Not gonna lie, I'm pretty excited and wanted to share. I found Kyle and this community on April 14th. Went through the course and had a lot of confidence practicing. As someone who knew nothing, and I mean nothing, not even familiar with any of this terminology, I was nervous about jumping into an Evaluation for a funded account. However, after being part of the PA Q&A session with Coach Stephen, I was convinced to give it a shot and started my first EA on April 24. What did I really have to lose? My first EA within 4 days was down to $200 left on my Drawdown. I took a few days and realized it was my emotions and confidence holding me back and not allowing me to reach the success I had in practice. Within a few days I had my EA back in the positive, and I admit, let the positive feelings lead me to maybe jumping the gun a bit and buying 2 more EAs on the last day of the last Apex sale on April 30. Today I passed those 2 EA's and my original is $100 bucks away from passing as well and I'm at a loss for words. I never thought I'd be down this path last month. I am forever grateful to Kyle and the rest of this awesome community for putting me on this course. My life has a direction that I didnt know existed a month ago, and I am absolutely locked in. Thank you Kyle, Ryan, Stephen, the rest of the coaches and the rest of you guys and girls for your positive energy always and the help and support you all have freely given. I'm just getting started, and I want to make sure that any of you that may be doubting yourself or doubting the process in general, or any of this... If I could do this, anyone here can.

It's been a long road to get to this place and I finally feel like I've got my groove. Finding groups like these are invaluable in building confidence and creating a framework that works. Gratitude for Kyle and all he does!

Timeline to passing: May 2024: Found InvestCEO group after Kyle won the Skool Games June '24 - Sept '24: Took time to go through the course material (more than once) over the summer October 24- March '25: Finished Paper trading and started EA trading - Had no clue how important the daily plan and mindset/emotional discipline part of the course would be such a large determining factor of positive trading outcomes. April '25: Passed Eval (just under 6 month mark) What worked well: - Follow Kyles advice What didn't: - Make up my own trading strategy (Kyles programme is a proven formula, no need to mess with it) - Not logging Trades (primarily due to overtrading - too many to log) - Not limiting risk - Not waiting for quality trades to go for higher profit factor - Not staying in the trade - cancelling early does not protect EA it left me worse off in the long run - Not patient enough (March '25 was a real eye opener, tough trading month, you dont need to trade every day or even every week! I kept forcing trades each week. Comparatively, Kyle barely took any trades and walked away with $50k on almost the last day of the month) I have always wanted to get a better understanding of how the stock market works and how to actually begin trading, entry always seemed like a closed door. Given almost 100% of what you need to be a profitable successful trader is given away for FREE is ridiculous. Ill stop now but big thanks to @Kyle Henris for the relentless daily work rate and to @Ryan Henris , the coaches, our new firePOD and the community for putting up with all my stupid newby questions. If anyone has been at this awhile and feels like giving up, it only takes 3 - 4 good trades to pass. Be patient, keep going 🔥
