For every 100 Prop traders
83 traders lose.
17 make at least one payout.
0.3 people (Not even a whole person move to a live prop account.)
The odds are against you.
Be consistent.
Survive.
Take payouts.
@jacktradesnq Ur green this week over all.
I think ur just seeing Red.
What has help me is just walking away for a couple of days.
No rebill, no worries.
Good luck you get it done.
@timNQ04 If you plan on doing the whole picking up 20 accounts they move you to non existent live in like 2 payouts.
They pay, but lower ur expectations.
Then lower then some more.
@dontbsalti •You don’t really get much draw down in these accounts. You have to 150% or 200% an account twice to get a payout.
•I know affiliates never lose, but it’s common to be in drawdown.
•Be humble with money. ($300 dollars for clicking a button crazy returns)
Focus on the craft.
As long as I keep myself from tilting or digging my self In a hole.
Have been doing good with locking accounts and just taking one trade a day.
Survive.
Post FOMC things should get easier.
Any money you lose following your rules will eventually come back.
Any money you make breaking your rules is gone forever.
The market always collects what it's owed.
@jamaljofx Tuition paid.
Keep your head up.
What has helped me on days like this is thinking to myself.
I’m glad I only lost the cost of the eval and not my own money.
You’ll be in a spot like this again but with experience wishing you luck

3 of the alpha accounts passed, 2 more half passed.
4 Tradeify accounts all over 3K PT, just need a little to make the 40% consistency
Blew up the funded next accounts. ☢️
My instant funded Is still alive but I blew up the all profit on a crash out wednesday :)
Starting to see a little more consistency with base hits & trading only MES.
Only one crash out day so far this month, but it didn’t eat me alive.

@mTraderNDX@ItsTraderLuke@Topstep Came here to say this exactly.
You are doing good.
If your confidence is shaken I would size down to like <150-100 DLL
& adjust size to fit that.
If you can make it thru a month of drawdown without tilting u r doing great
