IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT TRYING OUT @VestExchange ⚠️ READ THIS BEFORE ⚠️
If you hate prop firm rules, Vest is probably one of the best fits for you.
Why:
• No funded consistency
• No winning days
• No payout buffer
• No max payout cap
• Flexible withdrawals
• News trading allowed
• Weekend holds
• Up to 95% split
• Customizable accounts
But a few things you should know before trying it:
Perps can have more slippage
= Give your SL some extra room.
Don’t scalp tiny moves = I’d rather aim for 20-50+ points so fees/slippage matter less.
Chart normal NQ / ES
= Do your analysis there, then execute on the perp.
Start smaller than you think
= Perps can move differently, so don’t oversize immediately.
Start small, take payouts, scale later
I’ve already received payouts from Vest myself.
**The risk photo is with 50x leverage**

If you're trading futures prop firms and STILL haven't tried @TradingLucid, what are you even doing? 😭
They literally have an account for every type of trader.
1. AGGRESSIVE TRADERS
LucidFlex / LucidDaily
• Pass in just 2 days
• No funded consistency
• With or without DLL
2. BASE HIT TRADERS
LucidPro
• 1-day evaluation pass
• 40% funded consistency
• Scaling payout caps
• With or without DLL
3. EVALUATION HATERS
LucidDirect
• NO evaluation phase
• 20% funded consistency
• Scaling payout caps
Whether you're hunting 5R trades, stacking base hits, or just want to skip evaluations entirely, there's a plan for your trading style.
Which one are you choosing? 👀
V-Shape of The Day 🎯
This was setup of the day
Not the most clean, and it also makes sense to fade this, but here's why I think it was good:
HTF Narrative: Neutral on the day, but expecting HTF manipulation above, before we could continue lower (ideally ES to tap the daily FVG).
Accumulation prior to 9:30 open, manipulation lower, rejecting HTF PDA's, and then a v-shape forms.
Clean low resistance liquidity above (even tho ES had smt'd it all), and some swings high as target.
Not a setup I would risk everything on, but definitely one of the better today

A lot of traders are scared to trade the 9:30 open.
But if the HTF PO3 has already manipulated, you should not be afraid of it.
Because at that point, 9:30 is often ready to distribute.
That’s the key most traders miss:
HTF narrative > LTF narrative
If higher timeframe delivery is already clear, you don’t need to overcomplicate the lower timeframe.
In this example:
- HTF had already shown the manipulation
- Price delivered into the area I wanted
- 9:30 simply became the distribution point
- LTF just gave the entry confirmation
A lot of traders treat every 9:30 open like it has to do major manipulation first.
That’s not always true.
Sometimes the manipulation already happened on the HTF, and 9:30 is just where the real move starts.
Stop giving the LTF more importance than it deserves.
Read the higher timeframe first.
Then use the lower timeframe to execute.
That’s why I always say:
HTF narrative creates the opportunity.
LTF narrative just gives the trigger.

Prop firm math is actually ridiculous 😂
@breakoutprop's $50K 1-Step Pro account costs just $266 with the code "FRED"
Spend $266,000 and you get:
1,000 evaluations.
Now imagine just 100 of those accounts eventually reach ONE $5,000 payout each:
$500,000 gross payouts.
$400,000 after the 80% split.
$266,000 spent.
+$134,000 NET PROFIT.
That's a 50.4% return on your evaluation costs.
And that's assuming the other 900 accounts NEVER pay out.
Now imagine getting multiple payouts from the same funded account 💀
Obviously, this is a hypothetical scenario. Passing evaluations, surviving drawdown, and reaching payouts are far from guaranteed. These numbers also exclude trading fees.
But the theoretical upside is actually ridiculous 😭
And it's not financial advice, do not try this at home ⚠️
