You don’t lack discipline. You lack respect for your own word. You’ll wake up at 7AM for a salary. But sleep through the work that could change your life. You’ll follow a boss’s rules. But break your own trading plan in seconds. The market doesn’t punish bad strategy. It punishes weak character. If you can’t keep promises to yourself, you won’t keep them when money is bleeding. And the market will expose that every time.

10 DAYS WINSTREAK! 🥳 +2k on all topstep accs +4k personal acc Hope you had a good trading day 🍀

@eriktrades_ First slide is 1hr not 30m

@eriktrades_ Joining lath to learn from you

took 4 wins and one loss that was completely avoidable on premarket, keep strength switching boys

We will never have an “intraday” trailing drawdown rule that bust you out of a profitable position in the middle of your trading day, losing your account, just bc it pulled back a bit too much. If that has happened to you make the switch.

Do you understand it now?

Stop flexing PNL. No one cares. Show your actual executions + explain WHY you entered: setup, edge, risk rules, and market context. That builds real credibility and helps others learn way more than screenshots of money. Process > profits.

If trading view changed replay executions your favorite mentors wouldn’t post as much. I Promise you that.

Metals save the Day, lots of logic for shorts for PM session here. I recorded my execution for this trade as well. Comment requirement is now 200. 100 was way too easy for y’all.

Many people DM’d me today asking: “Why did you take a long this morning after a 250-point pre-market dump?” The answer is very simple… If you understand and apply a few basic market structure concepts, you’ll stop fighting price and start printing money. Here’s exactly why I took it, and how you can spot the same setup next time. 🧵👇🏻🦜🔥

🦜 Red Day at the Green Bird Ports - And a Much-Needed Reminder 🚫🔥 Red day today - and here’s the truth: I didn’t follow my rules. I didn’t follow my plan. And the market made sure I paid for it. I wanted the long early this morning, but the market gapped up a few hundred points without ever giving me my model entry. That should’ve been my cue to sit out completely. Instead, I took stabs at shorts - no confirmations, no structure, just guessing where a reversal might happen. And obviously… I paid the price. 📉 Loss Breakdown (Full Transparency): 🔻 Tradeify ×5: –$3,790 each → –$18,950 🔻 MFFU ×2: –$1,200 each → –$2,400 🔻 Apex ×10: –$345 each → –$3,450 🟥 TOTAL LOSS TODAY: –$24,800 The good news? Every account hit its daily loss limit, which stopped me from going into super-tilt or blowing anything up. The risk framework worked - even when I didn’t. After a big streak of massive wins, it’s easy to get a little too comfortable… a little too confident… a little too loose. Today was a friendly (and expensive) reminder: Respect the model. Respect the rules. Respect the market. Back tomorrow with discipline locked in. 🦜💚🧠

Here's what Topstep isn't telling you in their new update ⬇️ And soon, there will be many traders in for a big surprise when they go to request their second payout and are denied / ineligible. Topstep's big announcement today very clearly specified that nothing was changing in regards to the firm's policies (literally saying "Same rules."). Yet, they quietly added this incoming update "coming soon" onto their website. Soon, you won't be able to take a second payout unless your balance is at or above your first payout request amount. So, if you make $8,000 and withdraw $4,000, you won't be eligible for future payouts if your balance is below $4,000. Yes, if your balance is still THOUSANDS of dollars into profit (but below $4,000), you can't withdraw any of the money you rightfully earned. Every system has losses and swings in PnL, and this rule is designed to stop further payouts. This type of scummy move is what you'd expect from a shitty smaller firm (or Apex), not Topstep. It's a terrible policy disguised as promoting account longevity, when in reality it's just meant to make it far more difficult for you to take payouts. It's a scummy move, which I guess shouldn't be surprising after Topstep got other firms to adopt their trading platform just to rug pull it once the major bugs were figured out (there are still issues). You're entitled to your opinion on that move ^, but this new policy change is straight up 100% anti-trader. This rule has 0 benefit and only downsides to the trader. Sharing this is important because I doubt even 5% of people using or not using Topstep have noticed this upcoming change. I didn't notice it either - it was sent to me by a member on Prop Firm Center discord.gg/dX8WEwUrvS Maybe they'll send out an email to all users once the new change is live. However, regardless of Topstep's ethics on sneaking this onto their site while clearly promoting "Same rules", this incoming policy is terrible. If this doesn't matter to you - sure.... but, if it does, just use one of the MANY firms where the money you make is YOURS once funded. I'm not using a firm where I'm not eligible to withdraw the money I earned just because my account balance is $1 below the amount of what I last requested (while still being THOUSANDS into profit!).

