So I found Kyle's course in April of last year. After going through most of the course I started trading on a demo account I had been using for FOREX. Here is my first trade: 2025-04-22 10:57:52 1,561,596.59 1,551,846.59 −9,750.00USD Close short position for symbol CME_MINI:ES1! at price 5294.00 for 10 units. Position AVG Price was 5274.500000, currency: USD, rate: 1.000000, point value: 50.000000 I've continued to review the course material (somewhat inconsistently) and to trade the demo since starting the course. Here was my trade from today: 2026-02-05 11:51:26 14,291,159.09 15,948,659.09 +1,657,500.00USD Close long position for symbol CME_MINI:ES1! at price 6852.50 for 900 units. Position AVG Price was 6815.666667, currency: USD, rate: 1.000000, point value: 50.000000 So I've taken that account from about $1.5M to almost $16M in less than ten months. I'm sure I've traded larger positions than I will need to earn funded accounts, but I'm feeling really good about how I'm seeing the charts and taking entries and getting out. I feel like I'm ready to take a stab at getting funded. Just wanted to get some thoughts from people who have gotten funded on how different it was trading your own demo account, that only you see, to trading with the prop firm looking over your shoulder. Thank you Kyle for all the training. Cheers everyone, Haven
