How Fast Could You Earn $100K From Prop Firms?

How Fast Could You Earn $100K From Prop Firms?

Author: Austin Silver July 5, 2025 Duration: 1:01:55

In this Home Team episode of The Day Trading Show, James Bruce and Evan Dyer join me to break down how one of our students just had a $113,000 day trading with prop firms. We unpack exactly what led to that kind of result — from smart account scaling to clean VWAP-based execution and total detachment from the P&L.

We also dive into the mindset differences between traders just getting started and those taking consistent payouts, plus how to build confidence, avoid overtrading, and actually treat this like a business. You’ll hear us share real wins, real losses, and the behind-the-scenes of trading funded accounts at scale.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Home Team episode without a little trash talk and debate — we get into which sport produces the best athletes (spoiler: it’s not basketball), and kick around ideas for a future Europe or South Africa content trip.
