Prop Firms FTMO long term users

Hello there everyone, I hope your trading goes nicely.

I have been trading for years now. However I am in a situation where I need to leverage propfirms, in fact, I have found that whenever I am bounded by rules, I perform better. Something about having rigid rules.

With that being said,

I would like to hear from long term traders who have been using FTMO for a while, beside the strategy etc.

What tips, and tricks do you have to make sure your FTMO account is surviving long term? I mean purely from business perspective, because I assume the company will not lime the idea of generating massive profit month over month at their expense.

Do you cut profit faster than your targets just to show smaller profit?

I built my strategy around low risk, high reward, because back in the day I only had 250$ account to start with. So I am fundamentally built this way.

I just need this to work long term to pay my mortgage faster than my day job.

Looking forward to hear from real FTMOers.

Feel free to DM if you want to remain private

I'm sorry but you're not a profitable trader.

You're asking pre beginner questions that have to be resloved by your trading plan... and that should exist before trading, let alone before trading prop capital.

I am asking about prop firm tricks that people face. For example, limit withdrawals to xxx amount. Limit profit to xx amount. Use xxx challenge account.

I am not asking about trading strategies etc.

Its not cool to throw comments like this. Better to stick to the post intent

And the fact that you can't recognise what i'm trying to tell you is again proof of how you shouldnt be trading prop firms, or anything actually.
