Pratica di Shadowing: Asking the TOP 5 Prop Firm Traders How to PASS - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Creazione lezione...
1
Have you ever wondered what the top prop firm traders do to get to where they're at?
2
Worry not, because today we are not only going to talk with one, two, we are actually going to talk with five of the top prop firm traders out there.
3
These traders together have made over four million dollars in payouts with prop firms, so they know what they are talking about.
4
And today I'm going to get them all to join me and I'm going to ask, what is your biggest tip to pass a prop firm challenge is
5
because that is step one of getting funded and
6
if this video gets to 4 000 likes then i'll make
7
sure to make a part two where i'm going to ask
8
these traders with over four million dollars in payouts what their biggest tip to reach a payout is
9
so let's get this directly started
10
and let's start with kyle jade cap he has profited over
11
1 .2 million dollars with prop firms he's currently starting a youtube channel again
12
so make sure to subscribe there's going to be a link in the description
13
and he made a whole twitter thread on how he profited already over 1 .2 million dollars with prop firms and
14
so kyle is one of the top traders the number one
15
with more payouts is actually here in this video too
16
so let's jump on a call and ask him what his biggest tip is okay
17
so we're here with kyle
18
and i just want to ask straight up what is your biggest tip for passing a prop firm challenge yeah
19
so in my opinion
20
when you're trying to pass a prop from challenge let's say without failing one is
21
when you are at your initial balance depending on
22
if you get a win or a loss
23
that next trade is going to determine what your next risk is
24
so the deeper you go in a drawdown the easier it
25
is to smooth out your equity curve by reducing your risk
26
so let's say on phase one if you want to start out one
27
or two percent risk if you lose you cut the risk in half
28
if you win you can possibly keep the risk the same
29
or double the risk
30
so approach the challenge as where am i in relation to my starting balance
31
and you know based on those next series of trades
32
or next trade you're gonna adjust your risk accordingly
33
and that's gonna help you stay alive in the challenge long
34
enough for you to be able to find those A plus setups and then pass the challenge eventually.
35
Okay thank you and just for people to know what was your total payout amount?
36
Yeah so after I get paid from SFT it's gonna be a little over 1 .2 million.
37
Yeah that's amazing that's amazing.
38
Next up we have Paladin one of the co -founders of SFT, Skilled Funded Traders.
39
But before founding SFT, he actually made over $400 ,000 in payouts.
40
And so let's jump on a call and ask Paladin what his biggest tip is.
41
Directly straight to the point, Paladin, what is your number one tip for traders that want to pass a prop firm challenge?
42
My number one tip would actually be the people who you look up to in this industry, right?
43
Do not copy how they approach their challenges.
44
How you approach a challenge it all depends on your circumstances these people you look up to they probably have
45
so many funded accounts where they'll do a challenge risk two
46
three percent whereas you you're using your entire paycheck to do a challenge right
47
so for that reason you have to go very conservative you have to go a little maybe one percent
48
or zero point five percent risk something that doesn't make you emotional right
49
so my number one tip
50
when approaching these challenges is do not look at the people above you
51
but look at where you are your circumstances
52
and then determine how you want to approach this challenge yeah that's sick
53
so money management inside of the problems
54
and outside that's that's actually a really good tip paladin how
55
many payouts have you done thus far in total the last i saw was last month
56
which was a little over 400k
57
but this year in 2024 i've already withdrawn about 15 000
58
and we're only four weeks in that's great that's it with eu ranging
59
next up we have andrew nfx andrew has currently six million dollars of assets under management
60
and he has been banned basically from all of the firms out there
61
and now you ask yourselves why
62
because he uses a similar strategy to me of risking four percent
63
and trying to pass in one maximum two trades
64
or blow the account
65
but he does it on a way bigger scale that's why
66
he has six million dollars of assets in the management
67
and that's why he's profited almost or already let's ask him on the call
68
if he has already close to one million dollars in prop from payouts
69
so that's going to be interesting to hear let's get into it andrew what is your biggest takeaway for people
70
that want to pass a challenge what helped me become a
71
six million dollar funded trader was just going very aggressive with
72
challenges i know a lot of people call it gambling but
73
if you play it very smart
74
so let's say you have one thousand dollars to buy an account most people just buy one challenge
75
and then they blow it right just buy four accounts
76
and go risk daily drawdown basically on a high probability setup
77
so don't just gamble away risk four percent on a setup
78
that maybe it's your a plus setup
79
and you go for a one to two
80
if that's your usual risk reward you pass it
81
and then you need one more win basically one to one on phase two you can lower the risk
82
so usually what i did was 4 .5 risk uh phase one
83
and then phase two i would go like two percent risk
84
or 2 .5 just so it gives me more trades
85
but that's why i managed to reach six million dollars funding also
86
because i have a very high win rate
87
and you know i went for multiple accounts not just one account okay that's fair
88
and have you reached one million dollars in payout yet not yet
89
but i will calculate everything i will do a post about it
90
but i think i'm very very close i'll probably hit it
91
within a few months for sure next up we have dan chung not only a great mentor of mine
92
but also a great friend of mine this man i don't understand
93
but he constantly is posting on twitter like 10k day like fucking 5k loss
94
and i'm like bro well how do you get
95
so many setups he got funded with over 1 million dollars just in one month
96
and he's constantly getting payouts from prop firms
97
which you can check in his youtube channel or his twitter
98
which both are going to be linked in the scripture
99
so let's jump on a call with dan and ask him what his number one tip is.
