Most traders fail because they treat trading like a hobby
You wouldn't show up to a job 2 days a week and expect a salary
Why do you think you can trade inconsistently and make money
If you want to be profitable, you need to treat this like a career
Show up every day
Journal every trade
Review your mistakes
Backtest on weekends
That's how you actually get good at this

topstep is shutting down
let that shit sink in for a second
this is a company that paid out over $100M/month to traders.
the biggest prop firm in futures.
the one everybody started with.
now they're sending emails to traders claiming they were "hedging accounts" and using that as an excuse to not pay out
funny how they found all these "rule violations" that didn't actually happen to most of the traders
traders who did everything right. followed the rules. hit their targets. withdrew legitimately.
now being told they cheated
everybody went through topstep at some point.
it was the entry point into prop trading for thousands of people.
but here's what's crazy
the same thing happened with education
everybody in the trading space went through TJR's mentorship at some point
it was "the" program.
the one everybody recommended.
the concepts everybody learned.
ICT this. ICT that. smart money. displacement. order blocks.
sounded good.
felt like you were learning something.
then you tried to trade it and realized half the shit was missing
no clear entry criteria.
no real risk management framework.
concepts that contradict each other depending on which video you watched.
you'd see a "setup" and take it.
lose.
go back to the videos.
"oh i missed this part."
find another setup.
lose again.
"oh it's because of this other thing."
endless loop
the concepts aren't wrong.
they're just incomplete.
it's like someone teaching you 60% of how to fly a plane and then wondering why you keep crashing
built a following off being the guy who "understood" the market. made ICT concepts mainstream.
but his students?
most of them are still struggling.
still trying to piece together a strategy from scattered youtube videos with 15 missing pieces.
still blaming themselves for not "getting it" when the reality is there was never a complete system to get
TJR's mentorship is collapsing in slow motion because the education model is broken.
you can't teach people 60% of a skill and expect them to figure out the rest.
one took your money
the other took your time
and honestly?
the time is worse
you can make more money.
you can't get back the years you spent trying to make incomplete concepts work.
the trading industry is a graveyard of things "everybody did" that turned out to be garbage
the prop firms everybody used. the mentors everybody followed. the strategies everybody traded.
most of it was broken from the start
the people who actually make money figured that out early and built their own systems from the pieces that actually worked
everybody else is still refreshing their email hoping topstep won't close their account
or still watching TJR videos trying to find the missing piece that was never there
different outcomes. same pattern.
the entry points everybody uses are usually the ones that burn you the worst.

THE SIMPLEST TRADING STRATEGY.
Just using 2EMAs and VWAP.
Red line = VWAP.
Yellow line = 200EMA 1 min.
Blue line = 200EMA 5 min.
( GO TO SETTINGS ANCHOR ON ALL TIME FRAMES)
Wait until 10ET.
If above all lines look long on retracement.
If below all lines look short on retracement.
15-20 point stops enter on EMAs or VWAP
Take profit 15-100+ points.
I do this everyday.
GO BACKTEST STOP BEING LAZY.
