## Resource

Zach (Real Deal Futures) returns for part 3 of The Day Trading Show to break down his run of five consecutive five-figure months in prop firm payouts.

Click here — ⁠https://www.propfirmmatch.com/?a_aid=asfx They dig into the community backlash around traders getting "moved to live" right before big sim payouts, how Zach approaches spend/reinvestment discipline (funding new evals with prior payouts rather than a fixed budget), what "aggressive" trading actually means (patient entries + heavy size, not random clicking), and why higher-frequency scalping with modest risk-to-reward tends to favor consistent payouts. Zach also explains why he shut down his free YouTube streams to launch a high-touch, four-month one-on-one coaching program (unlimited text/call access, weekly check-ins), and the two wrap with talk on futures trading competitions, in-person community at events, and the ASFX Bootcamp returning May 13–14 in Tampa.Connect With Zach @RealDealFutures Work with me + discounts on my favorite firms → https://www.asfx.biz/links
