Prop Firms & Backtesting 👉
Traders are the new billionaires I know guys who have $100m+ in liquid trading capital they use That can withdraw it and spend it on whatever they want, whenever they want Literally more liquid net worth than most tech billionaires
Billionaire attorney John Morgan, who owns the largest law firm in America, said there are less than 20 ppl in America who actually have a billion liquid. He said most ppl who are labeled as billionaires are not & it’s all bullshit marketing. I don’t think yall understand how much a billion is lol

The prop firms vs live accounts debate is low IQ. If you set up a copy-trader you can just use both. I’ve done $220k in prop firm payouts and $130k in profit on my live account this year. There’s literally 0 reason to just use one or the other. You need to be using both.

Celebrated my first $10k payout by getting a private jet for me and my friends to go on holiday (empty leg, only cost $8k altogether). Huge waste of money and I obviously won’t be doing it again until I’m super rich, but it was one of the best experiences of my life and it motivated me to work hard and make it a normal thing. Always spend your first big payouts imo.

One of my boys introduced me to trading. He was making some payouts but he’s been in a big drawdown for the last few months. Meanwhile I’m doing way better than him ($70k in payouts in the last few months) and all I do is copy the trades of another streamer. Kinda feel bad that I’m seeing this success while he’s struggling, I can sense that he’s becoming jealous of me.

I work as a full time analyst for another trader. He’s a swing trader and I know everything about his model. My job is simply to message him when I see his trade appearing. It’s the perfect job for me since I love analysing the charts but I’m a terrible trader myself (always lost money due to issues with my psychology). I wonder how many other failed traders could also go down this path and be successful with it.

I heard that advice of “if you’re unprofitable, just start taking the other side of your trades”. Genuinely started doing that last month, whenever I wanted to enter a trade I would just do the opposite - I got my first payout of $1.7k doing this lmaooo. I will continue to do it as it is working clearly. I’m so bad at trading that I’ve become good.

Every time you change the trading strategy you follow sets you back another 2+ years from becoming profitable Every strategy you see online, or have traded yourself in the past CAN be profitable It’s all just about getting as much data on it as possible, taking out what isn’t working in it and focusing on what is That’s literally all you have to do Changing strategy again isn’t going to help you become a millionaire faster It will actually set you BACK years from your goals Stop changing your strategy

I know a guy who basically full ports his account on yom kippur, barely touches his trading account for the rest of the year. He’s unironically one of the best traders I know.

I’ve made $5 million from trading. I’ve never cared about what the interest rate is, never watched a FED speech, don’t know anything about fundamentals. Technical analysis is all you need.

I read the new “Market Wizards” book lately - and one of the traders said that some people just don’t have what it takes to make it as a trader, he said “if you’re not tall you won’t make it into the NBA”. Then the author brought up Spud Webb, who was 5’7 and had a good NBA career, showing there’s always exceptions. I’m that exception for trading. Used to sell drugs, went to prison for 7 years. Came out in 2017 and realized that I had to change my life. Everyone told me to stay away from trading (even my mentor) because I was impatient person, but I kept going. Finally became consistently profitable in 2023 after 6 years of trading, now I do it full-time and I’m giving my kids a life I could’ve only dreamed of giving them. I was a bum and turned my life around and became a profitable trader - if I can do it, I promise you that anyone can!

3x $100K challenges in progress with @tradeifyforex . @PropFirmMatch@PropFirmMatch @PropFirmMatch listed Tradeify, and they came with a 50% off discount + 90% profit split at payout, so I took advantage of it. Lately, I’ve been scaling quite aggressively because my goal by the end of 2026 is to reach $1.5–2M in prop firm funding. Adding these challenges at 50% off felt like a great opportunity to keep moving towards that goal. Will keep you updated!

Trading a prop firm account with a payout cap is such a disadvantage These are my personal favourite prop firms with NO payout cap: - FundedNext - FundingPips - E8 Markets - 5ers - FTMO Do you trade prop firms that have payout caps? Or do only trade ones that don't have it?

Let me give you the support you’ve never heard before: Trading is genuinely possible. I’ve been learning how to trade for about 7 years now. But even when I was learning I knew there was a very small chance I would make it, yet I believed in myself anyway. I became profitable after 4 YEARS of spending 3-4 hours a day on my trading (couldn’t put in more since I also worked a job). Since then I’ve just been investing 20% of my salary into my account every month. I’ve managed to build it to $1.2M in the last 3 years and I quit my job 2 months ago to go full-time into trading. Even though I’ve put so much work into this I’m still genuinely shocked that I was able to make this happen. Don’t listen to the doubters, keep working!

I declined an academic scholarship to trade instead. 2 years into my journey and still not profitable, my family are losing faith in me but I know that I’ll get there! God bless to everyone on the trading journey.
