Heyaa! I came across your video, and I have to say it’s really good! Finance is my most favourite niche and I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and also make highly engaging shorts out of them.

Thanks for sharing! I applied for the third intake and passed the first assessment! Hopefully, I'll have the opportunity to join. btw may I know the purpose of joining a prop firm? Do they provide you with funds, and you trade them for profit sharing?

[ying]

congrats and great job, wow!! can you share more about how you deal with taxes as a full time trader? is there anything malaysians need to look out for / be more wary of? (edit: oh but actually if you're working as a trader for a prop, it's basically the same as taxes for normal employee right?)

[innocentharry]

Hi, did they teach a technique that enables trading while working, like swing trading which doesn't need too much monitoring

[luqmanhakim]

i actually stare at chart everyday and found some new technique that i like and no one teach it online and i draw the same thing everyday

Salam bang, I got selected for the second batch of FTAP!

Hey emir! Checking out this video again, I think I’m going to try applying for the next batch! I’m curious though, are us msian retailers actually legally allowed to trade futures cfds?

[DanielReynold]

Since I became so rich in cryptocurrency I realise that crypto is the future cuz I invested 15k and 70k as weekly profit I appreciate the help of your channel 😃🙂

[SEAN_BOSS]

[AlgosChild]

[joelleeyongsoon]
