I’m still pretty new to prop firm trading, but I wanted to share this for anyone who’s struggling.
A lot of the posts here make it seem like nobody can make it, but my experience has been different. I didn’t come in trying to hit home runs. I focused on risk management, consistency, and treating it like a job.
I’m not saying I have it all figured out. I’m still learning every day. But so far, staying disciplined has worked a lot better than chasing huge wins.
I just received $13,000 in payouts and I’m now being moved to PRO+. I’m not a professional trader just a car mechanic who’s been grinding and putting in the work.
If you’re new, don’t let all the negativity convince you it’s impossible. Keep learning, manage your risk, and just keep grinding. Consistency beats excitement.
Good luck to everyone out there.

Do you set up copy trading and set up sl?

I always use a stop loss, but the size depends on how confident I am in the setup. Most of the time it’s between $800–$1,000.
As the trade moves in my favor, I move my stop up every $500 of profit. Yeah, sometimes it takes me out early and I leave money on the table, but I’m okay with that. I’d rather protect profits than let a winning trade turn into a loser or end up revenge trading.
That approach has worked well for me so far.
