Introduction

Hey everyone, Sam here!! 👋

I’ve been quietly hanging around here for the past week or two, soaking in the vibes, learning from the convos. Figured it’s about time I introduce myself.

I’ve been trading funded prop accounts for around 3 years now — it’s been a mix of small wins, harsh lessons, and a whole lot of screen time. I’m still not profitable, but I’ve been taking this seriously for a long time and I’m committed to making it work.

I’ve gone deep into the DTFX system and I understand the structure side of it pretty well by now — it’s not the strategy that holds me back. My real battle is the mental side: sticking to plans, handling red days, overtrading and not letting emotions take the wheel. That’s where I’ve been putting my energy lately.

Been watching Bull’s livestreams for quite a while too — the way he reads price is amazing. That said, I haven’t watched all of them, so if anyone has a shortlist of must-watch sessions or ones that helped you level up mentally or structurally, I’d love to hear it.

Recently blew my account (again 🫠) — had two amazing green days, but tried to recover a small loss on the third and spiraled. That hit hard, but I’m learning to take it as feedback instead of failure.

Since I don’t live in a first-world country, my goal isn’t wild right now — I’m working toward consistently netting $1–2K per month, just freedom, peace, and control over my time.

Appreciate you all — hope to grow alongside everyone here 🙏
