My biggest ever trading day got even better! Got the $300k login details and made another $20k on that account! $50k for the day on the funded accounts🥂

Traders need hobbies.

You can learn a lot from your missed trades, the ones that might've missed your entry by a couple of pips.

There are 3 ways to pass prop firm challenges faster: - Scale in to your trades - Risk more per setup - Add another strategy

The camera roll of every trader…

Trading becomes easy when you accept that you are not going to win every day/week/month.

You have to trade prop firms differently to personal accounts. Personal account trading should be focused on capital preservation. Prop firm trading should be focused on getting funded as soon as possible and your $ per challenge rate.

If you could change one rule for every prop firm today, what would it be?

Prop firm traders now complain too much about rules, it used to take a minimum of 50 days to request an FTMO payout. Now you can pass both stages and get a payout in a couple of weeks max.

It’s funny that all English traders focus on data, whereas American traders focus on the flashy lifestyle.

If you complain about a prop firm's rules when you are trading the account, you are stupid. Why buy it in the first place if the rules don't suit your trading style? Just pick a firm that suits you and trade it.

You have to spend some of your profits to realise the numbers on a screen have real value. Otherwise, you will forget how much profit you are actually making.

Would you be happy with these results so far this year?

The only trade so far this week, closed before CPI. Slow one so far!

If you struggle with losing days, zoom out on your equity graph at the end of the day.

The more you see your setup in testing, the easier it is to see it in the live markets.

Set small goals in your trading that you can realistically hit on a regular basis.

I am going to be making a series on getting my first futures payout, any futures traders have any firms they'd recommend me to use?

If you are able to get consistent payouts but you aren't making enough to go full time, you don't need to make more profit. You just need more capital. $100k per year on $400k is 2.1% per month but only 1.05% on $800k. More capital also makes it harder to blow.

Trader 1: $500 spent on challenges, $30k in payouts Trader 2: $30k spent on challenges, $90k in payouts. Too many traders would choose trader 1 as they see blowing challenges as a terrible thing, it is not. Prop firm trading is not real trading, it is just a numbers game. You are a good prop firm traders if you have more in payouts than you've spent on challenges, simple.

You will never be satisfied in trading, you will always want to get to the next level. You have had your first $100 day, you now want a $1,000 day. This never ends.
