Prop Firm vs. Personal Capital - ปัญหา Drawdown

Totally agree with the psychological aspect. It's a double-edged sword: the fear of blowing the account can paralyze you, but it also prevents the kind of emotional trading that can wipe out personal capital.

The balance is definitely key. I think prop firms force you to develop a much stronger risk management plan than most personal accounts, simply because the consequences of not having one are so immediate.

I've found the 'not your money' idea to be a myth for myself. If anything, the pressure to maintain the account makes me even more cautious than with my own funds. The fixed drawdown is a constant reminder of the rules.
