After funding on Apex: did you change scalp frequency?
Passing is not the same job as staying funded. On challenge accounts I tended to over-trade to hit targets — more samples felt like more progress. After funding, the smarter move for me was fewer clicks with the same setups. Consistency rules and trailing drawdown logic punish busy hands more than quiet, selective ones.
What I changed once funded:
After you got funded (Apex or elsewhere), did scalp frequency go up, down, or stay the same — and what drove that choice?
I also stopped treating funded days like challenge catch-up sessions. The target is already behind you; the job is not to recreate the climb every morning. Quiet adherence beats theatrical frequency once the account is live-funded.

What I changed once funded:
- Daily click budget down, not up.
- Same risk per trade, but fewer allowed attempts before the session is done.
- News blackouts treated as sacred; soft breach warnings are expensive teachers if you ignore them.
