In prop trading, big milestones often get the spotlight-but real progress is built long before that. For Jinghuan Z, success at The Trading Pit isn’t about headline numbers yet. It’s about consistency.
So far, Jinghuan has earned 5 rewards, and while he’s the first to admit these aren’t major rewards yet, they represent something far more important: a repeatable process, disciplined execution, and the ability to follow rules over time. That’s exactly what we like to celebrate at TTP.
Background
Jinghuan Z’s trading journey began through recommendations from friends. What started as an introduction quickly turned into a structured learning path. Instead of jumping between strategies, he focused on understanding the market step by step and building a system he could rely on.
From early on, his mindset was clear-progress comes from learning, patience, and doing the same things well, over and over again.
Why The Trading Pit?
For Jinghuan, discovering The Trading Pit was a key moment in his development as a trader. He describes it as one of the most important turning points in his journey.
The clear rules, structured environment, and focus on disciplined trading aligned perfectly with his belief that long-term growth comes from consistency-not shortcuts. TTP also reinforced his commitment to continuous learning, which he sees as non-negotiable for sustainable performance.
Achievements with The Trading Pit
Jinghuan has earned 5 rewards so far, and while he doesn’t consider them major milestones yet, he sees them as proof that his process works.
Each reward came from following the same rules:
Rather than chasing bigger numbers too quickly, Jinghuan is focused on stacking consistent results. For him, these rewards are a checkpoint-not the destination.
Trading Style and Discipline
Simplicity is at the core of Jinghuan’s trading approach. He relies mainly on EMA 20 and EMA 55, combining moving averages with price action to guide his decisions.
He doesn’t follow a rigid trading style or a single session, but he is most active during the Asian, European, and U.S. sessions.
His execution rules are clear:
Long trades are taken near key support levels with strong confirmation candles
Short trades follow the same logic in reverse
Trades are exited once a predefined risk-to-reward target is reached
Emotion control plays a major role in his consistency. Once a trade is placed, he doesn’t interfere. Stop losses are never moved, and decisions are never revisited mid-trade.
Preparation is just as important as execution. Jinghuan reviews previous price action, marks key levels by hand, and sets alerts in advance. When price reaches those areas, he waits for confirmation instead of rushing into the market.
Lessons Learned Along the Way
One of his biggest challenges came from trading XAUUSD during ranging market conditions. Frequent stop-outs taught him a valuable lesson: not every market environment is worth trading.
Learning to wait for clear trends helped him reduce unnecessary trades and improved his overall consistency.
Psychologically, Jinghuan stays grounded by trusting his system and believing in his process-especially during drawdowns.
Advice to Other Traders
His advice is simple: use one method and stick to it.
Avoid overtrading, avoid constant strategy changes, and don’t move stop losses. Consistency comes from repetition and discipline, not from trying to outsmart the market every day.
What’s Next for Jinghuan Z?
Jinghuan’s next goal isn’t about chasing bigger rewards - it’s about earning them the right way.
He plans to continue growing by:
Maintaining strict risk management
Trading less, but with higher-quality setups
Staying fully committed to his system
Letting consistency compound over time
By doing exactly what earned him his first 5 rewards, Jinghuan believes the bigger milestones will follow naturally.
And here at TTP, that’s exactly the kind of growth we like to see!
