Simplified Trader 9:30am Model

It won 34% of trades and finished about even when the target was twice the risk. A what-if on the same trades says a smaller target would have passed.

A dash means the video did not report that number.

Would a 34% win rate at 2R pass a prop firm challenge? Try it in the simulator →

A note

I had to guess a few rules: news days, the cutoff time, repeat entries, and end-of-day exits. The what-if uses the same trades. It is not a new test.

Where the numbers come from

Checked Sep 22, 2026. These numbers come from the video. They are backtest or simulated results, not live trading, and not financial advice.
