In this video, I focus on establishing my approach to a futures trading challenge through a prop firm account. I explain the definition of a prop firm account and outline how working with one offers the opportunity to risk a small amount of personal capital for potentially significant upside. I emphasize the characteristics of futures trading, such as the absence of the pattern day trader rule and the near-round-the-clock operational hours, which can enable me to structure trades more flexibly. As I proceed with the trading session, I begin by using smaller contract sizes to balance the YOLO approach against the account parameters set forth by Sam. I discuss risk management decisions, the impact of trendlines, and evaluating key levels, as well as how I incorporate position sizing adjustments as the session unfolds. Through these trades, I aim to highlight the complexities, emotional challenges, and strategic considerations inherent in futures trading and prop firm-funded endeavors, all while operating within the constraints and guidelines specified for this YOLO trading challenge.
