Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts. We’re sorry that your experience with Topstep didn’t match your expectations.
There is no ideal way to do layoffs, but with Covid still present, bringing the team together in the office was not possible. This was an incredibly difficult decision and we tried our best to conduct the process in a fair and compassionate manner. We apologize if we fell short in this effort, but we needed to align the size of our business with the reality of the markets.
As for our traders, we are proud to offer them a safe opportunity to professionalize their passion without risking their own savings in high-risk markets.
Topstep works hard to provide tools, practice accounts, and educational resources, many of which are complimentary, to help our traders — we invested heavily into building Coach T, our new Digital Trading Coach. All of this is meant to put aspiring traders in the best possible position to succeed.
We share funded trader stories to motivate less experienced traders and show the rewards possible when one trades with discipline and patience. We believe strongly that our risk rules instill these positive qualities in traders.
Diversity is a value at Topstep and we are proud to have people from all walks of life represented on our teams, leadership, and ownership group at Topstep.
We wish you nothing but the best going forward with your career and thank you again for your feedback.
