TIPS TO PASS FTMO
Focus on consistency over big wins — FTMO values steady equity curves
Use the free trial to test your strategy before paying for the challenge
Track your daily drawdown in real-time — one bad day can end your challenge
The 4-day minimum is easy to miss if you front-load trades early
WHY TRADERS FAIL FTMO
Revenge trading after a losing day, breaking the 5% daily limit
Oversizing positions to hit the 10% target faster
Ignoring the daily drawdown while focusing only on total P&L
Trading without a journal — repeating the same mistakes across attempts
