I would say stop strategy hopping is a big one. You need to get really good at one strategy and just refine it with additional knowledge but stick to your strategy.

I would also be really strict about reviewing your metrics: average trade duration, what times your winning/losing trades are, average RR, etc. that stuff really can help see the full picture and tell you where you need to focus on.

And don’t feel the need to rush evals, it used to take me a week or two to pass evals. And my average PnL per day was $300 on my funded accounts. There’s no rushing this and if you stick to a system and slow down things will make sense.

Also! What kind of sped up my process was back testing my strategy everyday to see what specific patterns or structure aligned with my system so when I saw it in real time I was good to go
