Disliked{quote} I don't know why another person's success rate should matter to you when everything that guarantees either your own success or failure is absolutely dependent on you. I don't know anyone on these forums who's even been trading with them for that long, most seem to have only taken the challenge late last year. But feel free to look on youtube or facebook. I've seen two or 3 traders talk about their 6 months journey and 1 year respectively. Someone else posted a myfxbook link here last year of someone who was profitable for 4 months straight...Ignored
This thread started 3 and a half years with many followers from Forex Factory reading the posts here. So far, I am only aware of Pipmaster77 being the only Forex factory member to stay actually stay alive for at least 6 months as a FTMO trader.
I must say I have traded live with two former members of this thread, and will be trading live with two current members of this thread when I finish this post. So I understand the challenges and mental struggles first hand.
As I see it, the battle is not completing the Challenge and passing verification, the real challenge is staying alive with FTMO when you let your guard down.
So my point is why is it so hard to stay a long time member trading a live account with FTMO.
So we have ONE member in 3.5 years, is there anyone else here I can include in that list.
You can see my angle can't you, the Challenge & verification is not the hard part - over confidence when trading a live account may be the hardest part.
Cheers