Got some emails from them this morning all I will say is dumbest live account I've heard of not even 10:1 Micro to Mini ratio. Sacrificed a month on 2 rapid accounts ran up $60k to get cucked. Thank you @fnfutures @Flynn3624 solid experience

i want everyone to remember that you can see minimal incremental improvement for so long, and it becomes draining at times the actual physical 'progress' often doesn't appear till much longer, but once it does, it comes in surplus last long enough to build specific knowledge some people can iterate quickly, and others need to see the same thing 100 times before it makes sense try to genuinely think about what is holding you back, pen and paper, no blasting music in the background, and find out who you are and what kind of traits are foundational to you short week ahead, use intention each day

I wrote this thread out of my love for trading psychology, my love for trading, and my admiration for Alex Honnold’s dedication to a life’s work. I run a small Discord with friends where we share trades, talk psychology, hold each other accountable, and tackle this craft together. If this thread resonated with you, you’re welcome to join us. I look forward to meeting you. discord.gg/bVNhuqqZWY

Now was not the time to wonder if you left the stove on. Now was not the time to let fear or doubt poison your decisions. Now was not the time to look down at the height — only at the next move. This was Alex Honnold free soloing El Capitan in 2017. This thread explores the parallels between what it took to accomplish this feat — and what it takes to become a 1% trader.

🦜 A DEFINING DAY - AND A 700% MONTH 🚁🔥 Today was one of the biggest milestones of my trading career. Caught a 400+ point long from the bottom and held it the entire way - pure conviction, pure structure, zero hesitation. Price confirmed the strongest buy signal I have in my entire arsenal: the Failed Breakdown - my highest-conviction reversal model. When that confirmed, I added size with full confidence and rode the wave all the way. Closed the session with +$7,168 on my Webull account. NO PROP ACCOUNTS TODAY Today wasn’t the day to stress-test the prop accounts. I didn’t want prop firm pressure ruining my weekend or distracting me from the moment. But here’s the part that still blows my mind… One month ago, I publicly posted that I was funding a small personal Webull account with $5,000 just to complement my prop futures trading setups with options and mnq’s. Today that account sits at $35,000. Up over 700% in just over 30 days and I’m not stopping here. No YOLOs. No gambling. Just the same mechanical Green Bird setups I use in futures - applied to options with discipline and timing. And if you look closely at the chart… that little green light at the bottom left side means it’s a real live account, not sim. Real dollars. Real execution. Real profits I could withdraw today if I wanted to. Some days humble you. Some days test you. And some days validate the entire journey. Today was one of those days. 🦜🔥

@thebrianstonk How are you not over the 100k lifetime limit w/ Tradeify? Didn’t you get a payout over 100k before going live the first time?

$25k across all props and live. 💰 Payouts secured Gotta keep milking!

🦜 The next evolution of the Green Bird model. A month ago, I put $5K into a Webull account - specifically to apply my futures prop firm setups into the options market. And I’ve been crushing it. +315% already and the 5k account is already above 20k and almost out of the PDT rule (25k minimum balance) which will allow me to day trade every day and not only 3 day trades every 5 days. Here’s the thing - The skillset you gain becoming a profitable prop futures trader is unmatched: → The ability to identify high-conviction short-term moves → The confidence to execute fearlessly → The precision to maximize each setup Once you have that, it’s time to expand the canvas - take that same skillset and express it in the options market with more time, leverage, and scalability. I’ll be sharing this journey with you all - real trades, real results, full transparency. If you’ve mastered futures, this next chapter will open your eyes. 🦜
