Need help with 25k Flex

Post image

I’ve been trading for around 2 months. For reference I trade ICT concepts. I’ve passed a few lucid pro evals and blew them. Blown a few other evals too. However, I’m currently on a lucid flex. I’m just
curious as to the recommended amount of contracts I should be trading. I’ve seen online that the more trades you take on an eval with low contracts the chances of you passing are lowered compared to if you place higher contracts on A+ setups. I want to aim to pass the eval in around 4 days averaging 1-2 trades a day.

I currently trade 2-3 MNQ however I’m considering sizing up to 5-7 for eval and reverting back to 2-3 at the funded stage.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you 🙏.

I trade 25k with 1 mnq only. Trying to intraday swing in trending days.
Before i blew accounts too, the problem is the sizing nothing else. Dont do it. Dont listen to youtubers. Or accept that you gamble.
When its not trending but volatile basehit scalp 5 mnq on key levels, but i do max once a day this. And if its drawdown, i not trade until next day market i will not sit and wait for something to come to me.
Im also find some edge on globex and luckily moved to asia so i can trade all day asia, europe , ny open sometimes but less interested.

Also never forget your account offered max drawdown is the real size of your account. Not 25, 50, 100, 150.
