MY TRADING GOALS FOR 2026: 1) £300k additional prop firm funding. 2) +28% total return over the year. 3) Expand my understanding of precious metals and indices to begin trading them alongside currencies.

April 2026 results: Account 1: 6/7 (85%) +1.1% Account 2: 6/7 (85%) +2.2% Account 3: 7/8 (87.5%) +4.0% Account 4: 7/8 (87.5%) +4.1% Overall gain: +2.9% 🔥

Sat on SP500 BUY trade for nearly a month but finally closed today for +1.5% 🔥 🔥 Hugely proud that my risk profile was effective enough to weather all the turmoil of the last month.

We are currently only at 54% of the correction we experienced in the Market in April 2025 following the initial impact of Trumps tariffs. We have not even started to experience the long term damage of the conflict in Iran. But it seems in recent times, long term damage is secondary to short term sentiment when it comes to market price. I have 0 experience or authority in conflict economics, I do intent to take advantage of lower prices but at least for the next week I will not be adding buy positions until I see how price settles over the next few days.

March Results: Account 1: 77% WR +1.2% Account 2: 85% WR +0.7% Account 3: 88% WR +2.7% Account 4: 88% WR +2.7% Overall result is +2.1%

Unless a ‘Trading Guru’ shows you trades before they happen why are you trusting that they are profitable??

@TradersConf Not realising this after $5k just shows you are retarded

I've spent $23,000 on trading courses and have only lose money from trading. I hate this game.

@JacktheFXtrader Word of advice - these lines only work in hindsight. They are not predictive.

Road to consistency Day 5 Coming to the end of the first week It looked like it was just going to be a breakeven week But I took 2 trades today both ended up losing 1st one wasn't valid, I set a buy stop not a buy limit and got tagged before confirmation was confirmed 2nd one was valid idea imo, but given it was 5M trade idea and 1M execution and not 15M trade idea it was far to aggressive and wasn't valid to set But i'll see what @Bradskucetrades says about it in the morning, learn from it and keep moving forward I've simplified and systemised my approach for April and the last few days of March So any mistakes or rule breaks going forward are due to a lack of discipline I will have a much better April, and I will make sure I get back on the right track This month has been a serious learning curve for me, now it just comes down to clean and consistent execution

@TheH0n3stTrader @jawawa95 Dead giveaway

Bruh, trading is so easy. Stop acting like it's rocket science.

@thesohom2 Base hits is what multiplies.

@SpacemanTrader man love seeing this. focusing on quality trades over quantity is a solid approach.

You don’t have to catch every move to be profitable.

Remainder of $GBPCHF climbing nicely today. Will slowly scale out as it climbs.

GBPCHF hit target for +0.2% and half left in. SP500 secondary position at 6668.92 hit TP for +0.3% and original position sitting in floating DD for now.

@StockCuppa I have a similar approach I prefer to be a bit more aggressive on an eval and much more conservative once funded. My risk on funded accounts is so low I worry way more about my evals. I barely think about my funded ones as they just keep ticking over.

My max daily risk on evals is more aggressive than it has mostly been — ✅ I used to take one trade per day; if loss it's a loss. If win it's a win. My R targets over the last 4 years have ranged from 1-5R. Quite the range! Currently, I take up to 5 trades per day on challenges. ✅ My risk per trade has also varied a lot. I've gone from 0.1 lots when I didn't have a clue what I was doing and desperately trying to get out of -9% DD 🫠 To 2% risk per trade when I was super aggressive. My policy today is 1.5% risk per trade on up to 5 trades per day. If I take a loss or have floating (untrailed) risk, my max risk at any point in a single day is -3.75% — allowing for fees to still keep me inside that -5% max daily risk threshold. If I'm on a losing streak, I can take 2 x 1.5% trades, then a final 0.75% trade if back-to-back losses to keep me inside of my -3.75% self-imposed daily limit. Max 2.5 losing trades per day. And if I hit my max daily loss, I'm done. But if I'm winning, I will continue executing trade signals if presented, offering up to a total of 5 winning trades for a +10% payoff. (Rare!) 10/3.75=2.66R upside on that heightened risk. Verifications reduce that format by a third (e.g 1% vs 1.5%). While I don't need to be this aggressive, the value I place on my time has increased. I don't get that time back. I also believe a key sort of edge is in buying challenges that individually aren't considered expensive, and can even be treated as somewhat disposable. I feel like many traders who never make real progress, overvalue challenge phases, leading them to take forever, and/or fail to capitalise on those weeks where the market is really digging our edge 😎 Scared money doesn't make money. Have a good weekend all 👋

@TheH0n3stTrader Risk management is my edge. If you think pretty patterns give you more of an edge than proper risk management you don’t understand trading.

Extremely unpopular opinion: Risk management is what unprofitable traders talk about instead of admitting their strategy has no edge.

@TheH0n3stTrader Gotta be rage bait 😂

Taking partial profits is the dumbest thing a trader could ever do.

Entering two BUY positions: 1) SP500 targeting the Tuesday high 2) $GBPCHF @ 1.04830 targeting 1xATR at 1.05236

These two account's equity charts are too clean not to share 🔥

Clean entry on SP500 today 💨

@TheH0n3stTrader I’d be so miserable with only hundreds of thousands.

0.25% risk per trade won't, ever make you a millionaire trader.

+0.92% trade on S&P500 🔥 -0.08% on $GBPCHf Already hit target for March after 6 days trading. Everything from here on out is bonus.
