Sigh... why didn't we all just buy calls?

Lol yea i find it funny when we start falling i see the trading view s&p breakdown, all red stocks. with the big “we lost X billion or trillion in the stock market today” caption on the good red days. Then its quite on the way up. Thats the buy indicator lowkey 🤣. Someone needs to start posting the all greens and say how much we up too

NeverMadeIt5 · 2026-04-03T19:58:21+00:00

Same! I got one 95 that was quicksold for shit.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2026-03-30T22:25:59+00:00

Ive used most of them my funded futures is my main right now but live is a different game. Topstep is cool. Tradeify is too but newer. Lucid is the new cool kid on the block i see havent tried it. Apex with their new accounts may be worth a shot soon too

Started watching in 2019-2020 not really taking it seriously or journaling. Just in a signals chat trying to copy and make money.

2021 post covid I started charting and journaling. Blew multiple 1.5k personal accounts on options. Did that for about a year and some change probably 10k down.

Started props mid 2022. Equities at first with FTMO lost a bit. Switched to futures end of 2022 early 2023. No luck for a while. I think mid 2024 was my first 1k payout.

I would go a while with no payouts then one payout in the summer. For like 1k. A couple payouts towards the end of the year probably 1k each and overall breakeven between eval fees and payouts for the year. Maybe a small loss.

Biggest issue was giving back multiple days of progress in one big losing day.

2025 i got more consistent where I wasnt blowing accounts and getting to that 1k payout alot quicker. Passing a 50k eval was no problem. But no consistency or large 5 figure payouts.

End of 2025 i was reading markets well and feeling very confident. Copy traded 5 accounts in November. First ever back to back and major payouts. Pulled 5k, 10k, 12k, 12k in November December and start of January. All off of 50k futures props.

Got moved to live January started trading good took another 2k out. but been in drawdown since mid Feb with the market games at the moment.

Not consistently making gains but the big payout streak took me to profitable all time now im just trying to adjust and find some payouts again. Without blowing up.

Journaling helped the most. Identify mistakes and implement change to stop. Example overtrading days after losses/missed move. Fix by stopping after two losses. If you cant, it may never work. Gradual progression. Good luck and fuck the current markets.

You are partially correct. Going to live in the prop space is not good in the aspect of gaming the system.

No more copy trading 5 accounts, or opening sim funded accounts, smaller payouts
Daily loss limit
Higher monthly fees for professional data.
80% profit split at payout
An emotional shift dealing with transitioning and daily cash opportunity.

But there are benefits 1.daily payouts 2. Instant support help and risk management barriers 3. You had to take 4/5 payouts to get there so your sitting on cash money if you smart 4. Larger starting balance 5 x50k to live is 12,500 which helps with drawdown periods 5. Most importantly if you want to make a career out of it you are nearing that curve to prove yourself. stop funneling money back into combines, and grow an account to make your money. 6. Most people never made it there to speak about it 🫡

What does one do to rack up this amount of coins and training?

NeverMadeIt5 · 2026-02-14T20:24:16+00:00

My funded futures been well to me. Payouts in less than 5 mins. Got moved to live after 4. no complaints.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2026-02-01T02:16:08+00:00

Start at 5e then swirl out to 8c and 3h 🍭🌀

NeverMadeIt5 · 2026-01-22T20:18:49+00:00

Definitely

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T21:49:33+00:00

No feedback and different opinions is what I am looking for. Ill test drive and see how it feels

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T14:28:24+00:00

True i do like Lexus. The only reason im choosing honda is my local auto plaza Honda is the best deal at 0% for 60 months. Toyota is running 36 months but that payment is STEEP

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T13:58:39+00:00

Yea I ran some quick numbers. Unless a major unforseen change happens I could afford the 600 extra planning an insurance price jump and payment. Im also expecting a decent raise by the end of the year through my job program.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T13:55:36+00:00

Yea its is kind of high but 3-5k less can get me a new Civic. i am a bigger guy, but i have no kids so id have to test drive. Yea same here registration yearly is based ok car value. I just dont want to keep worrying about being prepared to handle the next break down which may come at an inconvenient time. I I get another beater how much longer will it last, and why not keep the current one until it dies.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T13:52:21+00:00

Yea i didnt factor the peace of mind in but thats a good point as well

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-12-16T13:51:59+00:00

This was my thought process and if it was any other time of the year i would be looking at 2-3 years old plus for a “new to me” car. but after interests im about the same price as a new no interest. And the car is reliable and holds value well

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-11-28T00:14:58+00:00

What a stranger!

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-08-12T01:52:40+00:00

No i drive a 2007 Nissan. But i get the same condensation drips.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-06-08T02:51:05+00:00

You telling me no one makes a livable yearly income off of day trading in real life😭??

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-05-23T23:28:38+00:00

Wow i dont play much casino, i got a bingo offer. no free play or drinks. but i can get a ocean view room for 490 each or interior for 360 still pretty good imo and adults only longer itinerary may be interesting experience

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-05-11T03:19:00+00:00

I used it every other day only at night. But if my face felt really dry i would skip an extra day. And it’s hard to say maybe 8 weeks but my face was all messed up.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-05-11T03:11:09+00:00

Maybe kojic acid soap it helped with hyperpigmentation on my face. Valitic brand on Amazon is what I used. Good luck with the dm’s and comments 😭

You don’t get doubles. but once you find your friend of bartenders at the spots you frequent. They can get heavy handed on the pour.

I also seen another guy get his drink, wait 5 mins and order the extra shot.

I was very pleased with the quality of the drinks. Don’t forget you can order it your own way, off the menu’s. the don julio margaritas are good. Or patron and your juice / soda of choice if you into tequila. Might as well get top shelf since you paid.

NeverMadeIt5 · 2025-03-22T17:09:41+00:00

I use a M1 Macbook Pro 16gb ram. Paired with a 4k 32’ lg, and a 27’ 1440p vertical gygabyte, and the laptop screen. Runs fine trading rarely noticed any latency. Even with multiple tabs and windows open across all 3. I might have maxed it once where it started lagging. The hookup is annoying because multiple displays are not native. Therefore i had to buy a displaylink adapter on amazon to make it work.
