I've been trading for 8 years.
Here's a bunch of controversial trading beliefs I have.
(Don't read if you're sensitive).

The only thing that makes you a better trader is live trading.
The only thing that builds real confidence is live trading.

BACKTEST.
BACKTEST.

Every day.
Until your edge feels boring.
Becomes Unshakeable.
Feels Automatic.
That’s how to build confidence.

A challenge is a waste of money if it has:
❌ Consistency rules
❌ 2% daily profit cap
❌ Trailing drawdown
It's just a fact.

If prop firms stopped running discounts, they could get rid of all the rules traders hate.
Literally overnight.
It really is that simple.

The FTMO hate is funny because they’re the only prop firm that just doesn’t respond or comment.
They’re just like “Yeah we’re massive and have been here forever, some hate comments don’t bother us”
Good move or bad to let the rumours spread?

Golf and trading have a lot in common.
You can spend a ton of time and money on both and actually get worse.

Somebody said we have hidden rules at Lark.
So I offered to pay him $1,000 if he could find a single one.
Never heard back.
Funny how that works.

Four years ago we started this firm with one idea.
Have the best rules in the industry.
In 2022, that meant no time limits.
Today?
That means:
❌ No consistency rules
❌ No news restrictions
❌ No 3% max drawdown
We've been doing it for 4 years.
Still here. Still paying on time. Always.
For our anniversary, we're doing the most aggressive promo we've ever run.
Buy one $100K account. Get $300K in total challenges.
Buy 1. Get 4. 🔥

If you’re making $10,000 a day from trading, are you really going to be selling a $100 course on Instagram?

You used to be able to make money with prop firms.
Now there’s 2% daily profit caps.

This is the best prop firm promo in the world right now.
- Buy a 100K 1-Step or 3-Step evaluation
- Get two free 50K accounts
- Earn a payout on the 100K and we send you another free 100K challenge
Four years. Four accounts.

Sub $60K bitcoin is crazy.
I sold a good portion at $102K to buy a house. Super blessed with the timing.
Blessed for this buying opportunity too, though.

I get some hate for calling this out.
But that’s okay.
It’s only the traders who aren’t impacted that are salty I said this.
And you know what sucks more than a couple of hate comments?
A firm closing down every 2-3 months and traders wasting time and money.

I’m absolutely shocked.
A prop firm selling $100K challenges for $99 and offering 50% discounts to new users is shutting down?
Nobody could have ever predicted this.

Let me show you the math on this real quick.
You spend the price of a $100K challenge.
You walk away with $100K funded, plus two $50Ks. That's $200K before you even trade 🤝
Hit a payout on any of those? Another $100K lands in your account at zero cost.
$300K total. We did the math so you don't have to.

I'm no expert.
But I did buy my first house at 24 thanks to buying Bitcoin at $35,000.
And it's starting to look real nice at $66,000.

Prediction market prop firms are popping up.
Pretty cool but the rules are crazy restrictive (for now).
What do you think?
The next big thing in the prop firm world?
