My favorite email lol. 🎯

My Funded Future payout process is incredible!! The whole process was smooth and fast, I didn't have to anything.
They submit the request, the payout was approved in matter of minute and I received in less than 10 minutes.

This processing speed is incredible and I like that.
I want to see more email like this lol.

I am grateful to see this kind of growth and improvement in my trading.

I Also know that there is work to do and I can not get complacent. This is a daily improvement thing, making the right decision everyday and believing that it's gonna happen.

I wish luck my friend, Let's keep going 👊🏾🎯

Good Morning Youtube!!!

It has been a minute since I last posted on here. I had to take a break from trading and work on my psychology,
my mindset, my trading schedule and trading plan.
At some point, I felt overwhelmed with life priority and trading at the same time wasn't working. So I need the time off to put my life in order and I believed that would also show in my trading.
And It did!!
Closing the month of November with my second ever payout from prop firm.
I just passed Phase 1 of MFF 25K static challenge and I am due for a payout.
I am very happy for that, it just show that progress is not linear.
There will always be ups and downs, how you manage them and not giving up is the key.

Unfortunately, MFF is discontinuing the 25K static account and the other milestone program as well at the end of this month (November 30)

Use my Code to get 10% off the milestones or any other program.
The benefit with the milestones program is that you will get paid while passing the combine.
So you don't have to deal with activation fees, or passing combine then working on actual payout.
You start getting rewarded from showcasing good risk management and consistency in the challenge phase until you reach live account.

I believe that It is a really good incentive to help traders respect risk and want to consistently aim for realistic base hit profit target!!

I am happy to be back

On our way to 500 subs!!!

I appreciate you guys, let's keep growing the community and join the family if you are new.

Until Next time, Safe Trading to Y'all.

My Funded Futures BEST Milestone Plan: 25k Static.🎊

I have always been a big fan of 50k Accounts which are cheap and affordable and have decent drawdown to manage. But MFF New 25k Milestone offers STATIC drawdown in my opinion is a very good option for traders that are looking for longevity, growth and being paid while being discipline and doing the right thing.

Here are the parameters:
Each phase profit target is $1500.
20% consistency is roughly $300 per trading day.
Within estimated 5 days, you can reach the payout - risk management is clearly key to make it each time.
You get paid for reaching take profit while practicing good risk management.
This plan forces you to not over leverage unnecessarily and work on developing good risk management habits

Cost with code Thiago: $171.75 (25% off ends 11/1 and 10% off the milestones programs until 11/30)
Total Payout of 4 Phases: $4250

I hope this helps with picking the right account for you 📝

Good morning Traders!!!

Another day, another opportunity to show up be 1% better.

No video today!

The market conditions are worst that yesterday, a lot of seek and destroy.

I prefer to not engage and resume fresh next week

There was a bit of setback but we gotta keep going

I am planning on nuking the Funded account I got my first payout on so that I can focus on the new 3 Funded accounts.

The account has been drawdown for months so might as well use the other ones! My Funded futures only allow 3 active funded accounts and I have 4 so one has to go!!!

By nuking I will be aggressive on the risk when my setup presents. It might turn out good for me or I might just lose the account.

This is not something I would recommend but in this particular situation, it’s the best thing to do to save up time and mental energy.

See you next Wednesday,

Until then safe trading …

Good morning Traders !!

Another day ... we get to show up and aim to be 1% better than yesterday.

A lot has happened this morning, I got cooked by the market. Literally couldn't get a good read on price and just a lot of seek and destroy.

I am frustrated about the constant one step forward and two steps back but I got to keep going.

I hit daily loss limit on Both of MFF Funded accounts and the new Topstep XFA is gone!!

I just couldn't stop myself when I should and it turns out pretty bad.

It has just been a frustrating morning!!

Meanwhile I managed to pass two New MFF Combines so I can start fresh but I know that none of that is the solution to my current problem.

I need to learn to accept loss and not force anything when I don't have a good read on price.

I will be back tomorrow!!

it sucks that I am creating these unnecessary barriers and slowing down my growth.

But gotta keep going!!!

I will update today's video soon

Until next Time ... Peace!!!

Friday August 16th Journal:

However When Comes 09:00, It was a different story and I made a huge management mistake.

I ended up on tilt for that entire session blowing my personal Daily loss limit and MFF Daily loss limit.

There were a couple of reasons that happened:

I can blame the market because it was a very shitty and choppy price action.

I can blame my lack of discipline for not stopping when I reached my personal daily loss limit because I know how painful it is to reach the Prop firm DLL. It is a huge setback because all of the progress I made doing the right thing got erased in a single session and I have to go back to zero.

It has a very negative impact on my development as a trader, making it feel like doing the right thing, taking appropriate risks, and trading mindful can’t yield results.

which is totally false but these kinds of events may lead to deviating from doing the right thing because I will see doing the right as slow and I don’t want to deal with the pain of setbacks.

There were a couple of things or decisions I could have made that I will make in the future that could have easily changed the outcome of that day.

1. Taking the time to reset myself before starting the next session

2. By meditating Between the end of the 08:00 session to the opening range of the 09:00 session

3. Meditating between 09:00 and 09:30 would have helped me clear my mind and look at the market with a much clearer perspective and Focus.

4. Determining a Risk and sticking to the trade. The First or second trade I took, and risk $100 on would have been profitable If I didn't micro-managed it. In the worst-case scenario, if the price took me out at the 19,450 level, I would have lost less than my personal DLL of $250 and would still be profitable for the week at around $400.

5. Sticking to my bias. At one point I questioned my bias which led to me getting out of trade too early and micro-managing because I kept entering and taking small losses.

6. Sticking to a maximum of 1 trade per session: 1 trade between 07:00 and 08:00, 1 between 08:00 and 09:00, 1 trade between 09:00 and 10:00, and if allowed 1 trade between 10:00 and 12:00.

7. After 2 losses, reducing my risk by half: Maybe $100 at the 07:00 session, $100 at 08:00, and $50 at 09:00.

These rules and game plans are in place to protect me against myself.

I can be afraid when I don’t know what’s gonna happen

I can be fearful of losing the profit I spent a whole week building

I can be anxious about when price gets closer to my stop

But I should not let my fears, and anxiety dictate my actions, both in trading and in life.

I am not going to beat myself down. I made mistakes that led to setbacks, I made decisions out of fears and anxiety that got me cornered. I was blinded at times but Not anymore.

I am the only one in my corner who understands what I want to do and where I want to go. I need to be my own biggest supporter even when I make mistakes, those mistakes are just lessons to learn from.

Losses happen, mistakes occur, and it is not the end of the world.

We learn from it, Next week is a new week and we get the opportunity to improve and get better.

The market will be there.

It’s gonna be alright
