It's a lot to absorb if you are new to this, so no worries about asking questions. To answer your questions: 1. Ideally you want to be next to your computer, but usually if you set up a trade according to what Kyle teaches you, you let it run its course. The only issue to note is that all trades must be closed at the end of trading day. Futures markets close at 5pm EST and reopen at 6pm EST. So you must be out of your trade before the close or your EA/PA account will be liquidated. Different prop firms have slightly different times that you have to close the trade - Apex requires that you close by 4:59pm. So if you do leave your computer, make sure to come back and look at it before close time to make sure your traded finalized. 2. There are a few places you can create the trade. The most common with Kyles teaching is using TradingView (in my experience it is the easiest one since you do all your charting there), but you can also use the Tradovate's platform (the trading broker) or Ninja Trader. 3. Yes. It depends on the account size you purchase and prop firms provide all the info when you browse the different plan options. Usually $50K accounts, for example, will have $2,000-$2,5000 trailing drawdown, depending on the plan.
