Episode notes
Welcome to another Trade The Pool funded trader interview. Today, Michael sits down with Arash M., a FLEX $100,000 funded trader from the USA!
Arash shares how he shifted from struggling with options to trading equities like Tesla ($TSLA) using Trade The Pool’s stock-focused, Limited Risk proprietary trading platform.
With over a decade of trading experience, he discusses overcoming consistent losses, a six-month mental health break, and passing the FLEX $100K evaluation on his fourth attempt. With a 55% success rate and a 1:1.2 risk/reward ratio, Arash’s strategy of small but more consistent profits and strict stop-losses, aided by ChatGPT for journaling trade analysis, demonstrates the power of AI, patience and discipline.
