Please introduce yourself: Who you are, your age, where you are from, and what you do for a living.

My name is Jaseem Pulikkal. I’m 33 years old, from India, and I’m currently a full-time trader.

What is your trading routine?

My trading routine typically begins around 6 a.m. Indian time. I focus on market hours, including the Asian market opening and the pre-open sessions of London and New York. I start by analyzing price action and market movements, while also keeping an eye on relevant news for confirmation. Once I’ve identified potential entry points, I wait patiently for the best setup that aligns with my trading rules.

What are your goals with funded trading?

My goal with funded trading is to manage larger capital, which will enhance my personal trading portfolio.

Do you have a trading plan in place, and do you strictly follow it? Please elaborate

I am very disciplined and adhere closely to the rules I set for myself. My trading plan is detailed, which helps me follow it without letting emotions cloud my judgment.

What did you find easier, the FUNDING FRONTIER Challenge or Verification phase? Share your thoughts

I believe traders should not focus too much on Phase 1 or Phase 2. Instead, concentrate on your trading plan and risk management. By doing so, any trader can pass the evaluation and get funded in no time.

How would you rate your experience with FUNDING FRONTIER?

Funding Frontier is the best funding company I’ve worked with to date. They are trustworthy, provide guarantees, and facilitate fast withdrawals of your profit splits.

What advice would you give to other traders attempting the FUNDING FRONTIER Challenge?

Don’t give up. It’s all about practice. Keep at it, and your time will come.

Do you plan to take another FUNDING FRONTIER Challenge to manage even bigger capital?

Yes, I plan to scale up my trading account and take on larger challenges as part of my growth strategy.

Describe your best trade

My best trade was a buy on XAUUSD during Phase 2 of my challenge. That single trade helped me hit the 5% profit target in just a few hours and was instrumental in passing that phase.

What is the number one piece of advice you would give to a new trader?

A trading career is built through years of dedication. It’s not a get-rich-quick scheme, so take your time to learn the craft, and the profits will follow.

How did you first hear about FUNDING FRONTIER?

I first heard about Funding Frontier through my research and recommendations from fellow traders.

Can you describe your risk management plan?

I aim to risk no more than 1% per trade. However, if I spot a high-quality opportunity, I may risk up to 2%, ensuring that I never breach the daily drawdown limit of 5%.
