Topstep Teases Custom Plans & Multiple Live Accounts in AMA

Topstep’s Chief Strategy Officer, Ty, answered trader questions in a Reddit AMA. Here’s what we learned:

Custom Plans & Pricing: Ty floated the idea of customisable plans coming to Topstep, with the price adjusting based on what you choose.

Live Call-Up Criteria: We got some concrete insight into how Topstep moves traders to Live. They look at:

• Total number of payouts
• Total XFA balance
• Consistency
• Use of DLL
• Number of combines/XFAs blown in a single day
• If you have been Live previously

Move to Live Before a Payout: Ty said they’re looking at the Live transition and how they can do it better. Your XFA balance also carries over: part of it sets your Live starting balance, and the rest unlocks in 4 increments of 25%.

Live Account Improvements: Topstep plans to improve the Live experience in Q4 and into next year. Multiple Live accounts are being looked into, and they want to make the transition criteria clearer for traders.

Responsible Trading Program (RTP): Topstep is looking to clarify how traders get into the RTP and how they exit it.
