Veteran trader explains how to let your profits run:

Here's what a 70% win rate actually does for you at prop firms: Your trailing drawdown barely moves on losing days You recover faster You stay funded longer You stack more accounts Low RR isn't just a trading style - it's a prop firm survival strategy

“Are you talking to anyone?” God. Jesus. Holy Spirit.

Galatians 6:9

BREAKING: President Trump says it is "too soon" to start preparations for the signing of a peace deal with Iran, per NY Post. US oil prices are now back above $95/barrel on the news.

This is the only way!

That relationship with God is going to save you.

What a privilege to be tired from work you once prayed for. What a privilege to feel overwhelmed by growth you used to dream about. What a privilege to be challenged by a life you created on purpose. Dear God, I'm grateful.

I don’t know how many times you have to be told this But profitable traders aren’t wizards, they’re not trading some ‘golden strategy’ They just: 1. Trade one strategy that has a decent edge 2. Have enough chart time to know WHEN they should deploy their strategy and when to sit out of the markets 3. Have enough emotional control to not make dumb mistakes It’s literally that simple Most of you are looking for the ‘golden ticket’ that will make you profitable The reality is much more boring You just need more repetition with one strategy and more chart time

4 years ago, I made the best decision of my life I made a vow to end my self sabotaging: Never break my rules. Never trade outside my system. Never let emotions take control of me. This is your "aha" moment in trading Your success forward will be determined by how well you can stick to this promise.

When traders say it took them 3-5 years to figure it out They aren’t talking about technical analysis

God is good.

As you are closest to your desires you are closest to the demons around us.

I met a trader who made $340,000 in payouts last year. He wasn't using some complex ICT model or multi-timeframe confluence system. He was trading one setup. London open breakout. That's it. I asked him how many trades he took per month on average. 'Maybe 12-15. Sometimes less.' His win rate was 68%. Average RR was 1.2. Not 3R. Not 5R. 1.2. I asked him why he didn't push for bigger targets. He said something I haven't forgotten: 'I tried going for 3R and 4R for two years. My win rate dropped to 38%. I was technically right about direction way more often than I was getting paid - because I kept getting stopped out before the move then watching price hit where I wanted to exit anyway. It was destroying me mentally.' So he flipped his approach. Smaller targets. Higher win rate. Fewer trades. He started passing challenges consistently because his equity curves were smooth. No massive spikes. No dramatic drawdowns. Just a steady climb that prop firms love to fund and pay out. He scaled from $200k in funding to over $2.1M across 14 accounts in 11 months. Each account averaging 2-3% per month. Reinvesting payouts into new challenges the whole time. Most traders see 1.2R and think it's not worth it. But 1.2R with a 68% win rate at $2M+ in funding? That's the game. You don't need big RR. You need consistency at scale.

Dating a woman who believes in God and prays for you in this generation is very important.
