@jackiez000 叫啥来着，用户反馈，

[Adam Khoo @adamkhootrader]

This poor guy on X posted his portfolio crashes $27m down to $600k in a few months!

What causes this is over concentration ( into overvalued/ overextended stocks) and over leverage of positions .

Many investors focus on “What to buy”, “when to buy” but fail to focus on the most important key… which is position sizing and portfolio allocation.

No point generating super high returns in the short term if they cannot be sustainable over the long run

1) I diversify across investment themes ( hyperscalers, AI capex enablers, cybersecurity, SaaS, military defence, fintech etc)

2) I diversify across sectors ( consumer discretionary, industrial , financials etc)

3) I avoid leverage

4) I only stay invested in the top 1% of high quality stocks and add when undervalued

5) I sell when stocks are extremely overvalued or when fundamentals deteriorate permanently. Cut losers ruthlessly

That’s how my UIP portfolio is still up + 23.96% ( US$1.29m net gain) year to date, when many other’s portfolios were wiped out

every profitable trader I know does the same thing before the market opens

the traders who blow accounts skip it every single day

it takes 30 minutes. it's boring. it's repetitive

there's nothing exciting about it

but it makes money

nobody will ever post it on their Instagram story
and it's the single highest-ROI activity in all of trading

higher ROI per minute than any strategy, any course, any indicator, any Discord alert

the 30-minute pre-session protocol:

PHASE 1: daily chart analysis

open the daily chart. one candle. one question: are we sweeping highs or lows today?
expansion signs: strong close through a key level,clean displacement candle
reversal signs: wick rejection the previous day, external liquidity swept and closed back in the range.

can't tell?

that's your first and most important signal of the day
if the higher timeframe is unclear, you sit that day out

you just saved yourself $200-500 in bad trades

this happens roughly 2 days per week

accept it

PHASE 2: external liquidity marking

mark previous day high (PDH) and previous day low (PDL)
mark the weekly high and weekly low
mark swing highs and swing lows on the 4H chart
these are your buyside and sellside liquidity levels
where liquidity rests is where the market will reach

this is your "where will price go FIRST" map

PHASE 3: internal target marking

mark fair value gaps price has not yet filled
these are your "where will price deliver AFTER the sweep" targets
the sequence is always: raid external liquidity THEN deliver into internal arrays
that's the foundation of the model on every timeframe

PHASE 4: the pre-market candle read

check the 6 AM candle (4 or 6-hour timeframe)
did pre-market sweep a liquidity pool you marked?
if yes, the morning move may already be in play
did price start expanding towards your draw on liqudity?
did it expand through and hold? (continuation signature)
this 2-minute read gives you a hypothesis before the session even opens

PHASE 5: write the plan in ONE sentence

"looking for longs into the 15-minute FVG if we sweep the overnight sellside first"
"looking for shorts if price raids PDH buyside liquidity and gives a bearish reversal signature on the lower timeframe"

ONE sentence.

if you can't write your plan in one sentence, you don't have a plan

if you are not 100% certain and confident, do not take that trade.

PHASE 6: set alerts and hard rules

set price alerts at the liquidity levels you marked
your phone buzzes when price reaches them
you don't need to watch

write your hard rules for the day:

max 2 trades a day
risk: 1% maximum
done at 12:00 PM

these aren't guidelines

now they're non-negotiable

you wrote them

after that?

do nothing, just sit with your plan.
don't adjust it. don't second-guess it. don't open Twitter to see what someone else thinks about the market.

your analysis is done. your levels are marked. your alerts are set. your rules are written.

close the charts until 9:15 AM. no staring. no adjusting. no "let me just check one more time." no Discord. no Twitter. no YouTube. no one else's opinion between your preparation and your execution.

your plan was written before the open. your alerts are set

there is literally nothing productive you can do between now and 9:15, except contaminate your own analysis with noise.

it's 30 minutes of work that nobody wants to do
because it's not exciting enough to post about
which is exactly why it works

I teach this exact strategy, the full model in my FREE discord. everything you just read is what we do every single morning. link in bio.

Real Trading Truths:

1) The best traders have a 40% to 60% win rate

2) Most profitable traders have a 1, 2 or 3 RR, not a 10 RR

3) Losing streaks are normal and common.

$50K Account Closed 2 Days After Purchase, After 4 Months of Clean Payouts

I bought a $10K account, passed both phases, received 5 payouts in 4 months, and made 23.5%. That account is still live. KYC was never questioned in all that time.

Two days ago I bought a $50K account with @fundingpips . Now it's closed, with the reason given as "KYC is not a one-time thing."

If my KYC was a problem, why did nothing come up during 4 months and 5 payouts? Why bring it up only after I paid for a bigger account?
I completed KYC myself, and I'm happy to redo it right now if they want. I was never given the chance. Instead of a request, I got a closure.

At the very least, I should get a refund for an account that was closed 2 days after purchase. Closing it and keeping the money is not acceptable.

@fundingpips @Khldfx please review my case, let me re-verify or refund the $50K. 🙏

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read and share this. I appreciate it. ❤️

2020: I had $1.19 in my bank account when I started trading

2022: I cried when I breached my first 5k @MyForexFunds funded account

2024: I lost 400K in funding overnight and had to start at 0 again

2026: Full time trader, 200+ payouts, 6 figures in profit, $2.4 in funding

through all the pain, god built a warrior…

and a profitable trader
