📊 Why Prop Firms Use Daily Loss Limits

📹 The First 100 Days: Eliminating Your Bad Trading Habits
🧠 Most traders don’t fail because of strategy.
They fail because of habits they don’t even realize they’ve built.
📊 The first 100 days are about:
• Breaking reactive behavior
• Removing emotional execution
• Building consistent decision-making
🎯 Strategy only works when the trader executing it is stable.
❓What’s harder for you: building a strategy… or changing your habits?

Let’s be honest we’ve all been there.
But here’s an interesting data point:
On a challenge with a 10% profit target, when a trader reaches 8% profit, excitement often kicks in.
From that point:
• 46% of traders fail the evaluation
• 54% go on to pass
A reminder that the final stretch is often more psychological than technical.
Interesting insight to reflect on.

One of my favorite weekly trading tendencies:
📊 If price aggressively extends away from Monday's range early in the week...
📈 Thursday and Friday often rotate back into Monday's range.
🧠 Markets rarely move in a straight line. Expansion is often followed by mean reversion before the week closes.
🎯 Keep Monday's high and low on your chart you may be surprised how often the market revisits them.