100
Being straight to the point, Dan, what is your number one tip to pass a prop firm challenge?
101
Number one tip is two things.
102
Number one is proof of concept and confidence.
103
Proof of concept is ultimately understanding that the strategy that you have, the edge that you have actually works, right?
104
Like that's so important.
105
You can't go and trade your account with actually the proof of concept.
106
So that comes with back testing, sample testing, understanding your psychology, understanding yourself and understanding that the whole thing will pan itself out over a period of time
107
because if you don't have any of
108
that no matter what you do it won't work right because
109
if you don't have a profitable strategy you can get lucky you can get lucky once
110
and this is actually one of the worst things
111
that can happen to trading is to taste the success by getting lucky trading a strategy
112
that doesn't even work but you just got lucky with those wins got a payout
113
and you think it works
114
and then you spend the next five years doing the same shit
115
and not getting results because you don't actually have the proof of concept
116
so the proof of concept is key over a period of
117
time that's number one then number two is confidence confidence is actually understanding with an unwavering mindset
118
that the work that i put in the proof of concepts
119
and all that work i put in works and
120
that i have to stick to that because it's simple everyone who's watching this
121
or anyone who's trading for a period of time has gone
122
through a losing streak guess what happens in your losing streak
123
your confidence goes what happens in drawdown your confidence goes
124
but the question is okay let's take a step back why like why is your confidence wavering just
125
because there's a negative balance on that just because you've lost a trade
126
but isn't that supposed to be part of the process isn't
127
that actually part of the proof of concept haven't you gone through your back testing
128
and your sample testing and understood that okay cool i can actually have a six
129
or eight trading period losses
130
that i just have to draw about the risk as soon as i've had four
131
or more right so then if i have four losses i know
132
that if i do go into this period i'm going to dynamic risk
133
and take risk off of the table and drop it down
134
so that if i do go into or
135
if i do go further into drawdown the damage is minimum
136
and then when i call back up and
137
when i'm in break even then i can put the wrist back on
138
and size it back up
139
so it's incredibly important to have these two things number one the proof of concept understanding
140
that the edge works over a period of time
141
that your strategy works you've got a team and you've got people
142
and you're developing it and you've seen the proof of it
143
and then how number two is the confidence to understand that you will be successful and you will fucking win.
144
Absolutely love that.
145
And then just for reference for the people that are watching, how much in payouts have you done?
146
Probably like 250K, something like that.
147
And then I think now actually in my total career of trading, I've done 750K or 740K.
148
So this year I'll break a whole million in total in terms of my actual profits from the markets.
149
And this year I'm going to try and hit half a million on payouts.
150
Absolutely love that last
151
but not least we have the number one prop firm trader
152
in terms of payouts he has also been banned basically from a lot of firms
153
because what he does is way too risky for firms
154
and he has made over two million dollars with prop firm
155
and yes we are talking payouts
156
so right now pasquale is number one trader with all of these prop firms in terms of payouts
157
and so let's ask him what his number one tip is okay
158
so right now we are with pasquale the number one trader with pop firms
159
which has racked up over two million dollars in payouts is it two million two
160
and a half a bit
161
so what is your number one advice for traders to pass
162
pop from challenges i think the the first thing is a
163
question do you actually know what's going on do you know
164
the rules do you know the trading style do you know
165
what does it take to take this challenge you don't have
166
to have like a super set up plan trading plan
167
because anything can work if you want to do pure technical it will work
168
if you want to do like discretionary
169
if it will work anything can work in trading i think
170
most traders have no patience they want to pass a challenge in a day
171
or two which is possible
172
but it's not the right way to do it you have
173
to realize it's more of a career choice you have to treat it as
174
if you will do this for next two three five years
175
and not get rich quick scheme because it's it's not working
176
so patience is a big thing take it slowly
177
if it takes you 30 days a month two months a half a year it doesn't really matter
178
because in the end there's a funded account and there's actual money behind
179
and a big big opportunity for you because of of that
180
because they want to pass quickly a lot of people over leverage
181
and put up way too large positions try to to max send it on a 20 lot 30 lots
182
and try to pass it in one trade
183
but what are the chances there are no shortcuts in this business
184
and that's coming back to the having a plan you know not to throw money
185
and throw a trade in
186
and hope for the best i really like to take a
187
step back it also helps you with the mental game
188
because this is a big part of trading keep mentally stable through everything and
189
if you take the one hour chart four hour chart daily
190
chart the movements are way slower you have time for yourself
191
and i think that's a good approach like to take it slowly the final point i'd say is stay disciplined
192
because discipline is probably the most important for everybody
193
because you can't get caught up in form
194
or greed fear it's just doesn't work it's the common mistake
195
that 99 of all traders have you have to stay calm under pressure whether it's drawdown
196
or winnings yeah yeah that is your number one skill
197
when you're running like 1 million
198
and you're like oh let this run to 1 .2 you get no emotion on running profits
199
or running drawdown because again comes down to confidence too
200
which is very very important this is basically it a video packed full of information
201
and don't forget
202
if this video gets to 4 000 likes then i will
203
make sure to do a part two where i ask all of these traders again
204
that have made over four million dollars in payouts what their number one tip to get a payout is
205
so i hope you guys enjoyed make sure to leave a comment with your favorite takeaways of this video
206

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
