Even if you lost the account I think it's great because taking that first payout proves that you can actually make money with this, that's huge.

Yup. :
Long term trader here— I can say that you taking that money out and teaching yourself that you have developed the skill set, and had that money TOUCH your actual bank account is teaching you more than you know right now. So many traders “build” an account, never take money out, and then blow the account. You’re doing great. Keep it up and congrats on finding the best way to freedom.

I think if you have been grinding at it for a while with no money coming in take that payout, recoup your investment in the evals you bought. ya you blow the account but there is always another account.. pay yourself for the hard work

Always take that first payout when you can, getting that money sent to your bank is a game changer. You did it once you’ll do it again, don’t rush it $120 a day 5 days a week is an extra 10k a month.

yeah people recommend you have double what you want to take out first. so if you want 500$ you need to have 1K, if you want 2K you should have 4K

When u take your 1st payout, you’re only left with half, you no longer have the $2k. I try to get to atleast $2k before I take a payout
