Unrelated question: Does ICT still trade on the World Cup? I like your videos, by the way. Michael brought me to your channel. Hands down, you're consistently profitable. 🔥

[@Hiptoys]

Hi Matt, thanks for this great Video. Do you trade the Tradovate Plan or the Rithmic Plan? Thank you.

[@borntodoit8744]

Strategy : - Apex accounts need to keep equity & balance close to each other to avoid violation by drawdown Tip: keep closing trade quickly eg at max of equity credit then next trade do again - Trailing Drawdown rule is equity trailing balance DD Violation : when equity reverses back over equity high - target RRR 1:2 - looking for scalping ideas eg 10point trend movement so SL=5pt, TP=10pt

[@floraniyigena7]

Hey Matt, do you have any videos on how you copytrade with all your other accounts? what platform do you use ? Thanks in-advance for your reply.

[@curtaandrei2594]

Hi Matt, do you use Tradovate or Rithmic?

[@camonyoutube]

I've watched this 3 times Matt, this is what we the people needed to see. Phenomenal content, sir!

[@PropFirmPath]

Excellent video! It's so good that you didn't just pass them easily, showing that it is a struggle and isn't easy. Well done for keeping a cool head and not allowing some of those to tilt you.

[@whynow4306]

This video is exact rollecoster that I did yesterday to pass my 50k eval. Took me 30 min 4-5 scalp trades, with 1 loser.

[@whynow4306]

​@@level2344Hello man. Yes you pay comission but from your credit card. You "pay" it from your evaluation balance. Commissions are 2$ per side for 1 NQ mini. Or 1$ per side for 1NQ micro.

[@whynow4306]

​@@Heliox98YTHello. No it doesnt. You get completely new account. And you have to reach again the profit target. And then whatever you make above that profit target you can withdraw (if you dont break rules etc). So realistically you buy 50k eval for 40 $, you pass it by reaching 3k target. Then you get funded acccount (that you pay 85 $ monthly or like 140$ lifetime), you reach target 3k again. And then if you make another 1 000$ or whatever. You can withdraw

am a trader but new to youtube. Help me reach 100 subs guys also i do live trades everyday where i show you my strategy, how i backtest and profits or losses for the day. my channel is craze254 thanks

[@itskeko503]

The crazy part is, if you were to trade the Funded accounts this exact same way. Your probably extract 1 Mil from apex by now. So care free. Relaxed. Accepting smaller losses. It’s crazy how much better a trader is, when the mind is in a carefree state of mind.

[@olivierrun8364]

He did it middle the month of May, lost 90k in one day (4 contracts on each account, if i'm correct) and shared it on X. And i think he did it again when he blew up his accounts (more than 150k if i'm correct too) recently. It's a good strategy for evals (your risk is 30$ * 20 accounts), not when you're funded with a good cuffin. Always think money management, no matter if you are in PA or funded account.

[@Mliw90]

But dang 85.00 × 20 = 1700 a month just to go to funded that's a lot of cash and then you have to get to 2100 to start drawing money out some can afford that but alot of us can't

MATT!!!! Man, world of thanks to you!!! I have been following you and this video was on point!! In part to you, I passed my first ever eval this morning!! Wick Test applied and was looking for you today to share my good news. Thanks again for all you do! Have a great weekend, I know I will now!!!

[@andrewjung1112]

Great video. The short was an interesting choice considering opportunity cost, but the way you managed the trade was great. Good stuff, as always, Matt.

[@tonyschrementi9955]

He was getting close to the drawdown and remained calm and unflappable. Then proceeded to take care of business and reach the funding target. Impressive!

[@darrenwooding5871]

That’s been a very helpful video, I’m so focused on the 5m I miss so many cheap set ups, thanks 👍

[@KennethGman]

Shorting in to strength at that position worked out perfectly. I think you got super lucky. All other traders I know would have gone long at the pullback for 30 pip gain

base hits has really made my evaluations go soo much faster. Before i was going for home runs and looking for the full move of the day. Which works and i passed evals before but takes much longer than small profits throughout the day

[@letstryit6248]

Hey Matt! I’ve been trading ICT concepts for the last 4 years and have seen intermittent consistency (mostly me screwing myself up trying to hit home runs). I finally decided to check your content out and I love how you just go for base hits. I have instituted this into my trading and I passed an additional evaluation this morning in a single day only taking base hits. Anyway, I appreciate you and your content. I like your wick test, especially when used with some ICT concepts about where the market is likely headed.

[@YusufEbr]

I don't think you screwing yourself. I think his shits overcomplicated. Not saying it doesn't work. It's just alot going on and he just keeps adding to it. I'm moving out of it. Check out CammyCapital as well.

[@YusufEbr]

Man's only appeared on Korbs podcast. Another futures trader who uses Level 2 data. Man watches this trader right here. Man also had a footprint chart on his charts and says there's methods he can't teach people only his kids coz his handed enough out lol his also tiring as hell. Leave the cult. ICTs stuff is random as hell. Sometimes it works and there way too much content to worry about. Check out Cammy Capital too.

You do realize that you can close the trade down even if it is 1 or 2 ticks away from your fill level. Its the X button in the trade box, so if it turns against you when price is that close just close it down yourself and bank the profit.
