GOD IS GREAT. MY MUM IS NOW DEBT FREE. The mission I started 4 years ago is complete. Thank you @E8Markets @DylanElchami with this payout of 2k I will use this now to complete the remaining debts and pay off the bills.
4 years of struggle. I don't want you to focus on the payout amount as I know many will and some may call me lucky but I truly worked hard for this.
I had to overcome a lot of struggles. Many nights I went to bed crying and woke up with tears soaking my pillow.
I failed so many challenges. I lost myself at points. I wanted to get home runs.
Last summer I looked at myself and said I had to change. I need to be the man I always knew I could be. So I got to work. I let go of trying to gamble my way through. I focused on the process that's when I discovered @JustinWerlein his YouTube videos spoke to me. Let go of the outcome just focus on process when I see my set up I execute without and expectations of winning. I just stick to my plan and risk.
This is a tough game. It will knock many of us down. I don't like sharing payouts as I know a lot of people are hurting like I was but I do hope you go through my profile and find inspiration that if you keep going you can get to this point.
I will share oflfcial certifcate later when I have.
For now thank you all that have come on with me on this journey.
I have so many to thank and if I miss you I apologise
Thanks to my mentors @gfxtrading_ @gerti_trader @Rico28Toni @oscayszn you guys helped me level up I love you and thanks for the support
Thanks to my brother @GJSebs he believed in me so much that when I told him that my laptop died and I didn't have anything to backtest on he gifted me his iMac for free. It was always my dream to have one. Thank you Seb love you.
My uncle Kitt @ICT_Concepts he let me speak in his spaces I was so nervous. He said he was going to follow me back and keep him updated which I have done and he has given me a lot to advice and support. Please tune in to his spaces as listening to others can really help love you brother
Finally to all my friends on here that never let me quit you all know who you are love you all
Not sure about the future I have nothing to sell or mentorship so not sure if I will share any future payouts
Just for now I'm grateful to God for eveything. Thank you God for giving me strength and the ability to learn this skill
Sorry for the long post I hope my journey has inspired you and if it has please let me know

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@TradersLaunch Appreciate the opportunity you provide.
Keep up the great work.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@TradersLaunch Traders Launch please never change. You don't sound crazy. It's just maybe many have not tried trading with you but when they do they will understand the truth. You're not crazy. You just the best.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

I'm seeing a lot of traders on my timeline complaining and upset over being moved to live with firms such as @TradingLucid and @Tradeify even when they have been paid out massive amounts before

I feel maybe if just maybe they didn't spend or should I say gamble thousands during evals they would be happier I mean for most of them even being paid out 40k they kinda breakeven or negative as they have spent so much on evals

Props provide you with low cost evals as proving grounds for live. It should be every trader aim to go live. That's my goal. Take my time prove to myself that I can manage risk long term and prove to the firm that I'm ready for the call up to live

We have to undestand that at the end of the day @ajtradinglucid @BrettSimba @GandalfTrader they are running a prop firm business and want to be sustainable for as long as possible

Don't you guys remember how crap and awful this eval space was a few years ago with futures we have now immense opportunities at affordable costs

Yet most are just gambling they way through evals. Spending thousands. No wonder they are upset as they havnt been really able to sim farm to huge return on investment and most of them are not able to trade an account long term hence reason why they hate live. They know they way they trade full porting and huge lot sizes they wont survive a live account

So maybe let's just be more grateful for the opportunities we have. Get to live where you have amazing benefits. Keep costs low on evals by managing risk and improving and then run the numbers in the live account

Being called up to live is an achievement and something to be proud of not a punishment

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@NickDoesFutures I started last month and your words are true it changes you. Not just as a trader but it can improve other areas of life as well.
Hoping to keep momentum going.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

I'm down as well but for me it's mostly not the spending on evals as I've not brought as many this year it's more the lost opportunities. Got funded so many times and failed on the last hurdle. So I felt really bad about the missed payout i could have had but changed my mindset last few weeks and getting back to it. You got this my friend. You can do it. The comeback is going to be greater than this set back.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@Pedroisquiet @FS_Futures Thank you and congrats again

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@harvv I sent you dm as I need to know what it was lol

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@gfxtrading_ Yes...that's true..keep moving forwards

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

It was me
Me who wasn't able to stay disciplined
Me who didn't stick to my trading plan
Me who wanted fast results
Me who felt every loss was a personal failure and then was part of my self worth
Me who was afraid to become the best version of myself

I'm still a work in progress but I've had the biggest breakthrough in my trading these last few weeks becuase I've been working on the inner work
When you stop blaming things and other people and accept that only you can save yourself you then start the process to overcome and reach your goals

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@GT_Trades_ @Pedroisquiet Looks like I'm going to make my way to taking a seat soon....

