Trader @bishnoifxtrade Requests $6,000 Payout From Topstep

On June 8, the trader @bishnoifxtrade posted on X that a $6,000 payout had been requested from three $50,000 funded accounts at Topstep, citing $25,000 in cumulative withdrawals from the Chicago-based futures prop firm.

On June 8, the trader @bishnoifxtrade posted on X that a $6,000 payout had been requested from three $50,000 funded accounts at Topstep, and that cumulative withdrawals from the firm had reached $25,000. The post tagged Topstep and its founder Michael Patak, and was accompanied by a screenshot image referenced in the proof package.

The $6,000 figure aligns precisely with Topstep's stated per-request payout cap, which the firm sets at $6,000 for established funded accounts while applying smaller $2,000 to $3,000 caps on its newer no-activation-fee Combines introduced in April 2026. Topstep, founded in Chicago in 2012 and focused on CME Group futures, operates a 90/10 profit split, with accounts opened before January 2026 grandfathered to keep 100% of the first $10,000 in profits.

The proof documents the request itself and the trader's claim of a $25,000 lifetime total from Topstep. It does not establish which instruments were traded, the strategy used, the time taken to build the balances across the three $50,000 accounts, or whether each account contributed equally to the withdrawal. Those details are not in the post.

What the evidence does support is a concrete data point in a category often clouded by unverifiable claims: a public, dated request at the firm's stated maximum, from a trader operating multiple accounts at the same evaluation tier. For readers tracking whether Topstep's published payout mechanics translate into actual disbursements, this post adds one more documented instance to the record.
