Caught #nasdaq at higher-timeframe short setup at the key resistance area. π
Entry was clean, targeting 1:4 R:R with a potential 4% gain.
Price retraced after giving 2β5% profit, so instead of letting a winning trade turn into an SL, secured +1% and closed in green and started phase 2 of my funding pips 2 step pro challenge β
Protect the account. Protect the profits.
1% green > taking an unnecessary loss. ππ

Except @fundingpips all listed prop firm can deny payouts at any time from the list which i can see here.
β οΈ Based on my own experience, below are the firms Iβd personally feel more comfortable considering for CFD at the moment:

Late Saturday night while many enjoying their weekend, let's do backtesting and learning every possible setup.
Because this is what separates a trader from someone who just clicks Buy/Sell.
The work nobody sees is what builds the edge ππ§
Backtest. Learn. Repeat. π₯
First-ever futures trade on my Tradify Phase 1 account, and it closed at +2.4% profit! π
The account has a 40% consistency rule, so the focus is on disciplined execution rather than chasing big wins.
This trade was a clean 1:2.4 Risk-to-Reward setup, grabbing the lower liquidity perfectly.
One trade down. Many more to go, in shaa Allah. Let's see how the journey unfolds. ππ
Started a new chapter today. π
Just purchased my first-ever Futures Prop Account with @Tradeify β $100K Select Plan.
Let's see where this journey takes me. I'll be sharing the wins, the losses, and everything I learn along the way.
Time to execute the plan. ππ₯

PASSED $100,000 2-Step Pro Phase 1 in under 24 hours. β
Waited for the lower high, entered the short, liquidity was swept, and closed the trade at 1:3 RR.
One clean execution was enough.
Patience > Overtrading.
Phase 1 β Completed in under 24 hours.
Entered a short position after spotting a lower high, swept the liquidity, and rode the move for a clean 1:3 Risk-to-Reward.
$100,000 2-Step Pro Evaluation β Phase 1 passed within 24 hours of purchasing the account.
The focus remains the same: patience, execution, and risk management. π

Finally, a strong comeback. π
Started fresh with a new $100K 2-Step Pro funded account today and reached +4% profit on Day 1.
Patience paid off. Waited for price to reject a major resistance level and executed with a 1:4 risk-to-reward setup.
A reminder that one bad account doesn't define your journey. Discipline and sticking to the plan always create new opportunities.

@divineayadejnr@onlyemex@fundingpips Majority of prop firm calculate based on balance/equity whichever is higher at day reset time,from the highest value daily drawdown will count for next day
@divineayadejnr@onlyemex@fundingpips I thought same earlier with many prop firm like fundednext they says it's balance based daily drawdown but when I explain them with example it was same balance/equity based whichever is higher at dashboard reset time
Unfortunately, Couldn't recover this account and ended up hitting the maximum drawdown.
The biggest reason? Nasdaq kept hitting my stop loss again and again.
But the market wasn't my biggest mistakeβI was.
I didn't follow my trading plan. I let emotions take over, opened revenge trades while already in a loss, and failed to cut risk when price gave me the chance to get out at breakeven.
You can watch hundreds of trading psychology videos, but when real money is on the line, controlling your emotions is one of the hardest things you'll ever do.
This account is gone, but the lesson isn't.
From the next account onward, the focus is simple: follow the plan, manage risk, and leave emotions out of the trade. ππ―
From a successful payout... to a complete bloodbath. π
Nasdaq kept breaking my stop-loss after stop-loss, bringing this account dangerously close to max drawdown.
Winning streaks don't last forever. The real test is how you respond. π
Now it's time to reset, review, and rebuild. πͺ
Received my 4 digits payout from @fundingpips
Never give up.
There were days I questioned everything, but I kept showing up.
Today, my all-time payouts have crossed $21,285 π
I honestly thought I'd have to wait until after the weekend for my payout, but Fundingpips delivered it the very same day.
Thank you @Khldfx and overall team @avikkfp for the fast processing and continued support. On to the next milestone. ππ₯
After my first payout, I blew multiple funded accounts.
The biggest mistake wasn't my strategyβit was overconfidence. I started believing I had it all figured out, and my emotions slowly took control of my decisions.
Now it's time to reset.
From today, my focus is on discipline, patience, and emotional control. One payout doesn't make a successful trader. Consistency does.
The journey continues. ππͺ
