Two things, and both are today. The eight funded accounts go out tonight, live. On the 13th I said I would give away eight WeMasterTrade accounts this month: one 50k, two 25k, and five 10k. Those numbers are the size of the challenge account you would be trading. They are not money anyone is being given, and not money anyone has made. I am doing it live, in tonight's free session, 8pm EAT. Be there if you entered. Be there if you did not — you should get to see how this is decided. Entries close when we go live at 8pm. If you have not sent your video yet, today is the day. Post it under the Propfirm category as its own post, not as a comment. I said that in the thread twelve days ago and it got buried, so here it is somewhere you can actually see it. The challenge starts today. The trading challenge I took you through in the last class opens today, on Valetax accounts. The rules are exactly as I gave them in class. If you were not there, or you want them in writing, say so below and I will put them up as their own post. Do not start on somebody else's version of them. One more thing, and it matters more than the accounts do. There are eight accounts and there are far more than eight of you. Most of you will not get one tonight. That is arithmetic. It is not a verdict on your trading. And for the eight who do: an account is not an achievement. It is a set of rules you now have to keep under pressure with somebody else's number attached. People who lose funded accounts rarely lose them to the market. They lose them in the first week, trading like they have something to prove. So before 8pm — what is the one rule you broke most often last week, and what are you putting in place today so that a bigger account does not make it worse?

Before you open a chart this week, one question about last week. Sometime this week a setup came along that met every rule you had written, and you did not take it. And sometime this week one came along that met none of them, and you took it without pausing. Most of us did both. Often on the same day. Those are not two different failures. It is one loop. You hesitate because you are afraid of losing, you miss, and missing makes the next one feel urgent - so you force it. The forcing loses, and now you hesitate harder. The way out is not more discipline. It is deciding earlier. Write your entry criteria down before the session starts, so the trader who shows up at 2pm has to argue with something in writing instead of with a feeling. So - the win I want from you today, in R only, no money amounts: Which one were you this week: the one who hesitated, or the one who forced? And what was written down before the session started, if anything?
