    In this final episode of trying to become a funded trader, I face a lot of ups and downs throughout live-streaming, the summer doldrums, and the swings of autumn.
    I appreciate you all for following along with my trading journey. Many of you have offered me lots of sage advice, strategies, etc. because you are rooting for me to succeed. I truly appreciate it.

      I'd like to see you try trading something other than ES and NQ. Doesn't have to be a perma switch, more like a one off video where you attempt it for a week or something. You could try Oil, Gas, Gold or something completely different. Just throw yourself into something unfamiliar and see how you do with the experience you have. Again, not a perma switch. Just something to spice things up once in a while.

    I’m 2 years into my trading journey, now working with ES contracts and mainly buying pullbacks in trend. A lot of what you’re dealing with resonates with what I’ve been dealing with as well. I really appreciate the added difficulty of streaming it and making videos. Thank you very much for all your hard work and persistence to continue on. It helps me to see someone who is also fighting the same battles as I am and gives me added motivation. We’re doing the work, we know the job, and now we just have to get out of our own way. Best of luck to you and I hope your big break comes soon, you deserve it!

    @tradewithhamza Рік тому +4

    what i discovered my friend it is this one things for everyone to learn,:
    because you are a new trader like me (new trader is anyone up to 4 years) that the best way to approach profitability faster and have something going on, it is to have a more mechanical approach where your opinion does not matter. if you had 20 years experience than i would say yeah go man 30% mechanical and 70% decision from you, but in this case i would keep 80% mechanical and maybe 20 decisional. So for the runner keep it mechanical, easy to follow and if it break something you are out. More mechanical, less emotionals, and trust me even if you had it 100% mechanical, you are gonna fucked it up, good luck everyone and survive!

    Guess what? I passed on my second account (TradeDay) with flying colors. Now I'm trying to replicate that with my funded account but already in drawdown because I started treating it like a "main account"

    You have no rules, no consistent plan to follow, no plan for exiting trades, no plan on how to manage your risk consistently, no plan on how to manage your size consistently, no plan for what your risk to reward is per trade, your exits on every trade are random, psychologically is a huge part of trading because it tries to make you do everything but follow your rules, you need to be disciplined and extremly consistent in trading, before you enter a trade you already should know your max loss, and what your expecting to win, you leave the door open to so much randomness and gambaling, you need to control absolutely everything you possibly have control over, main thing being risk, and of course stop breaking rules and over trading and making every trading day and trade different with your exit strategy sizing etc

    • @Eclipse-ed9vj
      @Eclipse-ed9vj 10 місяців тому

      And one of the biggest things behind successful trading is psychology and managing emotions, it’s a HUGE part of trading and it’s barely felt when trading demo eval accounts, when it’s a “live” account different game with the emotions, not even in the same ballpark as trading REAL money, and these prop firms make money from failed evals, your never really on a live account, the few that get payouts are paid from that pool of failed eval accounts just lots of things stacked against you for no reason, start with a small live account, focus on a system and following strict disciplined rules, create a rule for every variable you CAN have control over, and be consistent. Compound the account

    it's funny how that works with changing to a larger account, I did the same thing and out of the blue I stopped pushing so hard and left a lot of the garbage trades behind. I think it's something that we all value our time according to what we're used to make working a 9to5 and if we don't see that same output per day they we start questioning our self and the whole trading part as well. At least that's my 2 cents.

    Congrats dude🎉 I’ve been watching your videos since you started trading, I to am a trader and I see how you struggled at first as I did, I also believe it is psychological on bigger account size, I recently started a 100k challenge and I feel I’m doing much better then the 50k challenge

    Awesome vid! Inspiring to try and pass my combine, which I've had no luck with.
    It might just be me, but those Free Resets (that expire) actually mess me up more than help. If they didn't expire, it'd be one thing. But, I think because I know the clock is ticking, I make stupid Hail-Mary moves to quickly pass - and if I break the rule - oh well, I have the free reset. As opposed to me seriously trying and knowing I have a free reset if I just mess up.
    Again, maybe just me ;)
    Congrats on passing!!!
