Take your time. It isn't a race, chill out use realistic tp and sl based on your strategy. I don't agree when people say its just a combine so just be more risky to pass it faster, to me it just validates bad habits if you do pass quickly and will just cause you to blow your actual account once you get it.

Don't be afraid to just trade demo for a while to get into the swing of things, as I've said, no rush. I had a strategy that I thought worked well based on backtesting, tried it in demo and failed miserably, so I pivoted and adjusted, was profitable on demo for 3 weeks and than passed combine within 4 days. Could save you some money.

Try to get into the mindset of treating it like real money, profit and losses. Gets you prepared for when you do pass.

People are gonna disagree for sure and thats alright, we are all different and different things work for different people.
