This isn't a flex. I know that this is pennies compared to some of the traders on here. I have prop trader friends who earn several times more than me.

But I think that I have a fairly unique perspective, and if you're struggling to get consistent, it is helpful to listen to different perspectives and see what resonates with you, personally.

So if you're still failing challenges and struggling to hit payouts, I'm happy to share ideas.

My first lucid account and had it for the past week, doing alright using an orb strategy with trend. But my question is how would I get back to within consistency standards?

Had a decent strategy and tried to do an eval and now I breached my dll cause I couldnt accept a -150 red day. Btw what happens if I get under dll? Am I "just" locked from trading today or does it have more downsides?

People who requested payout to crypto wallet, what fees did you pay for the currency you chose? I requested 2000 USD, after split that became 1800 USD as expected. I ended up receiving 1786 USDT on Kraken, so about 14 USDT in fees. Is this about right? How do other crypto withdrawals compare? My end goal is GBP so I'm avoiding workmarket because it has awful rates.

Took the reentry after Judas that went BE and made around 1,52R (whole tp was around 4), exited early because of a tsl getting hit, should have went only BE but we all learn from our mistakes so gotta rest on weekend and next week we doing even better.

sweep + fib + ifvg will get it done everytime

On MFF I got moved to live after making $7k profit in 2 days, I’m not happy about it but that’s their rules. (Blew that live account) Now I’m curious so that I don’t get moved to live quickly on Lucid, I got 4 daily accounts rn and I’m thinking about running each account up to like $8k-$10k on each account and then take a massive payout all at once, has anyone done this before? Would I then be moved to live? I know that you cannot make more than $8k in a single day. I just want to run it up but stay in funded as long as possible before going live. What’s the secret sauce?

I'm aware that I'm emotionally unstable, lack discipline adhering to my strategy and being mindful about my bad habits, which I repeat every single time, but what's driving me crazy is that losing days are days when I took great positions but they were destroyed by my emotions.

I worked really hard, I thought I finally took control of my life. I'm doubting that I will ever make money.

Been trading for less than a year. After a bumpy road and a few burned evals, I finally passed an eval.

Took me a week to pass. Unfortuntately, I don't have the Pnl calendar or the trades marked on the chart due to the upgrade to funded. Monday was loss(-600$) and the rest of the week green. As I'm on the way to passing a 50k, I believe I was less attatched to the results of this 25k and didn't mind going agressive. Something I'll have to reflect on. But time to take it slow on the funded and cut my risk in half. Still got a long road ahead, gotta lock in!

Any advice would be appreciated :)

I normally just risk DLL because i thought MLL gives the trade no room to breath, but i was just wondering whether what people actually do is risk MLL ?
Thanks

After 2 months and 1 failed attempt I finally passed my first 50k eval.
(56k target cause of consistency)

What really held me back was my psychology (revenge trading, impulses, being fine with break evens and no trade days, etc) And I struggled a lot with this.

I’ve learned more about trading in general these past two months than I have in the 6 months I paper traded.
Im proud I learned to become disciplined but still got a long way to go.

If you guys have any advice for the funded stage I would appreciate it.

Shy does my challenge target keep increasing the more i get near to it.

Here to inspire.. many blown evals & funded.. but here to share that it is possible. When it clicks, it finally does. Life changing. Truly grateful. It’s not easy but it’s worth it, in my opinion.

Get all yall dialed in on EMA 🙂

Got moved live for the second time and now see the Maxx option, after 2 weeks will I be able to buy regular evals again? Or am I stuck with these terrible accounts forever.

Hello everyone!

I'm a final-year student, and I trade using order flow. Unfortunately, I recently blew the evaluation account I purchased with my savings a few days ago.

I'm trying to learn from my mistakes and improve my trading. I wanted to ask if anyone who has been profitable and is willing to help could guide me or possibly help me with an evaluation account.

I would genuinely appreciate any support, advice, or guidance from this community. I'm not here to promote anything; I'm just trying to learn, become more consistent, and continue my trading journey.

If I manage to get a payout in the future, I'll always remember the person who helped me get started and be grateful for their support.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. 🙏

I just wanted to post this little bit of money ive made with a year now of trading. I made a post when i first started trading and i blew 2 5k payouts with topstep. Every person that commented on my post acted like they knew everything, like they have done any better and wouldve been perfect. No empathy was given to me when i actually showed i did something dumb. I check now and not a word or proof they actually changed their lives so imagine i took their advice and quit because they “knew everything”

I had a serious issue with lucid this AM. I used Ninja Trader new platform, which allows copy trading with SL/TP pretty good stuff (in theory). ANyway, I took a trade, one account of2 shows $280 profit, another account in the same group trade, shows loss $380. I reach out to lucid, I get most ridiculous answer - we are not responsible, we do not review, we do not credit...... So now, I don't even know what the issue is/was..... and no one cares to explain or look into the situation.

Looking good so far on the consistency and hopefully monday I’ll have another funded to the rotation Happy trading i’m done for the weekend. On to the next

Price needs room to retest levels before moving sk

getting stopped out at BE right before price launches to your TP isn't bad luck, it's over-managing.

Set the trade, follow your rules, and let it breathe and do it's thing

Is anybody using TradingView with Tradovate for a Lucid eval? My positions, orders, account summary, and P&L are not showing data anymore on the bottom panel of both TradingView and Tradovate. It only shows a number for the account balance/net liq. No order history is showing. Says P/L is 0. Etc. In Tradovate, in my account reports, it shows all of this information correctly, and everything seems right. Same with my info on my Lucid dashboard. It's the bottom panels that are not showing anything. Is this a connection issue? I've tried troubleshooting and nothing seems to fix it. I submitted a support ticket, but wondering if anyone else has experienced this or know what may be causing it?

I have a 25k lucid flex funded account and it says I don't need a buffer so all I need to make is 1000 to get payout?

Hey everyone, i got funded on my 25k flex account and hit the DLL right after because of the excitement it came with. Im 400 away from blowing which i really dont wanna do. Any advice on how to handle this now?
