Roughly 2 years before joining Traderscale, however the first year was not consistent. Experience level intermediate — been in the game long enough to learn the ropes and gain a decent level of market understanding but definitely room to improve and grow as a trader.

Website management.

Seemed like a great way to get the foot in the door with trading besides just trading a live account. I’d heard good things about Traderscale from other traders in the space so was eager to give you guys a try.

Two evaluations, and one attempt to pass each phase.

Overcomplicating by trading too many pairs. When I focused on only 1 or 2 pairs, that’s when I started to see better results.

100k, and yes — added a 200k to the arsenal.

Two on Traderscale. Each phase took roughly 2–3 weeks.

Mechanical trading strategy. Bias revolves around the 4 hour timeframe, entry model is executed on the 15 or 5m timeframe.

Retracing over $500k in live funding. I had to remind myself that if I could gain it once I could gain it back, as the skill never went anywhere.

Requesting my first payout — strong proof of concept moving forward.

2–3 months.

$6,035 — a big relief after getting close multiple times but being knocked down on the equity curve. Glad that I stayed disciplined throughout the process.

Putting most aside for now, just sorting expenses first. It allows me to be a lot more flexible with working hours.

Very fast. I have nothing negative to say about the payout process — I was contacted in less than 24 hours and the person I spoke to was very helpful in sorting the process.

Invest in yourself, get educated, and once you have an edge backed by data, put your money where your mouth is.

That signals weren’t going to make me a consistent gain — actually learning the skill for yourself will. And that strategy is only a percentage of what will drive you to success in the markets; how you are set up on the backend is genuinely just as important.
