Pro traders recognise patience, trust, and ambition as key to their trading success with Axi’s capital allocation program, Axi Select.
Axi Select, Axi’s ground-breaking capital allocation program, is shaking the waves in the prop trading sphere for the past year now.
The program is crafted with a sole purpose in mind: to offer talented traders a fair and structured pathway to access up to $1,000,000 USD in capital funding, with the opportunity to earn up to 90% of the profits. Other notable features of Axi Select include zero registration fees and zero monthly charges*; the option to use either a Standard or a Pro live trading account; unrestrictive trading conditions, be it news events, high watermark levels, or holding positions over the weekend; and much more.
Since its launch in 2023, over 17,000 traders have started trading with Axi Select, and over the past few weeks, we’ve seen numerous traders taking us deep into the depths of their journeys through Axi Select Talks, Axi’s new podcast series.
What stands out the most are having patience, trust in your broker, and be ambitious.
Patience
“My strategy doesn’t generate profit every day. Profit comes in waves, and sometimes you have to wait,” says Gerald, Axi Select trader and the first to reach the Pro stage of the program.
Patience is a keystone of trading, and what usually distinguishes success from failure. Having patience helps traders make informed decisions, rather than succumbing to impulsive moves driven by market volatility or global news events. Axi Select is, indeed, a program that aims for long-term growth, with Greg Rubin, Head of Axi Select at Axi, vocalising that because Axi appreciates that trading is difficult, the company works relentlessly to provide its Axi Select clients with all the necessary tools to help them succeed over time.
Ambition
“Being the first one (to secure the $1,000,000 USD funding) is not important to me. I hope that I will reach that level… and even if I reach that level after two years, I’ll be more than happy,” says Gerard on the importance of ambition to him.
Ambition is one of the most essential drivers of success in trading. It pushes traders to learn, set long-term goals, and adapt in the ever-evolving market. Without ambition, traders would lack the drive to continuously sharpen their skills, causing them to falter at the first challenge. On talking about Axi Select and securing the maximum funding available, Carlos Dalagrana, Axi Select trader, explains what trading to the top would really mean to a trader: “You have the satisfaction of knowing that you managed to do something that really isn’t easy. It’s not impossible. It’s clearly possible. It’s something that motivates me and I intend to get there and celebrate with you later (talking to his interviewer).”
Trust
Trust who you’re trading with. Take the time into finding a broker that does not use superficial incentives or unrealistic promises of success to attract clients. Invest time and energy into finding a fair and well-structured capital allocation program – one that is trader-centric and transparent, and one that is genuinely committed to fostering long-term growth and success.
With so many prop trading firms getting shut down over the past year, it comes as no surprise that Axi Select seems to have become a promising choice for those ambitious traders who are interested in forging long-term trading careers.
