outcome than the rollercoaster I was running myself.
How transparent reporting made it work
FTMO Passer took over the funded management service for my Tradeify account after my first payout, and consistency improved from there. Live capital felt completely different, and my first month on Tradeify was a masterclass in second-guessing.
Every trade had a stop, a target and a written invalidation before it was placed, without exception. FTMO Passer treated my Tradeify account as a long-term asset rather than a lottery ticket, which is rare. They flattened everything before a long weekend and rebuilt exposure slowly on the Monday.
The account survived two volatile stretches that would have finished me on my own, and still ended 2.7% higher. Everything was documented, so when I queried a trade the answer came with evidence attached. I will keep renewing with FTMO Passer as long as the drawdown discipline stays where it is.
Practical risk budgeting and a challenge that ended cleanly
The challenge passing service from FTMO Passer was the turning point on my Funding Pips journey. Work meant I could only watch the London open, and I kept forcing setups that simply were not there.
They flatly refused to trade the London open on volatile days, even when I argued there was an obvious move coming. Funding Pips does not care how good your analysis is, only whether you stay inside the maximum drawdown, and the plan reflected that. They stopped trading for two days when volatility spiked, which annoyed me then and looks smart now.
Two small losing days, one flat week, and still a 7.0% finish that satisfied the maximum drawdown. Support replied within a couple of hours even during a busy week, which surprised me. If you keep resetting Funding Pips evaluations, FTMO Passer is the option I would point you to, provided you leave the plan alone.
