• Tell us a little bit about you.
  This is an amazing opportunity. Thank you so much for it. My name is Alex, I’m an artist at heart, but I love day trading. I also love the gym and will go 5 to 6 days a week.

• How long have you been trading?
  I have been a Part-Time Trader for 5 years.
  

• Briefly describe your Trading Plan and how it contributes to your success.
  I use a style of trading called moment trading. I look for stocks with a good volume between the 1 to 10 dollar range.

• Share with us a challenge you faced in your trading career and how you overcame it.
  Trading out of boredom and overcoming FOMO was a big problem for me missing out. However, I’m overcoming it by being more patient and only trading setups I really like.

• How did you adjust risk management to your trading personality?
  I’ll use low position size on trades where I’m not extremely confident in

• Describe a key moment in your trading career.
  I lost my job back in august of 2022 due to it shutting down. I decided then that I wanted to take trading seriously and full-time. So on my first day, I increased my account size by around 10%, and the next day I did it again. I knew then it was what I wanted to do.

• How long did it take for you to become a consistent trader, and what aspects did you change for that?
  I started becoming consistent trading around the end of 2022. After that, I had to lower my position sizes and adjust to the bear market.

• What is your mental/psychological strength, and how did you develop it
  I developed my mental and emotional strength through discipline, support groups, and faith in a higher power.

• What was your strategy for successfully passing the evaluation phase?
  I looked for stocks gapping up with a solid volume and would buy the pullbacks and sell on the way up.

• How is trading for Trade The Pool different from trading by yourself?
  I used to trade pre-market and would love to have that opportunity in the future with trade the pool.

• What would you recommend to someone who is just starting with us?
  Take it seriously and put in your best effort every day.

• Share online resources that were/are significant in your trading development. Names and links are appreciated.
