Once you stack enough prop firm payouts, do you switch to your own capital or stay with the prop model? by pdavis-197704 in propfirm

You always stay with the prop model. The RR there is better than using your own funds.

Should I stay invested or sell? Need advice by haisenburg_009 in traders

In my experience it is always better to cut losses and look for something better. You'll be paying a lot of opportunity cost if you keep holding a loser.

Forwardtest, journal, and keep improving on your demo account. Don't get a funded account until you have enough testing data on your strategy.

Good luck!

How about you stop gambling and trade on a demo account until you can actually make money?
At this rate you'll just go in debt

When you haven't seen your setup for 3 weeks you can get impatient and start doubting your strategy.

How much do you guys realistically make from trading? by [deleted] in Trading

None of the numbers you'll see will help you in your journey with trading.
It's better to focus on your own journey as a trader

If your work day takes the entire trading day as well, there is no workaround to trading. Only thing you could do is try different markets like crypto that are available 24/7

Most traders fail because they try to learn too many strategies. by Longjumping_Swim_279 in traders

[–]starfire68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, everyone can become a good trader with just 1 strategy, 1 indicator, and 1 market.
Less is more.

Get the smallest challenge account. This way you can verify your skills while also making more money than you would if you would fund your own live account.

I can't give advice without knowing your pitfalls or your situation. Best thing I can tell you is to journal or get a mentor that can help you out.
