If you have $100 to buy prop firm account
It’s always better to buy small accounts from a firm that will pay you
Than buy big account from cheap firm that wouldn’t
$50k account from a good firm >>>> $100k account from a cheap firm
Ignore and perish
A prop firm can actually make a trader a millionaire in USD in a couple of months if that trader has an edge and is also disciplined.
What are your thoughts
Or am I getting it all wrong ?
When I first started trading, I made around $2 profit and got way too excited.
Instead of waiting for another clean setup, I jumped straight back into the market and started overtrading.
A few bad decisions later, the account was gone.
That experience made me realize that trading is less about finding perfect entries and more about controlling emotions, managing risk, and staying disciplined.
That’s also one of the reasons I became more interested in prop firm style trading later on. The rules force you to slow down, respect risk, and trade with more structure instead of pure emotion.
Most beginners don’t lose because of strategy.
They lose because of impatience.
A lot of traders are trading the same ICT concepts.
Same H1 FVGs
Same Order Blocks
Same liquidity targets (BSL/SSL)
Which raises a real question If the majority is watching the same levels where exactly does the edge come from?
Is it still about the setup, or the way you execute and manage it differently?
Most traders fail evaluation accounts because they trade the account like a lottery.
If that sounds familiar, this post is for you.
One truth you don't know about the traders who pass is that they:
- Protect their capital
- Controls their risk
- Wait for clean set ups
- Focus on process over outcome
- Choose the right firm to trade with.
Because they are aware that getting funded is not about making money fast, it is more about you surviving long enough for your edge to play out.
A lot of people stop trading at all-time highs
But why wouldn’t you?
If momentum is still taking the market up, you just need to ride with it
Since there’s no supply / demand zones to target you target psychological numbers instead.
Only enter a trade when the Daily, 4H, and 15M all point in the same direction.
If they don't align, don't submit the trade.
This filter alone can get you funded.
How do you react after 2 losses in a row?
Stop trading?
Reduce risk?
Go harder?
I'm looking into Hola Prime firm. Has anyone tried trading with this firm and received a payout?
