Back to EpisodesFrom Penny Stocks to Futures Live Accounts - w. Ashley Aguilar
Description
This week i am joined by Ashley to talk about her trading background and rapid progress in futures prop firms. We cover how she started with penny stocks and options, moved into futures to avoid options greeks, and learned the hard way about gambling, emotions, and blowing accounts before getting consistent. Ashley shares how simplifying charts, accepting uncertainty, using firm risk rules, and committing to stop-losses and manual lockouts helped her become profitable, including her first payout and scaling to 10–11 accounts. We also discuss scalping vs 2–3R targets, daily loss limits, micro-scalping time rules, and her experiences with Funded Next, Tradeify, Apex, Lucid (including a transition to live and platform changes), and Halcyon. Finally, we talk community, mindset, manifesting, and giving back.
