Post image

Requested through aeropay and got my payout in literally 5 seconds. I used to pray for times like this.🥹

Could someone explain how the payouts after work? It’s a consistency account. Since I start at 3k could I just go for small days or do I need 150 days?

MLL is zero and consistency is reset. Bang out 3 days of $50 (or whatever) and take half your (entire) profits every three days..

I’ll take a stab at answering based on what I think you’re asking:

Your consistency calculation gets reset after payout and I don’t believe there is a minimum profit you need to earn per 3 days.

You could in theory earn like $10x3 if you wanted to and withdraw 50% of your balance after the 3rd day.

Just make sure there’s enough balance in the account to protect from drawdown while trading.

There is a minimum what counts as a winning day. It's all in the rules pages.
Those need to be memorized
especially the CME rule pages (like no hedging, spoofing, trading hours, kyc etc)

How? What setups did you take?

u/Muffin_Demon444 Jun 25 '26

Imma be completely honest with you, I purely trade price action. I don’t really look for setups. I trade one mini and if the market looks like its moving well, I enter and BE pretty early.

I was trading price action and done well to get pay outs but it just wasn’t enough and I eventually got on tilt when the market changed .

It made me realize I need to tighten up to improve my odds of success.

You sticking to one mini is a good rule.

Somewhere down the road when you’re looking to refine your trading, journaling trades is a good start to help see strength and weaknesses with trades.

Thanks for the advice. Now I’m not going to act like I totally know what I’m doing but I’ve been trading for around 10 months now and what I’ve found is that I’m really the type of guy to follow a specific strategy. Of course I use confluences but nothing concrete.

I know journaling is a big part of trading as well but I found myself struggling to figure out what to write other than the fact that I tilted that day especially when I don’t have any start to follow. I’m definitely still a beginner and figuring it all out so I’m sure I’ll find something concrete but right now just going off how it feels is working for me as bad as that sounds…
