Congratulations engineer 👷

Thanks my bro. We thank God for everything .

Unto council approval now and possibly induction by August. May God spare our lives. Ameen.

Ikekeu:
Alright. It will definitely come

Alhamdulillah!!! All praise are due to Allah. I have been recommended for council. I checked my portal this morning and I saw the update.

I wish all the remaining colleagues success ASAP. We look forward to council approval by mid June God willing.

infofirst:
You're not alone in this journey. As @skanas and @captainjune wisely advised, it's crucial to partner with reputable firms and stay clear of those that seem too good to be true. Life is inherently risky, full of challenges and battles from the moment we're conceived to our final breath. Our very existence is a testament to the resilience of our ancestors, who overcame countless obstacles. To navigate this unpredictable landscape, our best strategy is to manage risk effectively. Nothing is guaranteed. Not even your money in the bank. Not your house with C of O. Remember, it's a continuous process that requires vigilance and adaptability.

Words of Gems! In other words the only thing we can control is Risk, that's what we need to focus on in any/all of our endeavors and manage it effective by reducing it to bearest minimum. By so doing, we would have ensure or discharge our part of the bargain in the scheme of things.

No doubt, the ultimate goal would be one day trading with reputable brokers of DMA which will not deny you any of your hard earned profits.

In summary don't be bothered much about prop firm or broker legit concern as this point but focus on developing your edge and risk management and such invaluable knowledge/skill can't be taken away from you again.

Ikekeu:
Thanks
Hope yours has changed too?

Not yet....We are still on the look out. Hopefully, this coming week, it will be sorted out God willing.

realone12:
59 position... though a lot of people will still be disqualified, which will eventually put me in a much better position, but I'm still going to end up in the same price bracket (which is 15k stellar account) and that is not bad.i made 100% return..

now is time to relax and trade the challenge account with ease without worrying about what the other people/contestants are doing..

Congratulations!!!

Ikekeu:
Good morning all.
I have recommended for council.
Let's us be hopeful and everyone expecting
recommendation for council will come.

Congratulations!!!

Ikekeu:
8th of May,Mechanical
My portal has not changed.
Any update?

Mine has not changed either. But from reliable source, I heard that the initial approval was only done for candidates for 6&7 of May earlier this week. That for 8&9 of May the approval will commence yesterday through today to Monday possibly.

So let keep checking our portals, hopefully ours is around the corner. We hope for the best. Most of people I knew hasn't seen an update also on their portal. I think they are doing it gradually not a in batch of a thing.

Ikekeu:
Amen & amen.
When did you have your PI and what discipline?

9th of May, Electrical. And yours? As your portal updated?

vacettetommy:
I checked my portal this evening and my status has changed to “Recommended for Council”

Big congratulations! This confirm what somebody told me this morning that those that had their PI on 8 &9 will start seeing update on their portal.

We look forward to ours God willing.

GabsonFX2:
This trade was not fully formed before I shorted it and I mentioned that, and added that I wanted to risk it. Truly, it is currently reversing against me after she moved 120 pips in my favour.

However, However, However.

I went to scalping and now have made the profits I need to balance and break even the loss in case I close this currently running short.....attached are my profits from the scalping.

We die here

The swing short will eventually come perhaps after this bull run. This might happen after taking out those recent high, then we should expect the awaited Swing SHORT

Fingers crossed 🤞

GabsonFX2:
This week trades, attached.

Gold is making another swing short attempt after many tries since Feb 13, I have shorted with SL at 300 pips gap....swing trading.

Big Boss pls recheck...I think the up swing has commence in earnest for next few days perhaps heading towards making a double top at D1 tf

vacettetommy:
I did that same day also and am yet to see anything on the portal

Okay...let keep our fingers crossed. Hopefully before week runs out, there will be something.

Let keep updating ourselves here. We pray for the best outcome.

NnajiCyrux:
Good Morning
I sat for Exam on 6th May Last two weeks.
And I have been Recommended for Council Today.

Congratulations! This is good news, like I said earlier, we should be seeing update on our portal this week.

I sat for mine on 9 May, hopefully we starting seeing ours soon. Wishing all success.

Saheedazeez:
Does anybody here know when the next council meeting will be? My status has changed to 'Recommended For Council'
I initiated my application in March through the NSE route.

Congratulations!!! Seems they are treating indirect route now, because I haven't seen anyone that sat for interview two weeks ago being recommended for council.

May be by tomorrow we should be seeing update in our portal too.

I think the council meeting will come up next month June hopefully. So that they can decide on the outcome of may Exam/interview.

Once again congratulations.

News will affect it by 3am ngn time when new Zealand monetary policy Statement will be released

Looking at the structure, it would be a bad idea to buy at the top of today's high

Any buying should be towards the center or low of today's daily bar and preferably after the news

Any plan for selling gbpnzd should be put on hold until market shows consolidation and bearish bars for the first 12 hrs of tomorrow

The best play for gbpnzd for me is to wait until the first 12 hrs bar prints for tomorrow.

