He Kept Blowing Evals Until He Stopped Treating Them Like “Just $97” | Michael C. 📈 MAX 25K

In this funded trader interview, UK-based Michael Chapman explains how nearly two years of trial, loss, and adaptation led to a $25K MAX funded account. Primarily trading volatile small caps, Michael reads market conditions daily and uses 9 EMA and VWAP pullbacks, tape behavior, halt action, and trend exhaustion to trade both directions. His evaluation produced a 50.62% success rate, 1:2.9 risk-reward ratio, and a $368.65 DFNS short. Michael C's strongest message: Treat simulated capital like real money and make the daily pause a safety net - not a target! He is funded with $25,000 buying power🎯► $25,000 MAX Funded Account Performance: Best stock: T3 Defense Inc (DFNS) - July 31, 2026Success rate: 50.62%Risk/Reward ratio: 1 : 2.9Biggest win: +$368.65 DFNS short x 80 shares 🟢Biggest loss: -$82.50 ZCMD short x 250 shares 🔴Catch the FULL VIDEO here 👉 https://youtu.be/lUEEjr6BadICould you be Trade The Pool’s next funded stock trader?► Follow us!Website: https://tradethepool.com/YouTube: https://youtube.com/@tradethepoolInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tradethepoolX/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tradethepoolFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/trade.the.poolTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tradethepool
