@NosaAdrian Documents $4,000 Topstep Payout on X in November 2025
On November 19, trader @NosaAdrian posted on X that he had pulled $4,000 from Topstep so far this month, sharing a screenshot alongside a candid note that he had lost both funded accounts after his prior withdrawal.
The proof, published to X on Wednesday, November 19, consists of a single screenshot and a short caption stating, in the trader's words, that this month so far has produced $4,000 from Topstep. The post is public and timestamped, and the attached image shows a payout figure consistent with that claim. No account size, instrument, or strategy is disclosed in the post text.
What gives the post weight is its honesty about the round trip. @NosaAdrian writes that he took a few losses after his last withdrawal and lost both funded accounts, and that he is now considering going max allocated to chase larger payouts on each account. That sequence, withdraw, blow up, rebuild, is a familiar arc among Topstep traders and is rarely volunteered in promotional posts.
“Took a few Ls after my last withdrawal and lost both funded accounts.”— @NosaAdrian on X, November 19
Topstep, founded in Chicago in 2012, is among the longest-running futures prop firms and routes traders into CME Group futures through its Combine evaluation. The firm reports a 90/10 profit split, with accounts opened before January 2026 keeping 100% of their first $10,000 in profits, a structure that frames why a $4,000 month-to-date figure is plausible on the smaller funded sizes the firm offers.
The proof does not establish which account size produced the $4,000, which products were traded, or the win rate behind the figure. It documents a payout amount and a date, not a track record. Readers evaluating Topstep should weigh this single receipt against the firm's intraday-trailing drawdown on the Combine and its 50% consistency rule, both of which shape how funded balances are built and withdrawn.
Taken on its own terms, the post is a credible, dated data point: a public X receipt of a $4,000 November withdrawal from Topstep by a trader who is open about the losses that followed his previous payout. That is the limit of what the evidence shows, and it is enough to log.
