I've been trading for 8 years. Here's a bunch of controversial trading beliefs I have. (Don't read if you're sensitive). 🧵

Some pretty insane market crashes after-hours. Might have to do some shopping tomorrow.

Some advice nobody wants to hear: If you can't pass a prop firm challenge with 1% risk per trade, you won't pass it with 3%. You'll just fail faster.

Spending over $300,000 on ads for a side business has been pretty fun.

You know a prop firm is struggling when they post a screenshot from Discord with a trader saying "Thanks for the payout! Even though it's 3 weeks late."

A consistency rule is just a lock on your payout. We don't have one. On any program 🔓

Influencer: "$53K payout this month 🤑" What he cropped out: Account #819. Buddy, that's not a payout. That's a refund on your own spending.

Respectfully... Pretty wild that they had literally 3 years to brainstorm challenges and this is what they bring.

I love competition. Truly. It makes everybody better and I was hyped to see something really cool. This ain't it.

You can now launch a full prop firm with AI in a weekend. Dashboard. Terminal. Fake payout certificates. Support bot. So here's my rule: If a firm can't show you 2+ years of paying traders, don't give them $1.

I’m shocked. An influencer made hundreds of thousands of dollars from prop firms. But he just got exposed for hiding the fact that he also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on evals? I’m absolutely shocked. Never in a million years could have predicted this.

Honestly, Lark Funding is really great. There aren't many companies where the CEO personally steps in to resolve issues on Discord. You don't have to deal with AI support and wait ages just to get connected to a real person.

Replying to @larkfunding
I’m truly grateful to Lark Funding, and I’m still amazed by what they offer. No other firm offers three free retries or pays a monthly salary even when you’re in drawdown. I hope more people come to know about these benefits. Thank you, as always, for everything you do.

You can't fake a 4+ year track record.
I’ve received a payment of $2,393 from Lark Funding. When I first started using them, I was a little concerned because they were a relatively small company. However, my total payments from Lark Funding have now exceeded $20,000, and I’ve never experienced any issues, such as payment refusals. They also have a four-year operating history. Their Step 1 accounts are expensive, but considering the three free retries (allowing up to four challenge attempts per purchase) and the monthly salary, I believe they offer excellent value for money. They also have no rules regarding specific trading metrics or consistency requirements. I believe their challenge currently has some of the most lenient trading rules and is one of the most trader-friendly programs available. In contrast, Alpha Capital Group refused a payout of approximately $7,000 and suspended my account, yet I have not received an adequate explanation or proper resolution. I look forward to continuing to work with you. Thank you! @larkfunding @MeetMattL @AlphaCapitalUK

Same goes for backtesting. Trading a $10 live account for a week will teach you more than 3 months of backtesting.
Mindset content is procrastination & masturbation. Constantly indulging in it does too much harm. A form of gluttony

If I had a trading strategy that compounded my money by 1%/day, you couldn't pay me $1 million. I would never share it with you. But influencers want us to believe they'll give us the secret in a Telegram group for $99/month? Okay buddy.
