What a genuine guy! Fully committed himself to forex and is finally reaping the rewards. Let's not understate how hard it must have been for him to quit college in his FINAL semester to pursue trading. A legend in the making, pushing away all the douters and nay sayers. We need to support people like this all the way. Well done Alex, keep going my man! Never forgot, you are awesome 🙌
im so happy i came across this video, i also trade the london breakout and have been seeing good results in my demo. Now im working towards opening a real account so i can grow it to an amount where i can pay for the ftmo challenge. thank you so much for this video. And for all the traders reading this, just know there is light at the end of the tunnel. Just DONT GIVE UP!!!!!! God bless you all in your trading journey's.
I like the interviewer as he is always very decent, customer focussed, not overly pushy or irritating and quite friendly and outgoing. Really great work, FTMO 👍
I love so much how people can be open & honest now about not having to “technically”blow an account to become an FTMO trader. If you have the skill & mindset, that’s all that’ll matter at the end of the day.💯Last yr or 2 yrs ago, if someone said that, they’d get so much hate, so I love the turn around and how ppl can now see the possibilities. Not everyone has to take the same route to success💯
I love this video. 18 months in my journey and doing the same thing. I trade GJ only with the aim of getting to know her and master her. In trade in the same simple way too, key levels and price action. He has a cute smile too. Great advice, "Don't stop!".
This guy is my age and I can kinda relate to him. Trading is a process and I’m still in that process it’s definitely not easy, I’m not successful yet but damn I’m not quitting either.
Very interesting. Congratulations. I loved the last words. I had stopped for about 6 months because I was losing a lot and now I can more disciplined and I will do my best to be a good trader in the coming years. I WILL NOT STOP AGAIN AND WILL KEEP IT UP
Alex, your great effort and persistence is evident, make you want to finish the last semester of the U, in life you have to have plan a, plan b, etc, it will surely serve you for something in the future, I congratulate you and I wish you many successes!
I actually disagree. When you are really really and I mean really hungry and focused on succeeding there will never be a plan B, you physically are not able to imagine a scenario where it doesn't work so no don't listen to anyone ever telling you about having a plan B.
@@surek5753 Yohhhh, yes I'm still here, I will never give up, I actually passed and have a FTMO acc, I'm in the process now of trying to atain max allocation. I will say it has been hard trying to get on a interview🤣🤣🤣I will still do it that much I know
I had the same problem with going out too fast, then I just moved the SL a little bit higher (let's say if I reached 3%, I moved it to 2% and then I was more relaxed and wait a little longer). And sometimes you can earn a lot when keep adjusting your SL because if you are on a strong trend, the price will chill before it returns (i don't know if all pairs are behaving like this), so if it just bounces at one point, it's a possibility that he reached his limit, so it's a chance to exit at a better time.
I feel so close to the consistency.. I will be 100k funded before the year end. I am still in uni doing engineering...a bit hard to balance at the moment.
@@MOZUKartel let's get it... I actually dropped out of medical school last year as I couldn't cope with doing a lot clinical sessions. I actually didn't love it if I am in being honest.. In engineering, trading and engineering they serve me well... I love it here...
Very interesting to see, how similar the mindset of all traders are. The point, that we wanted to trade, and its very hard to wait for your trading session. You really must do something to keep yourself busy.
I read alot of comments talking about he should go back to uni to ensure he has a backup plan. When you are really really and I mean really hungry and focused on succeeding there will never be a plan B, you physically are not able to imagine a scenario where it doesn't work so no don't listen to anyone ever telling you about having a plan B. People who talk about a plan B have not have that all or nothing experience. NEVER leave room in your mind for failure.
Man his story is so close to mine only the strategy wise but also I’ve had a very turbulent journey also kinda like his but honestly my journey was and still is in the process but getting toward the end of the tunnel has quite a bit more suspense I’ll have to cover my story on my RUclips eventually
this kid seems like he's got a really good head on his shoulders. I think he's going to go really far, plus he's so young! he has so much potential! Good luck! What an inspiration! I need someone like this to help me stay accountable for my own trading! And what truth he speaks about envisioning yourself where you want to be. Visualization is so important and so much more effective than most people believe. Repeat your affirmations and your mantras and you will go far. I want to make a RUclips channel. Haha! that's out of left field....really don't know where that came from, but maybe I should do it, I'm shy and there are things I need to get done in my life, but maybe I should really make it a priority... Edit: Weird! I wrote that part of my comment about RUclips before he started talking about posting on social media himself! It's like I'm psychic! Or something.....haha.
“ Envision yourself making it, getting there with so much detail that it feels you have already gotten there. But remember, do it from the enthusiasm, love and joy you feel inside. Not from fear. “ That is the way to thanking God in advance for something you are materializing a little bit every day. Exactly like this guy is doing here. It might seem that it is a little too soon for this guy to have an account this big… or that he is still too emotional and obsessed with wanting to trade all day, but the fact that he is doing it from the bottom of his heart and coming from the excitement of “what his trading career can be” instead of from “what I am going to lose if I don’t make it”, that he will surely get away with it, keeping his account for a long time : ) Never try to believe in yourself from fear. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF FROM THE JOY YOU FIND IN THE BOTTOM OF YOUR HEART. Cheers everyone.
Very good video. clearly explains his strategy. Very similar to how i'm trading drawing my levels as well although im not a fan of fib lines. I've watched literally dozens of interviews with traders on YT but most don't explain that clearly what they are doing. This is exactly how i expect a trading video to be. yeah always stick to the plan is alike a golden rule for me also no matter what.
Man I average about 5% monthly ,but in the challenge you got to risk more, that’s why it’s called a challenge,when I was up 4% on the account I risked 2% and that’s how I was able to pass.
@@giorgosxristopoulos3631 Risking 2-3℅ per trade is not problem for me because my winrate is 85℅ with deviation of around 5℅.What causes problem for me in this challenge is spread they get widen up 30-100 pips and it usually equate to 1-1.5 R of my position so say if my position is in drawdown of -1.8℅ and spread get widen than this will toch -5℅ mark easily and it causes problem for me. Spread are the villian in my story.
Hi Mike Martin, During the FTMO Challenge and Verification, you can keep your position open overnight and over the weekend as well. However, once you become an FTMO Trader and manage an FTMO Account, we require you to close your positions just before the markets close for the weekend or if the rollover (market break) is longer than 2 hours. Our FTMO Traders having the FTMO Account must respect the market timings. Every asset class and its respective instruments might have different trading hours that have to be adhered to. If you would like to learn more you can visit our FAQ page ftmo.com/en/faq/do-i-need-to-close-my-positions-overnight/ or the Symbols site ftmo.com/en/symbols-trading-updates/ Thank you for your question, and do not hesitate to contact us again.
@@FTMOcom if someone finally get funded,,, what is the profit process,, is the payout according to how much you make per month or its kind of fix or a specific amount for a specific account type ?… ( if for instance i have a 10k funded ftmo account,, and the month is already ending, if am up with a 20% profit,, how much would be my payout for that month??!)
If u can’t manage a 100$ acct then forget paying a funded one. If u know what ur doing after trying their free trial to see what their conditions of trading is like n u understand all their rules get a 200k n pass it
yea its possible to do that but you need a REALLY firm understanding of your strategy and its success rate. Id suggest getting at least a 50k account. Maybe save up some money till you can afford it while in the meantime practice and refine your skills with the FTMO free trials. Trust me it helps a lot and I wish i knew about FTMO when i had just started trading.
I will like know More about the daily max loss, if I gain $500 on my $10000 account making $10500and I lose the $500 plus $400 of the starting balance on the next day making my balance be at $ 9600..did I violate the daily max loss or not?
Hi Besten channel, It very much depends if it was a floating loss. If at the moment you had a loss of more than 5%, you violated our Trading Objective of Max Daily Loss.

