Level Up: Making Trading Your Own Thing
Hey all! I hope everyone's having a great week! I recently had my monthly session with one of my Boardroom Accountability Pod. Albeit, a small group, I thought it was a fantastic session, and a lot more traders could benefit from the knowledge drop! We discussed individual trading strategies, particularly emphasizing independence and self-reliance over blindly copying strategies. We covered issues around fear and risk management, highlighted the importance of appropriate risk-reward (RR) ratios, and discussed various technical setups. We also addressed challenges with managing emotions in trading, particularly the fear of losing, and suggested methods to overcome this through structured strategies and backtesting. You can find the recording below: https://us06web.zoom.us/rec/play/avqqMDbfXM2CsvCLRkvmixd-_brF3r2TrJvuEf-dog0MEo5G049xb6iCAS03BBluxuvsO8R3JXQjxV1i.hcHSqhGICMyPiYdG Recently, I've seen a lot more comments about how Apex sucks, they don't pay out, they're a scam and fraud, they "owe us money", etc. If you've sat in one of my Sessions or watched the recordings, you would know that I am a huge proponent of Apex. This is due to my experience with them for the past 2+ years. You also would know that I go over very detailed steps on how to ensure your payout requests get approved. This includes getting your P&L Balance to an amount where taking the max payout will not nuke the account. I don't have a habit of sharing the numerous payouts I've received from Apex, but I'm going to share this one to show you all that Apex DOES pay out skilled and disciplined traders who FOLLOW APEX'S RULES! Per my strategy, I got a few of my 50K PA accounts to a balance of $54631.41. I always follow this self rule because it allows me to take the max 50K account payout, and still have my original $2500 drawdown to rinse and repeat. I submitted the payout request yesterday, and it got approved today.
