Prop firms just unlocked a new way to avoid payouts. 😂(This time @bulenoxofficial )
I withdrew $43K in one month.
Then, just 2 HOURS before requesting a $25K payout… I got moved to Live. 💀
What perfect timing!
The new business model?
Let traders work, let them generate profits, and conveniently move them to Live right before payday.
Coincidence? I’ll let you decide.

yo de este tio creo que ya mencioné algo sobre lo de slo mostrar las victorias.. 800 cuentas ha hecho la criatura pero te lo dice ahora que le han cazado. Otro más a la lista, como casi todos. Un trader de SOLO fondeos no es trader. Si gana dinero genial pero NO es trading
😂😂😂
🚨PSA: Don’t fall for this furu bullshit.
Huge profits. Huge payouts. Problem is the spend behind them is often obfuscated. Influencers are changing the account names that show how many accounts they've burned through. Typically they just hide the number. This time they are actively changing the account name.
On Vest, every account is numbered, so your 5th account shows up as “Account 5” with a 5 in the icon next to it. There’s also an edit button that lets a trader change the account name, and once it’s edited, the icon shows an “A” instead of the real number, even if the new name still reads like a regular account number.
Most people scrolling past an influencer’s screenshot would never notice that “A.” And if every account already comes named with its number, why would anyone edit the name just to make it look like another account number? Is that the actual account number? Doubtful.
Below is a screenshot from @lanto_trades with edited account names. Not unexpected.

Received payout within minutes
Support was pretty good and fast
Thank you @TradersLaunch
We were supposed to receive updates but that never happened.
I contacted support and they told me to wait 24 hours for an update. It’s been over 72 hours now and still nothing.
The Discord is full of people asking the same thing and all we keep getting are promises that never get fulfilled.
To make it even worse, if you ask about the pending Premium payouts they just send you the same copy and paste reply that doesn’t answer anything or give you any real update. Then they time you out for 6 hours so you can’t even talk in the server.
Has anyone actually received their pending Premium payout? I honestly haven’t seen or heard of a single person that has

Any scam influencer still backing Alpha needs to be shown this post 💯
Sad day for the prop trading community.
Alpha has just rugged traders who were waiting on well-earned, already approved payouts. For many, this isn’t just a number on a screen—it’s money they were counting on. I personally know several traders who, combined, are now out well into six figures.
A refund and an apology don’t replace approved payouts. They don’t pay mortgages. They don’t pay bills. And they certainly don’t rebuild trust.
Trust is everything in this industry, and once it’s gone, it’s incredibly hard to get back.
RIP Alpha.
As for me, I won’t be buying another account from them—CFD or Futures.
$10k withheld by @Alpha_Futures_
You can change your account policies however you want, but you should always honor pending payouts.
I have a 10k payout “approved for pay” they should honor that at least
Prop Firm Match is delisting @Alpha_Futures_ , effective immediately.
On 12 July 2026, Alpha Futures announced the closure of its Premium Plan. Under the firm's announcement, all active Premium Plan accounts will be refunded and closed, while pending payouts earned under the plan will not be honored beyond those already paid. Alpha also confirmed that its NinjaTrader (Tradovate) agreement terminated on 12 July, with Zero, Advanced, and Direct accounts transitioning to its proprietary AlphaTrader platform.
Traders should not lose payouts they have already earned without breaking any clearly stated rule. A firm's decision to discontinue a product does not justify denying earned payouts, and refunding account fees does not change that. The fact that migration paths were offered for other account types, but not for Premium Plan traders, further reinforces our concerns.
In addition, Prop Firm Match received no advance notice or meaningful communication regarding a decision that materially affected both traders and the firm's listing status.
If you are affected and used the MATCH code, please fill out the form below.

🚨 ALPHA FUTURES just dropped NinjaTrader & Tradovate AND killed their Premium Plan — pending payouts CANCELED.
This is one of the biggest prop firm shakeups of 2026:
⛔ NinjaTrader terminated the contract over Alpha's own platform (AlphaTrader) — conflict of interest
⛔ Premium Plan shut down completely — all active accounts refunded & closed
⛔ Had a pending payout on Premium? You're only getting the account fee back
🔄 All remaining accounts force-migrating to AlphaTrader this week
Topstep survived a platform split like this — but Alpha isn't Topstep's size. Can they bounce back?
We just flagged Alpha Futures on DamnPropFirms.com with a full caution notice. Hold off on new accounts until payouts are verified post-migration. Full breakdown + live updates on the site and in our Discord (link in bio) 👀

Took this trade. Paid myself.
At some point you realize…
prop firms were just a stepping stone.
The real game is
trading your own capital and scaling real money.
That’s where I’m at now. 💰📈

🚨 PROP FIRM SCAM EXPOSED 🚨
@E8Markets just banned me with the most ridiculous excuse imaginable:
“You’re over-risking and allocating a substantial portion of your drawdown to single trade ideas.”
And even if I was doing that, so what? I guess you were perfectly happy while I was blowing accounts and you were collecting your fees. But now that you realizes that Im consistently profitable… you pull this shit.
This claim is completely false and directly contradicted by the facts.
I have been trading the same five accounts consistently since February 26, 2026, and they already paid me OVER $62,000 across 5-6 successful payouts from those exact same accounts. This wasn’t luck — it was pure consistency.
If I was really violating their risk rules, it would have been impossible to trade the same accounts for months, pass their consistency requirements, daily loss limits, and qualify for multiple payouts. The $62k they paid me is undeniable proof that I was fully compliant with every single rule.
This is the classic predatory prop firm tactic:
They collect your evaluation fees, let you win for a while, pay you some money to build trust… and then systematically ban profitable traders the moment the payouts start hurting their bottom line.
E8 Futures doesn’t want consistently profitable traders.
They want your money and then close your accounts with fabricated excuses.
This is exactly what happens when a company has no real program to move profitable traders to live trading.
And I have to wonder… do all those cardboard affiliates who promote E8 Futures everywhere also get banned the second they become profitable? Oh wait — what am I even saying? Most of them aren’t profitable to begin with. And the ones who actually are profitable? It doesn’t suit them to expose this scandal anyway, because they make way more money from affiliate commissions than from trading 😂
TRADERS — this is a clear pattern of deceptive practices targeting successful accounts.
If you’re actually good and consistently profitable… they will ban you too.
Share this far and wide so no more traders fall into this trap.
