Montgomery County, PA — November 16,2025
Dexter Merle Means has officially unveiled the Fashionably Late Indicator & Strategy, a rule-based futures system engineered specifically for prop firm combines and funded accounts such as Topstep and Apex.

Built around a proprietary momentum–value relationship, the method demands discipline, patience, and structure — requiring full confirmation before any capital is committed. 

“Most traders fail evaluations because they chase,” said Means.
“The Fashionably Late system proves confirmation outperforms prediction every time.”
 

The strategy was designed to meet prop firm requirements, including:

• Strict risk control
   
• Limited daily trades
   
• Break-even protection after TP1
   
• Anti-chop logic
   
• Mechanical entries with zero emotional bias
   
• Momentum-based exits via the 20-EMA
   

This makes the system ideal for:

• Topstep Combines
   
• Apex Challenges
   
• Funded Trader Programs
   
• Any evaluation with strict daily loss limits
   

Recent 30-day performance test:

• 79.07% win rate
   
• 14.54 profit factor
   
• Consistent equity curve
   

Performance charts and system screenshots can be seen on the homepage.

The Fashionably Late Indicator & Strategy is part of Means’ ongoing commitment to leave behind a system based on discipline, patience, and confirmed structure for future traders.

“Confirmation. Patience. Discipline. That’s the foundation.
That’s the Fashionably Late way.”
