I’ve made $100,000s trading

But I’m nowhere near done

Here’s how I plan to make millions and build real wealth from trading (and how you can too): As I’ve stated before, I’ve made just over $350k from prop firm payouts in the last year and a half

I was an unprofitable trader for around 4 years before this

I’m not ‘mega wealthy’ from trading or anything, but I do make a decent amount of consistent money with it

Here’s a roadmap of how you can build real wealth from trading (or at least how I plan to):

I’ve generated $350k+ from prop firms

And this is WITHOUT failing and buying new challenges every week

Here’s the Risk Management strategy that lets me make $10,000s every month from prop firms: Here’s how I’d manage risk and pass prop firm challenges depending on my financial situation 👇

I’ve generated $350k+ from prop firms

And I’ve never had a problem with getting a payout

Here’s how I avoid scam firms and get paid every single time: Before people say “of course you don’t have problems Tom, you have influencer privilege”

Yes, influencer privilege is definitely a real thing

But I’ve only been posting actively on X for the last month, before that I had 1k followers and no prop firm owners knew me

So for 95% of the money I’ve been paid out I wasn’t an ‘influencer’ or anything like that

Had to get that out of the way, no here’s how to avoid issues with prop firms…

It took me 4 years to get my first prop firm payout

Since then I’ve been able to generate $20-50k/month from them consistently

Here’s what I’d do if I had to start trading again to become profitable 10x faster: 1. Test multiple strategies

I don’t agree with people saying “choose one strategy and stick to it”

You should do that eventually - but first you need to find a strategy that actually suits your personality

You might be better suited to swing trading compared to scalping

Or you might understand ICT more than support and resistance

So you should try multiple strategies first to see what suits you

Give yourself 3-6 months to test different strategies - give each strategy 2 weeks. You’re not trying to build a crazy profitable system yet, just seeing what actually works and makes sense to you as an individual

I’ve made £250k+ from trading prop firms

Most people have no idea how to scale their prop firm capital

Here’s how you do it: 1. Get max funded with one firm at a time

This is what I did, and I recommend it to everyone

I don’t recommend just buying one $100k account from a bunch of different firms

A lot of people do this to diversify their risk (e.g. in case one prop firm rejects payouts)

But if you just go with reputable prop firms you won’t have to worry about it

The main reason I do this is because I don’t want to be trading a bunch of small accounts - I’d prefer to trade 3-5 large accounts ($300-400k+)

This is because a lot of prop firms don’t allow copy trading (which you’ll need if you’re trading on a bunch of accounts) and because it’s just easier to manage overall

I was a breakeven trader for almost 2 years

Then a few small tweaks in my process led me to consistent $10-20k prop firm payouts

Here’s what I changed: 1. I stopped forcing daily setups

This was holding me back so much

I was so motivated when I started trading - that every time I wasn’t in a trade I felt as if I was being lazy / wasn’t working as hard as I should be

This couldn’t have been further from the truth

Profitable traders don’t care about being ‘busy’, they care about making money

When I stopped forcing setups and only traded when my setup was there (even if that meant not trading for 2 weeks), THAT is when I started becoming profitable

I spent 4 years trading unsuccessfully

Now in the last 2 years, I’ve done £250k+ in payouts

Here are the biggest mistakes I made that were holding me back from achieving this sooner (learn from me): 1. Strategy hopping

Every time I had a losing streak, I’d convince myself the strategy was broken

So I’d go and chase the next shiny new trading system

This went on for over a year and in that time I literally made 0 progress

Only when I locked in on 1 strategy and committed to it fully did I start to see any sort of results
