Just sent in the paperwork for my first ever prop firm payout. Almost 4 Years of work has culminated to this point. I know my posts don't show most of it, but at least you're here for this pivotal moment. I can't wait for the journey ahead that will periodically be shown off here. Stay tuned 😘

Got another 50k funded account with a previous strategy. Ended day 3 with a balance of $3736. Monday is a Holiday, but I'm hoping that next week leads to my first ever payout with prop firm trading.

Never traded this well in my life, and I did it by discretionary scalping NASDAQ Futures all before 12p.m. EST.
$4080 on my first day of a new funded account with Topstep.
Feels good that I get to start next week with double the drawdown.

When you're long on low volume, low delta, far expiration options

(the spread widens by a lot sometimes and the Robinhood equity chart tracks the middle of the spread. There is 0 chance of me capturing this value)

Some updates. I lost that previous funded account I had with Topstep. Immediately started another evaluation at Topstep and ended up passing in 3 days with 2 of them being max win days. I've now had an awkward Thanksgiving trading week. Coulda had bigger profit or taken smarter direction but meh

Almost lost the funded account and ended up taking a $1200 dollar loss on my first day 😭

Passed my Topstep evaluation. Poggies

I'm also currently going through my 38485th Proprietary Trading Firm evaluation. I've been with Topstep ever since the Forex firms kicked out U.S. traders because they all use CFDs.
I've enjoyed the switch to futures trading and I'm currently trying to stick to a discretionary style of trading.

This was a few days ago when it was 3 months since my most recent investment account drawdown and the lowest my account has ever been. I rebalanced my account into mostly QDTE, some MSTY, and some calls on GM.

I'm still about $5600 from my account being in the green, but we take what we can get.
