Your trading should be boring! You shouldn’t be trading and executing positions all day! Wait for price to come to your limits/alerts and then trade. Patience is the biggest skill you need to become a profitable trader

I have an 82% win rate with my strategy, here's how I developed it: - Tested each timeframe - Tested each session - Collected data on TF/Session - Developed a set criteria to enter a trade - Limited my trading to full criteria trades only - Focused on one pair/one session/one TF

10% profit on a maxed funded account is the same as an average annual salary. If you have failed a challenge and now doubt yourself, just think of the ROI of prop firms. $1k investment to potentially make multiple 5/6 figures Don't rush the process!

Trading becomes a lot easier when your strategy is simple! The simpler your strategy is, the lower the chance of a mistake from human error. Having set criteria needed to enter a trade reduces the chance of this happening.

Buy prop firm challenge, pass both phases, make 1% profit, get refund and small payout, trade the account as normal, buy another challenge and repeat the process. That is the simple way to grow capital in 2024 onwards. Use these profits to reinvest inside and outside of trading

When trading a funded account, make a tiny amount of profit for the first profit split. Receive your refund and your profit and then you can trade like normal with 0 risk on the table! This will help you trade knowing that worse case scenario you have ended up with profit!

If you fully focus with your trading, you can make £100k per year easily. 2.1% per month on a 400k funded account is over 100k per year. Only 2% per month👀 I’m pretty sure that after a year of mastering a strategy, anyone reading this can achieve those results.

You can make a decent living just by making 2-3% profits per month Most traders don't think this is true because they are trading small accounts Use your profits to gain access to more capital and then focus on getting small, consistent payouts The best way to use prop firms!

Trading can be a very lonely business. No one outside of trading will understand what you’re doing, especially if you’re losing money. This is probably one of the reasons many traders quit, lack of support for their journey.

The best way to reach six figures per year is to reinvest your prop firm profits! Use them to compound your personal account, invest into index funds/stocks/property or even other businesses. Don't solely rely on prop firms to pay the bills.

If you are trading a $100k funded account, you are not a 6 figure trader! You are trading a demo account that becomes invalid if you lose 10%. You are really a 5 figure trader, trading a $10k account which is still fake money. Only use funded accounts to fund personal accounts

The prop firms themselves share statistics that traders with fewer trades are the most consistent. Yet you’re still over trading every single day trying to get ‘rich’ in one profit split period! Take it slow! Slow and consistent gains always win in the long run!
