Hi pf, So have to start beginning again. Can they start you pro since your last position with them is pro Regards Jin
The answer is no, have to start from zero like everyone.
Will see how it looks down the road.
The key variable is the Edge score, if I can achieve 90+.
I am not there. Yet.
Happy trading!

Hi All,
I've been thinking for a while to pen my thoughts about Mr. Z's training here. The truth is I couldn't really think of what to say, that could be different from what has already been said by previous members and students. Anyway...
I first contacted Mr. Z on July 4th this year, showing my interest in his mentorship. After a few messages back and forth and some holiday in-between, we started on the 21st of August. I'm not quiet sure exactly when the training finished
, as we speak almost on a daily basis. The transition is a bit hazy because as promised by Mr. Z, he supports his students after the training is done and is always around to trade together, hence still learning from him constantly.
I've been a demo trader for the longest time. I've had a couple of live accounts and as you can probably guess, they didn't last very long
. After a very long time and after Mr. Z's mentorship and continued support, I have recently opened another live account with the kind of confidence that I've not really ever had before. If you have been following this thread for any amount of time, you would guess right that the chances of my account being in the Green are good and I can confirm, that up to today the curve is pointing in the right direction, even got through the first hurdle of being funded . I still have a fair way to go but I'm confident.
Mr. Z's training / mentorship is definitely worth its weight in Gold. I know this may sound cliché but I had thought to my self, this is the last time and effort on my part. If it doesn't work, I'm walking away. Boy am I glad I contacted Mr. Z and lucky enough that he accepted me as his student and took me under his wing. By the way, just because you want to be trained by him, does not mean he will train you. There is an initial, sort of interview which works both ways, to get through and this is for the benefit of both parties.
I hope this benefits anyone reading. If you are in the unfortunate situation, where you are struggling to become profitable, then take my word, speak to Mr. Z and get educated.
I thank you Mr. Z!!, from the bottom of my heart. You are a great teacher and mentor.

hi,
end of 2024.
i havent posted much this year, so why not make a summary of how things are now.
trading was great, overall. all 12 months ended in profit. actually, all trading day has been green, while keeping to my key principle of not holding anything overnight.
the compounded total looks like this:
of course, the full time trading reality is slightly different, as regular withdrawals will lower that 302% figure for actual starting equity vs. end-of-year equity, but i have still managed a very decent growth in that metric too. the drawdown figure i recall is slightly off as the maximum was into double digit, but the best myfxbook can do. this is my main account, i trade normally with a lower risk than other accounts. each has a purpose to do, as they always should.
needless to say, this is better than i anticipated for 2023, and i am very happy for the result. can only hope for a similar year 2024. will see.
AxiSelect was a mixed bag, so far. the changes they made doesnt align very well with my style of trading, and i am a maximalist when it comes to it.
not given up on it, but after the initial glitches in Beta testing and after, i have decided to give it a fresh start to see if things may improve in the score some. bit of a rough patch for the first few trades, early to say if i will see a score improvement or not. worst case scenario, i will have to settle for a 100k funded account, and look at it as a side income stream rather than a major one. not given up on it however, will see what the coming months bring. a work in progress.
mentoring,
probably will continue into next year as well, in a limited basis. if someone is interested could reach me in PM here for details.
the next available slot is mid-Febr 2024.
past students,
in 2024, as before, all former students are welcome to join me for some live trading sessions. the first one will be probably 5th Jan, NFP.
for other times, you can reach me on Skype to ask. the door is always open to join for some trading, but happy to chat with you when i am not busy, too.
i think covered everything!
want to wish everyone a successful, happy new year 2024!
happy trading!

What a great result - who ever said you can't scalp the market and be green every single day is a bloody fool. 302% PLUS is a fantastic result that would leave any wall street trader jealous.
After trading the London session with you and our old gang for 2 years between 2020 to 2022, I can only remember you having 1 Red day and even then - you were the calmness team member in the group that day.
Next year Zoltan - I think you will bloody destroy the market
Have a great New Year Mate.

I said that often when I survived being in the room for all of a couple weeks calling trades before I took them as an opening scalp off the 1 min chart and posting the before and after charts and the results - you guys wore my little brain out so I had to leave and just be the introvert that I am.
Very impressed by you 3. All of you should be proud of what you've accomplished.
Hope 2024 is the best year ever for all of us.

Hello All..
I thought its time to put a little update here since my last post about Zoltans training and mentorship.
Once again, a big thank you to Zoltan for taking me under his wing and showing me the way. I'm not sure I can thank enough.
This post I guess is an extension of the review and motiviation for the readers of this journal including myself.
Im happy to report that as of today I have reached the Acceleration stage of AxiSelect funding.. $100,000. I'll leave a screenshot of the dashboard, although it looks fairly bare, but thats because I have only just clicked the button to advance to the next stage and take the $100,000, hence no trading done yet.

HI ..
its time to put a little update here after finishing Zoltan's training and mentorship.
i have been into trading since 2009 ( 15 years ) ... Like everyone in this field read 1000 books
and being scammed for 1000 courses and bought indicators and startegies.
everytime i found that i do lack an edge to build on a stable income and i am not saying this is the case for everone else
some reached their goals after digging hard but this didn,t happen to me until i saw Zoltan's thread here and decided to go for it
waited for some time till Zoltan's schedule was available to start .
It was the REal DEal ... i used to wait for everday session counting hours for the next
for the first time i am infront of a mentor who do everything infront of your eyes live and with a big history for years
cant ask for more than that ... and after we finished our sessions ... he is the one who push you to join sessions for followups
just for him to be sure you are on track in terms of results
all my numbers since then turned dramataically .. i am still trading Demo till now for some personal reasons plus i am still
training myself how to stick to Zoltan's Rules as it is very critical ... i will show here some of my progress which includes some
of my mistakes when i dont stick to the Rules .... I cant thank enough Zoltan for this chance . IT HAS BEEN AN HONOUR BEING ONE OF YOUR STUDENTS Z !
