How do you approach position sizing in volatile conditions?
I size by stop distance, not by a fixed lot. When volatility rises, my stop gets wider, so my lot size gets smaller, and my dollar risk stays the same. That keeps each trade's impact on the account c…

What's your biggest weakness as a trader right now?
Patience after a missed move. When price runs without me, I want to chase it. I've learned that chasing means worse entry, wider stop, and lower reward. My fix is a rule: if I miss the entry, I wait …

Can you make a living from prop firm trading, or is it only a side income for most?"
Yesss but Honestly, for most people it's a side income at first. Consistent payouts take time, and results vary a lot from month to month. I think the healthy approach is to treat it as skill-buildin…

Is it better to trade a challenge on a small account or a big one?
Same percentage rules apply, but the feeling is different. A big account tempts you to size up because the percentage looks small. A small account makes you want to risk more to see real money. I try…

1% risk or 0.5% risk on a challenge with a 10% max drawdown?"
0.5% for me. Ten losses in a row at 1% puts you about 9.6% down, which is almost at the limit. At 0.5%, the same streak costs about 4.9%, so you still have room to recover. Yes, the target takes long…

If you could only keep one rule, which would it be?
Risk per trade. Strategy can be average, entries can be late, and you can still survive if each loss is small.

How long did it take before you became consistent
Longer than I expected. The first months I focused on profit. Consistency only came when I focused on behavior: same risk, same session, same checklist

What's more important: strategy or psychology?"
Both, but psychology decides whether your strategy actually gets followed. A decent strategy with strong discipline beats a perfect strategy you abandon after three losses.

How do you recover mentally after a failed challenge?
I take a few days off, because trading while frustrated leads to the same mistakes. Then I review every trade and ask one question: did I fail because of my strategy or my behavior?

How do you prepare before the market opens?"
"I keep it to 15 minutes. I check the economic calendar for high-impact news, mark the key levels from the higher timeframe, and decide my bias.

"Is a high win rate necessary to be profitable?"
No. A 40% win rate with 1:2 risk-to-reward is still profitable over time, because each win pays double what a loss costs.

Do you move your stop loss after entry?"
Only in one direction: to reduce risk, never to increase it. Once a trade moves in my favor by 1R, I may move my stop to breakeven. But I never widen a stop because I 'feel' the market will turn. Tha…

Do you trade Fridays?
Only the morning session. Liquidity usually drops later in the day, and moves get random as big players close positions before the weekend. Holding trades over the weekend also adds gap risk, which c…

Mine is Once I stopped worrying about every loss, I started following my plan instead of reacting to the market.

How many trades a day do you take during a challenge ?
take 1-2 trades a day, 3 at most. I only trade my A+ setups, so if there's no clear entry, I don't trade

Process vs. results: how do you judge a trade ?
Process, not profit. If I followed my plan, it was a good trade, win or lose. If I broke my rules, it was a bad trade, even if it paid me. How about you....

So What's your realistic monthly goal on a funded account, and how do you avoid pushing for more ?????
Judge myself on process, not on how much I made this week sooo and My realistic goal is 3-5% per month. It's not exciting, but it's sustainable, and on a funded account the real aim is to keep the ac…

Which pair or market do you trade most for challenges: EURUSD, Gold, NASDAQ, or something else?
My favorite is Gold (XAUUSD). It moves enough to give good setups without waiting all day, and it respects key levels well. The downside is that it can spike hard on news, so I keep my risk small and…
