Preparing for a prop firm

[fapeiyeunesou]

I’ve been thinking about taking a prop firm challenge this year. I’ve been practicing for a while now, and my results are okay, but I still feel like I’m not fully ready to deal with the challenge conditions — like strict drawdown limits and hitting profit targets under pressure. I don’t want to just “try and see” — I want to actually go in prepared. Are there any tools or methods that helped you guys simulate that kind of environment? Something more than just a demo account?

Yeah, I’ve taken a few of those challenges and learned a lot from both passing and failing them. What helped me the most was practicing with tools that simulate real conditions — not just normal demo trading. There’s a solid breakdown over on https://forextester.com/en/pass-prop-firm-challenge/ that lists tools and strategies specifically for challenge prep. I used one of the simulators mentioned there, and it helped me track risk and trade like I was already under those strict rules. Practicing with structure made a huge difference when it came to controlling emotions during the actual challenge.

Just saw this thread while browsing — interesting to see how many people are going the prop firm route now. I’ve never done one myself, but I’ve heard it’s a great way to get capital if you’ve got the discipline. Cool to see people sharing resources and actual prep tips instead of just talking about profits.

“When I stopped my dissertation one of the first things I started teaching myself about was link furniture. We were playing a gig link in Brazil and a friend of mine took me around vintage furniture stores in Brazil and introduced me to Brazilian design and architecture. And I knew a little bit, but I didn’t know link much and that’s when I really started nerding out. It became a passion and a thing I collect. And this sofa became a sort of holy grail for me.”
