A systematic NQ and MNQ strategy that trades mean reversion of the opening auction. We ran a full year of its trades through the rules of 54 prop firm accounts, counting every fee, payout cap and blown account. Here is where it pays the most.
001 — Prop firms
A year of System 01 trades run through 54 accounts at 8 firms, with every fee taken out. The top three are instant-funding accounts, so there is no evaluation to pass. Figures use a moderate size, where two losses in a row can’t end the account.

For comparison, the Topstep 50K Combine at the same moderate size has a typical year of $2,250, and $4,587 when the win rate is cut by 4 points.

Not yet. It runs on TradingView and sends alerts; you place the orders on your prop firm or broker platform. Automated execution on your own account arrives with System Apophis and is part of the membership.
Any firm that lets you trade from TradingView alerts. The prop firm leaderboard compares 54 accounts at 8 firms. Read your firm’s rules on automation, news and consistency before you start.
At bigger sizes, one or two losses can reach an account’s max loss. The moderate size used above risks half the max loss per trade, so two losses in a row can’t end the account. Bigger sizes pay out sooner but breach more accounts.
