Yesterday at 7:31 PM

In this funded trader interview, Jaylen Laudermilk explains how nearly seven years of market experience—from trading in high school and college to specializing in small caps—led to a $25K FLEX funded account. A short seller at heart, Jaylen targets stocks below $25 with tight float and market-cap criteria, then looks for early spikes near higher-timeframe resistance. His evaluation produced a 57% success rate, 1.67 profit factor, and $252.90 NXTC short.

Jaylen's strongest message: Build a cushion first and tailor the strategy to the account’s risk rules.

In this funded trader interview, UK-based Michael Chapman explains how nearly two years of trial, loss, and adaptation led to a $25K MAX funded account. Primarily trading volatile small caps, Michael reads market conditions daily and uses 9 EMA and VWAP pullbacks, tape behavior, halt action, and trend exhaustion to trade both directions. His evaluation produced a 50.62% success rate, 1:2.9 risk-reward ratio, and a $368.65 DFNS short.

Michael C's strongest message: Treat simulated capital like real money and make the daily pause a safety net - not a target!

His 35.87% success rate is supported by a 1:2.5 risk-reward ratio and a $4,411.80 FIRY short. His central lesson is direct: stop predicting what the market should do and react to what price is actually doing.