I will wait for another pull back by tomorrow, so that I can long again because the upside outlook still bright provided yesterday resistance become strong support tomorrow.

GabsonFX2:
The news did change my bias, if today closes bearish, I will short her.

Boss the long bias still hold gidigba...never doubt it.

Wow! well thought out analysis, thumb up. I like how you envisage how the coming news might affect the pair. The BUY signal is now duly activated. It will surely take out yesterday high soon, where i will likely add more to long positions.

NnajiCyrux:
Here's a Civil Engineering 1st Class Graduate I met during my P.I.

NnajiCyrux:
Amen, Thanks for the Good Will.
I'm a Civil Engineer. The written Exam was to Answer 2 Question Out of 5, Num. 1 is Compulsory and a General Question (Engineer in Society) then Num 2 to 5 is Based on your Discipline, You'll pick one..
The General Question was Asking about Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship, the Constraints Faced by an Engineer in Setting up his own Start-up Company
Then the Civil Engineering Professional Questions, One Asked "As an Engineer, You were invited to Conduct an Integrity test on a (Steel) Structure, What Test will you carry out, discuss your Expectation from the Test. And if the test does not gives you your Reliable Result, what other Test would ur Carryout"..
Another Question Asked "As an Engineer, you have a Two Lane Road on a Rural Area Crossing Each other, make a Design to Avert Traffic across the Road" parameters were given though..
The Question I Answered Was "what is the Cause that the side of a Concrete Bridge turns Black over time" the b part was "Why is Epoxy Adhesive Applied in the Precast of a Concrete Mix for Bridge Constructions"
As For my Interview, my Interviewer asked me if my Project is a Building that was Actually Constructed or just an Academic Design. I said it was Built. He asked me what measures I took to Ensure that precautions were taken, he asked me to discuss HSE, He asked me the Different between BEME and BOQ, he asked me to Explain my VAT calculation in my BEME, he asked me who is the Current Minister for Works and who is the Current President of COREN, he asked me the type of foundation used for the Building, he asked me to explain the Test Carried out on the soil that brought Abt us using that foundation, he asked me to Explain the Test we Carried out on the Concrete and Reinforcement Rod. He also asked me what Instrument I used to Measure the Rod to ensure the Y12 and Y16 were Accurate.. then he ask if I have any thing to Say to him.. I told him what I want to tell him, and then he wished me Good luck and bye.

Wow! Thank you so much for the breakdown analysis. Wishing you the very BEST!

Though mine is Electrical but atleast one can see to some extent what to expect. Both the exam and the interview are more inclined toward practical application rather theory.

Thanks once again my Engr!

NnajiCyrux:
I Just wrote my Exam and did my Interview today, God be praised! We dey wait for Council.

Congratulations!!!

Pls would you mind giving us an overview of how everything goes. And what are questions asked in the exam and interview?

Wishing you a successful outcome.

Stay blessed!

Hotman95:
please engineers. What does it mean by YOUR APPLICATION HAS BEEN RECOMMENDED FOR FURTHER VETTING. Did they discover something wrong in my information?

No! If there's something wrong it would have been "Application Declined" based on some reason that you have to rectify on your application.

The next thing now would be scheduled you for upcoming interview with date.

BossFerd:
The PROPOSER RECOMMENDATION section on the COREN portal is the only section preventing me from having a complete profile for submission. How do I go about the responses that The two proposers has not recommended? It's strange... I have satisfied every other section but this section.
Is the PROPOSER RECOMMENDATION SECTION a new feature on the COREN portal. If you came across it. Please I will be glad I'm guided so I can submit

Please how did your proposer go about this as I am in the same scenario now. Anybody with useful info should pls share it.

Kay005:
Yes, the proposers recommendation is a new feature on Coren portal. Just tell your proposers to log in to their Coren portal, go to the "proposers request" and confirm/ recommend you. Thats all.

Please where exactly on the portal this button or tab is? My proposer can't seems to find it on their portal.

Please, I will appreciate if you can share a screenshot of the area on the portal, so that I can it forward to them.

Thanks

$100K Fundednext Funded Account ($10K Profits Achieved, all trading activities halted until May 1st)

---

I remember this post made on 8th of April about meeting this target of $7K. Then I saw the opportunity on gold skyrocketing; to me, I see this as an opportunity to scalp short only.

Profit = $10,046
Profit share = $8,036
15% of challenge profits (since 5% profits is met) = $1950
Challenge fee refund = $530 ish
Total = $10,516

End of trading cycle = May 1st

#Steadymotivationasalways

Congratulations Big Boss . But I don't believe this, because the real Gabsonfx2 we know must TRADE sha ni if the opportunity present itself unless you uninstall your MT5 from your phone lol.

Keep ginger us, God willing we also get there soon.

GabsonFX2:
I have them open since, the ones that don't show full metric are maybe discontinued and disconnected by the prop broker.

Gracia! Thanks
