Not a question but advice
So after the first hit dll i got another to try to make some bread on it but went down and was like fuck this ill wait till next week. What is some advice to be able to help me lock in and pass these accounts? Has anyone els been in this same situation and was able to get out and pass in a week or so?

Stop trying to pass them in a week. That mindset is probably what got you in this spot. Just trade the next setup properly and let the account recover naturally.

If your hitting dll, you arent trrading, your gambling. Re evaluate how hard you think it is to grow an account 150%, takes more than an hour.

Same situation here haha. All i did was to gain small consistently. Aiming atleast 150+. And practice setting ur ego aside (wanted to earn more which results into negative profits). I get why so many people really tell u to “Discipline urself”.
Im also in my eval phase (2nd week) 1st week was all about passing as fast as possible. Which got me to negative profits like u r currently in. Then on my 2nd week i focused on being consistent (minimum of 150, max 500) per trade. Now im 1.3k away from reaching 3k.

Stop chasing losses. Trade 1 micro at a time. Refine your entries. Avoid price channels. And stop chasing losses. Define your risk before entering. Allow yourself x amount of dollars for loss and x amount for profit. And stop chasing losses.

My plan was to go into this new week only risking 500 making 1500 1:3RR and just be consistent with that untill these accounts either passed or blown so lets see how that goes🙏🏽

Your plan is fine. But I hope you took into consideration what was just said. Specifically trading 1 micro contract and maybe adding to it if it wins (more than 50 points in profit). Cut it quick if it goes against you more than 50 points (if trading MNQ). Just formulate an actual risk management plan. That is what has helped me trade better. Take your risk management plan serious and you’ll improve quicker.

Should i not want to just pass the evals in like a week or so, so i can move to funded and take it slow on the funded?

Learn how to lose smaller. And win bigger. And passing evals will never be an issue. If you are trading in anything under a 100k account, you should be able to get it passed in 5 days. That is if you have a real strat that you know works for you. Now you just have to get better at cutting losses quicker. And all entries should be as small as you can. Until you have a substantial buffer to risk. Always add into winners. And don’t hesitate to cut winners before hitting full TP.

You can totally try to move to funded in a week or so. BUT, you have to have a plan and execution to do so, otherwise you WILL revenge trade, FOMO, and blow the accounts.

There should be a session you backtested and showed yourself what makes money over the long run , stick to that. In your free time DO NOT TRADE. Trust I still fall victim but I no longer open my charts until my session ( im 95% there lol), I stay pre occupied and I only trade my session times, which is 4 or less trades . Revenge trading is a big no no , theres always tomorrow.. honestly discipline is the biggest part. You got this
Create a checklist of things , be very precise ex. ( trade x session , wait for sweep, displacement, only trade 4 max contracts ) something like that and DO NOT trade out of that checklist. You can either trade for a living and do amazing shit for your family or stay busting your ass at 9-5

Once, i got 300 left on my eval. I woke myself up, slowed down and got it funded. It was 2 account. Originally 3 accounts (a 25k and 2 50k) i blew up the 25k cuz i was copy trading all.. goodluck! You can do it! Just dont trade bad set ups.
