I started using FewPips because someone…
I started using FewPips because someone recommended them. I purchased two challenges and successfully passed both. However, they only approved one of them because of a rule they don’t make clear upfront.
One of their hidden rules is that 90% or more of your trades cannot be on the same side. For example, if you take 10 trades, only 8 can be sells, and at least 2 must be buys (or vice versa).
I’ve been trading for 11 years, and I’ve never seen such a ridiculous rule. The worst part is they don’t provide any tool or dashboard to track this percentage. You have to manually count every single trade to make sure you’re under the 90% threshold.
I also requested a payout, and it was denied. Based on my experience, it feels like they’re looking for technicalities to avoid paying traders rather than honoring successful accounts.
Their sales team is also misleading. One of their representatives called me before I signed up, but he never explained this rule or the other fine print. He simply told me what I wanted to hear so I’d purchase the challenges.
Based on my experience, I don’t recommend FewPips. It may look promising at first, but be extremely careful. Read every rule and ask detailed questions before spending your money, because some of the most important restrictions aren’t clearly communicated upfront. I personally won’t be using them again.
The reply to your last message
Hi FewPips Team,
I appreciate the response, but I still disagree with how these rules are presented and enforced.
Just because a rule exists on a legal page or inside the dashboard doesn’t mean it’s communicated clearly enough for traders to understand its significance. The 90% directional consistency rule is not something most experienced traders would reasonably expect, and in my opinion it should be disclosed prominently during the sales process since it’s a rule that can invalidate an otherwise successful challenge.
I’ve been trading for 11 years and have traded with multiple prop firms, and I’ve never encountered a rule like this. More importantly, there’s no tool that allows traders to monitor their directional percentage in real time. If you’re going to enforce such a specific metric, traders should at least have a way to track it instead of manually counting every trade.
Regarding the payout, I understand your explanation. However, from my perspective, a single trade being classified as latency arbitrage doesn’t reflect my overall trading style or intent. I’ve consistently traded the same strategy, and I wasn’t attempting to exploit pricing inefficiencies.
At the end of the day, I’m simply sharing my experience. I purchased two challenges, one was denied because of a rule I believe isn’t communicated clearly enough, and my payout request on a funded account was denied for another rule. Other traders can read both sides and decide for themselves whether FewPips is the right fit.
I wish your company the best, but based on my personal experience, I won’t be using your services again
