Abi explains why sometimes taking smaller payouts is better than chasing unrealistic huge profits.

"I used to think $500 isn't enough, $300 isn't enough and I would be shooting for those big moves, thousands and that like in these accounts and I'd be like blowing through so many accounts trying to get there.

"One of my coaches used to say like "If you can take a payout if you are eligible for a payout doesn't matter if it's $100 or $1,000 or 10,000 like just take it."

"Don't try to hit this crazy target just take it because money is money and you wanna see returns on your investment. So if you're paying you know $500 for evals and then you have an option to take $1,000 out, well you need to capitalize on that money, you need to make it legitimate.

Josh Explains How He Manages Risk On Prop Firm Accounts.

"If you're trading a prop account or you're in evaluation, you wanna be risk off as soon as you can."

"So for me, my rule is always if I'm taking an acceptance playoff value area high, when it hits the point of control, I'm moving my stops to break even so that way I can no longer lose on that position, and ideally taking profits on POC as well."

"So those are just my rules. That's how I trade and that's what works for me."

Erkan Shares Insights Into His Trading Strategy.

"Looking for, you know a sweep of session liquidity For example either a session liquidity or a key level like a daily closure, so like right here is the previous day's low so we sweep it and we displace higher."

"So it's you know core concepts of ICT and you know volume profile, VWAP, fair value gaps, discretion, intuition. It's a big mixed bag and also I use EMAs as well."

"I use EMAs. This is my first strategy I've ever learned, was the EMAs and I still have them on my chart. So I just toggle them on and off and it's just a way to kind of look at where the trend is with the EMAs."

Lou shares his vision to expand Propr across every market in the future.

Zach:
"What's your vision for the near future on what you guys are trying to do and what do you want it to look like?"

Lou:
"Yeah we wanna do Prop on anything and that means we'll be on perps - well today we're on perps, but perps will be on anything. Beyond this we'll be on binaries, options, any market that you can trade we'll try to be on this market."

"Essentially we wanna be the prop layer of any instrument that you can trade in. If there is any new product that comes out so I mean, options are very old but like binaries or prediction markets, we wanna be offering this layer and make it as seamless as possible so it's just like if you were to trade with a live account.

Abi explains how tracking trades builds confidence and prevents emotional exits.

"Like if you don't have some sort of statistic behind your strategy then you sit there and you start wondering like "Is this gonna work?" Then you get out of your trade."

"I actually used to chart every single day, at the end of the day I was like required to like you know put my entry, what trades I took, why I took it, why I got out of them."

"And when you start to see over and over why you get out of a trade and it's just like lack of self-confidence in your trade and then you see it play out anyways you start to see okay like "Had I just stuck to my plan it would've executed."

Flo explains how he enters crypto trades.

"Solana, for example, this one is valid, so this is a trade I am in right now. Again, same concept apply. Hour 4, we are in this bearish leg to the downside. I have my range from top to bottom, and we retraced pretty far into the discount zone, the green zone."

"Then market structure, just simple drawings like this. Then I have this high again right here, which low brought us to this high, It was this one. Then we closed 2 candles below this low, and then I took my market entry right here, basically"

"Now this one is basically just running. But yeah, that's how I go at crypto."

Abi and Drew share advice for beginner traders, emphasizing the importance of keeping things simple, mastering one strategy, adapting to changing market conditions, and maintaining discipline.

Drew:
"If you're new start with one or 2 tools you know I'm looking at ten things it seems like and it's a lot but there's a lot of time in this"

Abi:
"Yeah I mean it is like that Like in the beginning the simpler you can keep it the better I still keep mine very simple I execute off of like one strategy and I use 5 or 6 strategies in the background as confluence. So for you this is kind of what you're doing too. You're like looking for all your confluence and all the different indicators and strategies"

"So it's like reading the charts is pretty much what it comes down to."

Drew:
"You just have a different tool for different jobs You know you have to adapt to how the market conditions are. That's I'd say that was probably my hardest thing, you know you might go on a really good winning streak and then if you fail to adapt, that just stops and it's like why is nothing working It's like: "Well we didn't adapt". Not saying strategy that's probably the worst thing ever."

"Find one thing get good at it you know and maybe add one or 2 pieces. I've had a lot of mentors over the years some good, some not so good and you can take one or 2 things from each of them. If they have a really good system that works with your risk tolerance and your mindset then run with it. You know a lot of this is mental and like you know it's discipline and personality."

Drew and Abi give insight on how they avoid tilting while scalping all day and some tips on how to be successful when prop trading.

Abi:
"Pipe Down!"

Drew:
"I would say for me it's having so many accounts. So if I have one account that's not good, I move to the next then the next. And if I've kind of messed up a couple accounts, I just stop Chasing. It has cost me more money than anything trying to make up losses. And so the pain of that in the past, I don't want to do that again. It still happens every now and then where you maybe ruin some things."

"I've got so many groups. I have to set those guardrails up for myself. You have to protect what you've got. So you know, with running multiple accounts, Don't copy them all together, don't have them all together. Give yourself some shots at this."

"I don't like having all my eggs in one basket. If you're not a profitable trader like consistently at least making payouts then don't copy trade."

Abi:
"I spent so much money doing that in the very beginning I was like well If I just make a thousand dollars on 5 accounts, it's five thousand dollars. But no, guys, you're more likely to blow the accounts."
