Order flow on real trades

Every guide breaks down a real trade: where the level was, what the footprint showed, where the stop sat.

  1. 01 Absorption on the footprintAggressive selling hits the bid, but price won’t go lower. What it looks like in candles and delta. Soon
  2. 02 POC, VAH and VALYesterday’s and today’s volume profile: which levels I mark before the open and why the POC comes first. Soon

Prop firms without the marketing promises

Before you pay for a challenge, know exactly where it can knock you out. Every review covers the rules, the traps and how payouts really work.

  • Drawdown type and where your limit lands after a winning day
  • Consistency, minimum trading days, news and scalping restrictions
  • Payouts: timing, limits and whether they pay out in your country
  • Platform and data: is there real order flow

If a link has an affiliate program, it says so right next to it.

PROP FIRM REVIEWS

First reviews in progress

Starting with the prop firms I trade myself, then the most popular ones. Each page gets the rules, a calculator preset for that firm and an honest verdict.

ABOUT

Not a guru. A trader in progress.

I don’t sell a course and I don’t promise income. I trade NQ and MNQ with order flow, I’m building my own trading system, and I share the process openly: the rules, the mistakes and what I changed.

No screenshots of “10x gains” here. Just rules, mistakes and lessons, out in the open.

SYSTEM JOURNAL

Once a month: which rules worked, which mistakes kept repeating and what I changed.

First entries coming soon.
