The path from zero to payout, using nothing but the Superman Indicator!

Greetings, fellow entrepreneurs! Let me share my journey over the past two years, and the final sprint that saw me cross the finish line.

I started day trading futures using prop firms, two years ago after joining the InvestCEO group, called Next Door Trader back then. I quickly learnt the markets, price action, and the tech tools we have available to us. However, I failed to grasp emotional control and discipline, which is perhaps the hardest bit. By the end of the first year, I worked on that personal development enough to clear a few EA (evaluation) accounts. But I was still blowing Performance Accounts with no payout in sight. I was trading the iterations of the groups strategy, which improved and eventually became the "Superman" and "Jedi" style of trading.

The newer strategies worked better, passing EAs more easily, but still stalling on my PAs. Towards July of '24, I became the developer of InvestCEO's Superman Indicator. At that point I realised that I absolutely must set the best example, if I am to be this strategy's torch-bearer. And so I did. Whilst developing it, I discovered accidentally that the indicator tends to "overlap" supply and demand zones, making them appear brighter. As it turned out, the brighter the zone, the more probable a win. Sure as eggs, it sustained those higher win rates over time, and I passed multiple EAs using this Superman 'brightness' technique.

Now with adequate discipline, the final test was whether I could take one of those new PAs to full payout threshold, from $50,000 to $52,600 on the Apex accounts, using nothing but the Superman Indicator. I did, and it only took 60 days to reach it.

My account balances and trading history are now concrete proof that through emotional control, a good indicator, and plenty of logging, any of us can take a new EA, pass it, and get to the first of many payouts!

Here's my first approved payout, and if anyone is wondering about the brightness levels I mentioned, do have a peek at my Superman screenshot below. Happy trading, and we'll see you up in the clouds!