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@BrettSimba This was one of my all time favourite shows but if I remember it was during writers strike and that messed up the later seasons.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@JoshuaTrades @TradingLucid @Tradeify @TopOneFutures Congratulations mate. Incredible work. I like the top one certificate the best as I have no idea what's going on there an astronaut scoring a goal in the World Cup lol.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

I'm funded and eligible for daily payouts now with the best firm in the world @TradersLaunch
I love these guys so much that this is the only firm I'm trading now. My goal in previous posts I've mentioned that I'm going to focus on becoming max allocated with them but one step at a time.
I've been funded before and failed and never managed a payout. I hope God willing this time I can.
Thank God for everything.
Thanks to all my friends on here that always support me.
@gfxtrading_ even when I was failing last couple of months I wanted to give up. You told me that I'm a good trader and that all I needed to do was slow down and size down to micros which I listen to and it worked. That's a great mentor. Someone with experience and understanding and knows what to say to get you in the zone. Thanks everyone in his discord. Thanks to the helpful support at traders launch
There's going to be times when you feel like quitting and nothing is going right but everything happens for a reason and it was preparing you for a later season to win. Even when it's raining the sun is still shining above the clouds. You just got to weather the storm.
Finally surround yourself with good positive people I listen to TRU every week hosted on here spaces by my amazing friend @ICT_Concepts I make notes and look to learn from others and they have helped me mentally so much
Thanks everyone for supporting me. Just got to be calm and keep going.

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

I've completed the 100k @TradersLaunch eval
Now I'm working on the buffer stage and then the live funded
I have reached funded stage a few times before with Traders Launch but I've never managed to take a payout so this time I'm hoping it's different

I've been focused on my risk management. My patience. Waiting for my set up.

It's a long process to where I want to be but I'm ok with that. Slow and steady as @gfxtrading_ would say and sizing down to micros has helped so much

Thank God for everything
Road to debt free has begun

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

I'm Top 200 at the moment in the @Tradeify World Cup tournament
I guess my football knowledge is better than my trading so I thought why no give this a go lol
All in on England to win tonight
As always @Tradeify @BrettSimba @GandalfTrader you guys always bring us fun tournaments
Hope grand cup makes a return soon as well

Anyone else in this competition what rank are you thanks

[MaverickFX @maverickFX007]

@E8Markets are about to change the game reading through this post I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a new product launch

Can't wait

[E8 Markets @E8Markets]

What if there were zero rules?

No consistency rule. No mandatory buffer. No minimum trading days. No trailing drawdown. No daily drawdown. No daily profit cap. No activation fee. No Path to Live policy.

Just you and the charts.

E8 Zero is coming — and it's coming sooner than you think.

This is the trading freedom you've been asking for. One phase. Static drawdown. Daily payouts. 100% payout share. Forex, Futures, and Crypto.

Everything that holds traders back — gone.

Stay close. This one's different.

TRADING ROADMAP FOR REST OF YEAR

This is my roadmap of what I hope to achieve by the end of this year trading wise

Not going to lie first half wasn't that great I know I should be much further ahead but just like using sports analogy the game is still to play and it can still be won

STEP 1
Stabilise the spending. I noticed I was buying far too many evals from different firms. This meant having to focus on different rules and targets and consistency. I was trying to scale too fast. I was spending money that I really needed which meant every challenges or set of them was increased pressure to pass and make money from. So going forwards I'm only going to buy 2 or 3 max per month. Each account I full focus on maximising it for as long as I can. This discipline on not spending means I can put more towards my bills and debts

STEP 2
One firm. I've made my decision I'm only buying evals from @TradersLaunch they are simply the best and easy to follow rules for me. I will start with one 100k account. Every payout goes towards buying new eval until I can reach max allocation of 5 accounts with them. A strong house is built on strong foundations. I will start my foundation with this firm.

STEP 3
No more scrolling through this app looking at what others traders are doing. What they are trading. How much they are making. Comparison is the thief of joy. It's me vs me. My aim is to get better each day and I will focus on what is important. I'm staying away from prop firm drama. I got my own goals I want to work towards

STEP 4
Being grateful already for all that God is blessing me with. Sometimes to gain more you need to be grateful for what you already have. A lot of times and this goes back to step 3 we see the huge pnl and payouts and that makes our 100 days seems insignificnat. However once we are grateful we can put ourselves in position to get more and when we do we can be more apprechiate of this

STEP 5
It's a marathon not a sprint. It's about focusing. On the process. This will take time and I'm now ok with this. One day at a time.

I hope this has given you some value and I would love to hear what are your goals as well

Good luck everyone

Another idiot pulling $175k from props and complaining about getting moved to live. It's getting nauseating. Trade your own money then, idiots. Quit crying.
