Third Apex Payout Lands for @edge_skunk, Totaling $5,423 Since April
X user @edge_skunk posted confirmation of a third Apex Trader Funding payout on June 25, 2026, drawn from a single account purchased in April. Cumulative revenue reached $5,423 USD against $2,435 USD in total prop firm spending.
Posting on X on June 25, 2026, @edge_skunk shared confirmation of a fresh payout approval from Apex Trader Funding, marking the third withdrawal from a single account originally purchased in April. Rather than churning through evaluations, the trader has taken a measured approach: hold the account, build routine, and let the payouts compound over time. The full text of the post frames this as a deliberate choice, noting that full porting five accounts at once is not their preferred style.
The numbers shared in the post tell a clear story of steady growth. Monthly revenue climbed from $1,025 USD in April to $1,500 USD in May, then accelerated to $2,898 USD in June, and June was not yet closed at the time of posting. The trader reported an average of roughly $845 USD per week in June, keeping pace with what they described as a possible additional payout before month-end on a separate Topstep account. Total revenue across the run reached $5,423 USD against total spending of $2,435 USD on prop firm fees since starting in March 2026.
“This account gave me 3700% profit on the initial account cost and I am now sitting at 123% profit from all my spending in Propfirms since when I started in March 2026.”— @edge_skunk on X
By the trader's own math, this specific Apex account returned 3,700% on its initial cost, and the broader portfolio sits at 123% profit relative to all money spent on prop firms since March 2026. Those figures reflect the trader's self-reported accounting from the post and are consistent with a pattern many funded traders describe: keep costs disciplined, let one healthy account carry the weight, and avoid the temptation to over-diversify across evaluations. Apex Trader Funding processes payouts on a schedule that allows active accounts to request withdrawals on a recurring cadence, which supports the multi-month rhythm @edge_skunk has settled into.
The trader closed the post with a forward-looking note about a pending Topstep payout, but the confirmed proof here is the Apex withdrawal itself. For readers evaluating what long-hold account management can look like in practice, this thread is a concrete example of a trader treating funded capital as a durable revenue stream rather than a lottery ticket. The three-payout streak from an April account, combined with the trader's stated focus on habits and life outside the charts, is the story worth watching.
