Detailed position sizing on a challenge that mattered
Passing was the easy part, keeping a URFX funded account alive was not, which is why FTMO Passer took over the management. My sizing was fine for a challenge and far too aggressive for an account I actually wanted to keep.
A pause rule after three consecutive losses was written into the plan and actually enforced. The consistency requirement at URFX caught me out twice on my own, and it has not been close since FTMO Passer took over. They preferred a flat month to a breached account, and I have learned to feel the same way.
My first payout arrived in week 22, which was the moment the whole thing became real for me. The onboarding call ran long because I had questions, and nobody tried to rush me off it. My only complaint is that I did not find FTMO Passer before losing the first two accounts.
Grounded drawdown management and a funded stage that ended clean
FTMO Passer took over my $200,000 DNA Funded evaluation and the results spoke for themselves. The account was small enough that I felt careless with it, which is exactly the wrong mindset.
Instead of chasing the target, they let the target arrive across many sessions of very ordinary trades. Because FTMO Passer sized down, the evaluation at DNA Funded looked uneventful on the equity chart, which is the entire point. They stopped trading for two days when volatility spiked, which annoyed me then and looks smart now.
The pass came in a quiet week, which is probably the highest compliment I can pay the process. Messages were concise and specific, which I appreciate more than daily motivational noise. I would recommend FTMO Passer to anyone who is tired of trading against their own rulebook.
No-drama rule compliance on a challenge that pushed me
FTMO Passer made the qualification stage at URFX feel like a process instead of a lottery. I had a decent strategy and terrible habits, and no amount of backtesting was going to fix the habits.
Partial profits were taken at a fixed level and the remainder trailed, so no winner was allowed to become a loser. The consistency requirement was the piece I always underestimated at URFX, so it became the first item on the daily checklist. No trade was allowed to run into a scheduled release, and that single rule avoided two nasty gaps.
Final numbers: 4.6% profit, 1.9% maximum drawdown, and a passed qualification stage on a $200,000 account. The team pushed back on my bad ideas politely and repeatedly, which is what I was paying for. The value for me was not the pass itself but seeing what a disciplined process actually looks like.
Precise execution when the stakes were highest
The funded management service at FTMO Passer suited me because I work full time and cannot watch EURUSD all day. Live capital felt completely different, and my first month on Blue Guardian was a masterclass in second-guessing.
The book was reduced to two setups on EURUSD, traded only during the Asian session, with everything else filtered out. The consistency requirement on a funded Blue Guardian account is unforgiving, and FTMO Passer built the entire schedule around staying clear of it. Every idea was sized at half a lot, so no single position could define the month.
Best month was strong, worst month was small and negative, and that ratio is why I stayed with FTMO Passer. Questions were answered the same day, usually with a screenshot rather than a paragraph of jargon. I have already moved a second Blue Guardian account across to FTMO Passer, which is my honest review in one sentence.
Professional account handling from week one to the report
FTMO Passer runs two funded accounts for me now, after the first one behaved exactly as they described. I passed the evaluation myself and then lost the funded account in nine days, an expensive lesson in psychology.
They separated the payout account from the growth plan, which stopped me spending money that was still at risk. They planned around the Traderscale minimum days rather than rushing to a payout and breaching in the process. They preferred a flat month to a breached account, and I have learned to feel the same way.
Drawdown peaked at 1.5% and recovered within a fortnight, which is more than my own trading ever managed. The dashboard access stayed with me throughout, so nothing about the process was hidden. FTMO Passer is not going to make you rich in a month, and that is precisely why my account still exists.
Patient capital preservation, and a first phase that finally ended well
The evaluation passing service from FTMO Passer was the turning point on my $100,000 Blue Guardian account. My problem was never entries, it was sizing the NAS100 far too aggressively once I got within reach of the target.
They flatly refused to trade the London open on volatile days, even when I argued there was an obvious move coming. Because FTMO Passer sized down, the verification stage at Blue Guardian looked uneventful on the equity chart, which is the entire point. They kept a written worst-case number on the desk and traded as though it could happen that afternoon.
Two small losing days, one flat week, and still a 2.9% finish that satisfied the minimum trading day rule. The dashboard access stayed with me throughout, so nothing about the process was hidden. Recommended, with the honest caveat that you still have to resist the urge to interfere.
Grounded progress tracking and a recap worth the effort
The evaluation passing service at FTMO Passer was the first thing that treated the Traderscale rules seriously. I had a decent strategy and terrible habits, and no amount of backtesting was going to fix the habits.
my account manager mapped a day-by-day path to the target and refused to increase size just because we were ahead of schedule. They knew which sessions suited the NAS100 under the Traderscale conditions and simply avoided the rest. They tracked floating drawdown, not just closed losses, which is the detail most traders ignore.
From start to confirmation it was 13 trading days, and I never once felt the account was in danger. The onboarding call ran long because I had questions, and nobody tried to rush me off it. It is a service, not a shortcut, and once I accepted that the whole thing went smoothly.
They fixed my position sizing before touching the challenge
I did not need someone to make me rich, I needed someone to stop me losing the account, and FTMO Passer did that. Every payout felt like a finish line, and I celebrated by trading badly for the following week.
Each week ended with a written review of every trade, including the ones we skipped. I had read the Alpha Capital Group payout terms three times and still got them wrong, while the analyst assigned to me had them memorised. Floating drawdown was monitored constantly, not just the closed balance, which is the detail that matters.
Steady 4.5% growth, 1.6% maximum drawdown, and a payout history I can actually show people. I was told about a mistake before I noticed it myself, and told how it would be prevented next time. If you can pass but cannot keep an account, FTMO Passer is the service I would suggest looking at.
Level-headed communication on a challenge I had doubts about
FTMO Passer has been running the managed account service on my $100,000 Sabio Trade account for months, and the equity curve finally looks like a curve. I had no routine, no review process, and no idea how close I was to the maximum drawdown on any given day.
They ran a correlation cap across the NAS100 and the DAX so a single macro headline could not damage the account twice. Keeping a $100,000 Sabio Trade account alive is a different skill from passing one, and FTMO Passer is built for the second job. They kept a written worst-case scenario and traded as if it were plausible that week.
Best month was strong, worst month was small and negative, and that ratio is why I stayed with FTMO Passer. Messages were concise and specific, which I appreciate more than daily motivational noise. If your funded accounts keep dying in month one, this is the fix I would try.
From uncertainty to systematic capital preservation
I tried three other services before FTMO Passer, and only they treated the Alpha Capital Group rules seriously. Every earlier attempt died the same way: a revenge trade after a stop out, then the position size cap finished me off.
The strategy was reduced to two setups on the S&P 500 CFD, and everything else was filtered out before it reached the order ticket. Passing a Alpha Capital Group account is a compliance exercise as much as a trading one, and FTMO Passer understood that distinction. Risk was defined before entry every time, which sounds basic until you have watched yourself not do it.
They hit the target, flattened everything, and handed over a report rather than an invoice for extras. The dashboard access stayed with me throughout, so nothing about the process was hidden. Solid work from FTMO Passer, and the reporting alone justified the fee for me.
