<h3>Tell us a little bit about you.<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>I am Santi Othivet. I am from Laos. I am 28 years old. I love reading books.</p>
<h3>How long have you been trading?</h3>
<p>I started trading with my own funds with many brokers in 2019</p>
<h3>Briefly describe your Trading Plan and how it contributes to your success.<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>The Trading Plan is pretty simple. I use the TradingView website to set up and follow the real-time economic news. My main strategy is trading using Eillot Wave, Trend Rider, Support and Resistance, and SMC (Smart Money Concept)</p>
<h3>Please share with us a challenge you faced in your trading career and how you overcame it.<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>Of course, traders cannot be perfect. They cannot win every time. It’s better to take a break after a bad day and sit back to think about the mistakes and try to sort them out from time to time. I almost hit the max drawdown with 5ers, but in the end, I tried my best to come back, and yes I did it.</p>
<h3>How did you adjust risk management to your trading personality?<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>My daily profit target is not big, only 1% of the initial balance. When I hit my target, I have to stop for that day. Also when I am at loss, I will stop at 1%</p>
<h3><strong>Describe a key moment in your trading career</strong></h3>
<p>I have a lot of great moments. I will share with you one of them. I opened a trade Buy 2.0 lot during the war. I gained a big profit because the price moved up more than 1500 points. This is one of the best moments in my trading career.</p>
<h3>How long does it take to become a consistent trader, and what aspects did you change that helped you become consistent?<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>Almost a year, I would say. I learned a lot, and it paid off with my hard work</p>

</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>What is your mental/psychological strength, and how did you develop it?</h3>
<p>As long as I follow my trading strategy, I don’t care if the trade will close with profit or loss. I always close the PC and try to find some interesting things to do after I open trades.</p>
<h3>What was your strategy to successfully pass The5ers&#8217; evaluation?<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>I use many different strategies. My main strategy is trading using Eillot Wave, Trend Rider, Support and Resistance, and SMC (Smart Money Concept)</p>
<h3>How is trading for The5ers different from trading by yourself?<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>I am more organized and obsessed with trading rules which I need to follow when trading with 5ers, unlike trading with my own funds. Trading with 5ers is great. I love the way I perform my trades.</p>
<h3>What would you recommend to someone who is just starting with us?<strong><br />
</strong></h3>
<p>Take it easy. Everything takes time. Don’t rush and put yourself under pressure. Have a good trading strategy and try to make a profit from that.</p>
<h3>Please share online resources that were/are significant in your trading development</h3>
