🚨 Risk Adjustments: High Risk, High Volatility. Following up on our prior move of placing trading restrictions on specific metal and energy products: Gold (GC), Silver (SI), Copper (HG), Platinum (PL), Natural Gas (NG), and E-Mini Natural Gas (QG), we are further reducing contract size in the following micro markets, Micro Gold (MGC), Micro Silver (SIL), Micro Copper (MHG), and Micro Natural Gas (MNG). This is a lever that many brokerages and traditional proprietary trading shops may pursue. We have seen the data, the vast majority of traders are being harmed, even with the extremely scaled down limits that we provided. Topstep’s goal is to provide a trading environment that helps our traders level up their trading and prepares them for trading in Live markets. We will continue to monitor the market conditions and will move swiftly to reinstate trading when volatility normalizes. As always, trade well, trade responsibly, and reach out if you have any clarifying questions.

It's not quite a pipeline or affordable homes. But congratulations on building something, anything.

@MichaelPatak your shit sucks compared to other firms

‘25 Growing pains yes. ‘26 TopstepX is performing THE best we have ever seen it with the scalability work. We continue to make things right for those affected a trader at a time each day and payouts remain snappier than them all per 15 years usual of doing them …

The fact that @Topstep and @MichaelPatak keep ignoring all the issues and complaints and just dodging them, it is my very strong and honest recommendation not to trade with them as there are much better prop firms out there. Save yourself your peace of mind.

@MichaelPatak your shitty platform still charging me when all accounts are closed, PLUS I already got refund for 3 accounts that were closed and charged and in the SAME day same shit happens. Maybe fix this shit too

Seeing lot of traders chase the volatility Aka silver. Saw this in the pits traders leaving to go to another pit that was more volatile. They wouldn’t last that long. New markets take time to learn. Best traders I saw stood in the same spot in the same pit every day Narrow & deep

@MichaelPatak yeah nobody care about this shit until you care about your customers who got fucked

Platform stability and a swift great support experience are two areas where we are hyper focused to improve. Everything else is running well. Have a great Christmas all!!

13 years of trust destroyed in 2 months, and Topstep's Trustpilot rating is currently in free fall. Here's a video covering what has everyone so justifiably angry. We've seen firms fall, but we've never seen reputational damage like this at an established firm like Topstep. Eventually they'll be fine, but avoid them for now. youtu.be/p3Dbs-B2AB4?si…

@MichaelPatak @TopstepTV Feels like you have no fucks given for us customers. Whole week was fvked because of youre platform. Went from 4.3 star to 3.8 realquick on tp and still not addressed customers. Other firm are taking advantage of this and run sales while you're doing absolutely nothing to keep us

Not hiding. Will be on. Last week all my focus had to be on helping team make adjustments to address the platform reliability issue that is the main issue of all this. We made huge progress. Of course not done yet but I’ll be only @TopstepTV now more to keep you guys informed.

@MichaelPatak fix the goddamn time window this shit is ridiculous youve had multiple proof of your platform being out for more than that PLUS topstep status update shared at 9:21 that we were still having issues and should not be trading. confirmation to trade was sent out at 9:39

We continue to work behind the scenes. I’ll share more tomorrow. Again, I do hear all the frustration. As a trader, confidence in yourself and your strategy starts with your platform. I get it. I’ve been there. Stay patient with me and the team. We will make it right.

This is just absolutely beautiful for TopSteps rep have a read.. This morning’s outage is being handled in a way that makes absolutely no sense. Topstep’s own status page states the outage lasted at least 43 minutes, yet losses are only being voided from 8:45–9:15 AM CT, a 30 minute window that doesn’t even match their minimum reported downtime. Traders who were live at the time with extensive video evidence from thousands of users were affected as early as 8:30 and as late as 11:00, but this is being completely ignored. On top of that, Trenton has stated that only trades flattened between 8:45–9:15 will be voided and that entry time is irrelevant, which is illogical how are traders supposed to flatten positions if the platform is down? This policy also unfairly rewards luck: accounts with larger size or less drawdown were liquidated faster and got compensated, while others affected during the outage but liquidated after 9:15 received nothing. The proposed “solution” is to contact customer support, which has been consistently unresponsive, delayed for days, or outright ghosting traders, and often seems disconnected from how the platform even functions. To make matters worse, Michael Patak appears to be posting ChatGPT generated responses on Twitter, and Trenton is doing the same in official status updates, which only reinforces how impersonal and dismissive this entire situation feels. Michael Patak has not addressed this in over 10 hours, we’re now on day two of outages, and there has been zero transparency about the root cause or what’s being done to prevent this going forward. The team’s vagueness and lack of accountability is unacceptable traders deserve real answers.

@MichaelPatak @Topstep 43 min outage, on your own website

Real talk @Topstep community-I hear you, and I hear the frustration. We’ve grown wild fast this year because we have the best program. But with that growth, we haven’t delivered the best trading experience or the best support — and that’s on us. We see it. We’re fixing it. Adjustments to improve your trading and support experience are our top priority... More details soon...

@MichaelPatak @Topstep your time window from today outage is ridiculous, your guy trenton even posted in discord status update at 9:21 that we were having login issues, at 9:39 said that we're ok to trade but your only removing negative trade from 8:45 to 9:15 how would that be fair?

@Fortnite bring back chapter 5, this season is trash once again

What fucking country calls an emergency election because the government is so bad, only to vote the same fucking government in. Canada is cooked. Fuck you Ontario and Quebec

If you're a woman, a Canadian from a multicultural community, a young Canadian &/or a hardworking taxpayer just remember what the liberal establishment did to me .. @DhallaRuby & all my supporters across Canada. We set out to make history with progressive policy ideas that were the need of the hour for our country instead the @liberal_party wanted the same old - Trudeau 2.0. A rigged leadership race with 350,000 stolen & the same team as Trudeau for the past 10 years - can YOU really trust @liberal_party with 4 more years? Read that again. Then make sure you make the right choice for change tomorrow.

Please ! Listen ; Pierre put his reputation on the line, denouncing extreme liberal woke agenda. He warned of the great reset, and he banned his cabinet from the WEF. He said there are 4 million temporary foreigners that must leave by the end of the year and promised to cap immigration. He is lowering income tax by 15% and stopping the capital gains tax He will build the pipelines. He will build the homes He will make Canada First !!!! Please ! Help me save our children's future and vote CPC 🌊🌊🌊🌊💙💙💙🇨🇦
