Hit the $100k milestone in payouts for 2025 this week! About a year ago my bank account was negative, had $50K+ in credit card debt, had to sell our house end of 2024 to pay it all off. I grinded doing Uber, Doordash, dog walking, anything to help pay the bills over the past few years after quitting my job and moving to AZ to give trading a real shot (wife’s idea 💡 lol don’t recommend it until you’re profitable). I even got my life insurance license towards the end of 2024 and I honestly thought that was going to be my career and my trading was done. I had a couple good months $10k+ doing that but it was a grind making 100-200 calls per day I didn't want that for myself. Then I had a tough streak of getting zero sales on sales calls that I thought were slam dunks they all seemed to fall through, it was the weirdest thing.. I took a step back and thought maybe this was God/The Universe telling me not to give up on trading. So I said screw it, I'm going back to trading to give it one more shot and I stopped doing insurance altogether. I had a little success then I lost more again and thought I maybe made a mistake to stop insurance because my bank acct was getting low again to the point of maybe going back to insurance/ubering. Then things started to click for me right when I needed it the most around the middle of this year 2025. Payouts started coming more consistently for me literally out of nowhere. I visualized and felt the success I've been having lately probably thousands of times. If you're struggling you have to find a way to get in the energy of your future successful self. You don't get the success and then the feeling of it, you have to feel successful first and have that identity and then your outer world will align in time after lots of action/effort too. It takes time and focus and lots of patience and perseverance but if you stick with it you can make it happen! As I've said before I was literally the worst trader ever at one point, but slowly have started to figure things out so if you make the decision to start doing things the right way, start following your rules and system, put your head down for a month, forget the PnL, and literally just FOCUS, you can turn your trading around like I did. Wishing nothing but success for everyone on here, I know how hard/dark/painful trading can be but if you don't give up and continue to learn from the pain you can turn things around too! 💚

Just hit the $90K mark in payouts now for 2025. For anyone struggling, just know I was probably the worst trader in the world at one point making every single mistake you can make daily. Oversizing, overtrading, not taking profits, adding to losers. Anything wrong you can do I was doing it. The hole I dug was so deep that even a nice green day or week didn’t feel like any type of progress because I was down so much over the years over six figures easily after my first few years. But eventually you get to the point of being so sick of your own bs mistakes that you keep making over and over and over that you finally decide to start doing shit the right way and take the long hard road instead of trying to make everything back in one massive home run trade and taking a shortcut. Only once you fully let go of the past losses can you actually focus on building some good habits and start to slowly dig your way out. It took me about 5 years of losing before I’ve finally been able to have some success so if you’ve been losing for a long time just know it can get better but you have to make a commitment to yourself to start doing things the right way or you’ll keep self sabotaging. The slow way is actually the fast way. Stop trying to make it all back and just focus on being a little better every day. Forget the $, just focus on following your trading plan and rules. That’s your only focus. You become a winner in your mind before it happens in your real life so start acting and feeling like a winner today. Every day is a clean slate, forget the past, you control your future. Choose to be the person that does things the right way. Do the hard shit. Do what others aren’t willing to do. This game is hard for a reason or else everyone would do it. Believe in yourself. I wish nothing but success for EVERYONE!💚

Dear @TakeProfitLLC anyone who hit their daily loss limit on their pro+ development accts still cannot trade them. Please update your system so we're not locked out. Haven't been able to trade them for a week now and zero responses from your "support" chat. Thank you.

@bigzaddyfr @TakeProfitLLC Oh gotcha. Yeah they moved me to pro+ before even trading pro accounts after passing my evals so I didn’t have any balance to transfer. Must be a new thing they’re doing now. Have to make over 5k in live instead of over 1500 on the pro accounts for 25k. Quite the task

@Trader_Timbo @TakeProfitLLC I'm referring to the profit that is frozen when you get integrated to Pro+ for example I made 10K the max on my Pro account leaving 5K left in my reserve

@Trader_Timbo @TakeProfitLLC Yeah the pro+ development is very unfortunate, I’m interested to see how the reserves work, since they are essentially splitting our DD in half

@Loyalty_trades @TakeProfitLLC Yeah but drawdown cut in half and you’ll have a daily loss limit. My 25k had only $750 drawdown to start and $500 daily loss limit. Not much room to work with.

@bigzaddyfr @TakeProfitLLC Yeah I can’t get any response. It used to take an hour or so. Now zero response sending messages every day for over a week. Worst change is their pro+ development accounts though, they have half the drawdown and basically forcing traders away from them. No longer my fave firm.

@Tandyman0 @TakeProfitLLC Not sure but I think TPT just does it to discourage traders from trading with them anymore. With the dd cut in half it really sucks and not worth it to trade with them anymore.

@SittingFat @TakeProfitLLC I did see that they said pro+ can now use the live chat but I can't ever get anyone on there to respond. They used to come on after waiting a bit but lately I can't get anyone to respond at all and I just get a useless email with the transcript lol joke

Does anyone even work at @TakeProfitLLC anymore?? Haven't been able to trade my pro+ account for two days in a row after hitting max daily loss a few days ago and still zero response from their "support". What are you supposed to do if the "trade desk" doesn't respond? lol

@Trader_Timbo @TakeProfitLLC They used to have a portal that pro+ live users could communicate with their team, I’ve never reset any accounts. Too expensive.

@pabloticker @TakeProfitLLC Yeah it’s not good. I’m going to steer clear as well unless they change the dd to match the normal dd again. If they want to limit sizing I get that but cutting dd in half is bs

@Trader_Timbo @TakeProfitLLC Omg, I have been living under a rock. Thank you for sharing this. Drawdown are literally razor thin. Steering clear especially after fighting the Intraday trailing DD in the PRO