watched many traders interview but from interview get me a separate vibe ,i we need more interviews please
Couldn’t agree more on the risk spread across multiply pairs, single pair is a single risk profile for your trading plan .
Bro has been my favourite so far
I'm inspired by this lad 💯💯💯💯 from 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 thanks young man
am at this kind of stage in college and hoping to get there man... i literally trade like alex... nice interview right here

Please FTMO introduce either 6 month or 12 month challenge. It will be really helpful for us who make 3-5℅ in a month
they make no money from that.

@FTMO, is there a way to connect with Alex?
minute 52:16 is priceless. it's best advice i come back to it very much🤣😂
For FTMO we can trade at night? So we dont have to trade during the day. Also can I do FTMO part time while i have a full time job?
Hey I have a different question; what broker to pick in charts on tradingview wich is best in line with PA of FTMO (broker)?
Just open a trial account with ftmo and trade on MT4 that’s the closest you’ll be to testing their platform
Which pairs have good spreads on FTMO
just do not stop, 🔥
the stat part was gold you guys should learn from it no journal tools do that you can make the journal special like that
very very good interview. great info.
just met one of your buddies in maryland at the gym i was talking to him about me trading
Hey guys, is there a community where we can exchange between traders ? It’s good sometimes to be able to talk to people in the same business field…
Yessirrrrr!!!!🐐🐐🐐
Great interview
He trades without using orderblocks which would've given him multiple entries! But I enjoyed his analysis.
