Meet Faizan, a Funded Trader with Funding Frontier. Discover how Faizan and other traders secured funding and gain insights and tips for a successful trading journey.

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

My name is Faizan, and I’m 20 years old from India. I’m currently a student, and alongside my studies, I run a small shop. I also trade part-time.

How did you get introduced or start trading?

I first got the idea of investing when I was in college. My teacher introduced me to intraday trading and taught me how to do it. That’s what got me started.

Do you have any hobbies, and what do you enjoy outside of trading? Do you find that these hobbies benefit your trading? Please elaborate.

I don’t have many hobbies, but I enjoy talking a lot. Engaging in conversations helps me clear my mind and stay relaxed.

What is your trading routine?

I focus on trading only one session—the London session. I find that sticking to one session helps me remain disciplined and consistent with my trading approach.

What are your goals with funded trading?

My dream is to manage $1 million in funding. I believe that achieving this goal will give me the financial freedom I’m striving for.

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

Yes, I follow a trading plan very closely, which was given to me by my teacher. The plan includes specific strategies and risk management rules that I adhere to strictly.

How would you describe your trading style?

I focus on 30-minute candle closes, trading within one session. For me, a 30-minute candle is enough to make informed trading decisions. This style helps me keep things simple and avoids overtrading.

What was the most challenging obstacle in your trading journey?

The most challenging obstacle was not finding the right mentor early on. It took some time to connect with someone who could guide me properly, but once I did, my trading improved significantly.

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

I like all the aspects of Funding Frontier’s support system. The challenge and verification phases were both well-structured. The support team and Kashif Bhai have been great. However, there was a slight delay in my payout, but this was resolved, so overall, the experience has been positive.

How would you rate your experience with FUNDING FRONTIER?

I would rate my experience 4.5 out of 5 stars. The support and resources provided have been very helpful in my trading journey.

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

My advice would be to follow your trading plan and manage your risk effectively. Consistency and discipline are key to passing the challenge.

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

Yes, absolutely. I don’t even consider purchasing accounts from other companies. I plan to continue with Funding Frontier and aim to manage larger accounts.

Describe your best trade.

My best trade was a one-hour breakout trade. It played out perfectly, and the satisfaction of seeing my analysis work out was great.

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

Choose a good mentor and trust their guidance. Listening to a mentor who has experience can save you a lot of time and help you avoid common mistakes.

How did you first hear about FUNDING FRONTIER?

I heard about it through Kashif Bhai.

Can you describe your risk management plan?

I stick to risking 1% of my account per day. This disciplined approach helps me protect my capital and keep my trading consistent.
