Speaker: Louise Dippenaar, Pensionar
What motivated you to enrol in the “How to Pass a Prop Firm Challenge” course?
Louise Dippenaar: Good evening. Um, I just would like to thank everybody that was supporting me during this difficult time trying to do trading. I am 68 years old and I thought this I'd never make it. Um, I would just like to thank especially Chris, Chris Pohl, you were amazing. You've been motivating me all the time. Um, Jacques, your lessons were absolutely fantastic, um. I, uh, the people Yolanda, on the, on the technical side, thank you very much for all your help. If it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't have made it. But yes, I'm very proud to say I've passed the Prop Firm Challenge and I thought I would not even come near it. Um, so I just want to give hope to all those, uh, uh, uh, students or whatever we can call ourselves. Keep going, don't, don't give up, try and try again. Um, the best thing is to believe in yourself, get your mindset right, and, um, if I can do it, you all can do it. Um, I must say. Um, I was very sceptical in the beginning, but, uh, tonight I can say I have really caused a lot of challenges, not only this, this challenge, but now I believe in myself. Thank you, everybody. It was a great, great, uh, walk. And if I could know each or one of you, I would give you a hug and say, keep going, never give up.
How did the course improve your understanding of the prop firm challenge process?
Louise Dippenaar: This course improved my personality, my self being, my self-esteem, and please, I wanna be all of you. Don't give up. I was at the edge of giving up, but keep on, keep it up. You will win and you will succeed at the end of the day.
What was the most valuable lesson, strategy, or insight you gained from the course?
Louise Dippenaar: I think I'm gonna have a good night's sleep tonight because I, I've overcome all the challenges, all the fears. I thought that I'll never be able to uh succeed in the schools and um even keep me awake at night because, I mean, you start, when you um getting older, you haven't got a job. And you think you start, you feel like sometimes you feel you're useless, but you know what, this has just given me more and more confidence to say I, I'm challenging all the young people out there and everybody that doesn't have a job and everybody just wants to try and take this challenge, do it. It's not so difficult. Do it, please, um. If I can, you can, um, I think this is a a a a gift from above for us to make a few bucks for all that may be a lot of money, but at the end of the day, um, all the, all the, uh, uh, info that, that, that we were supplied with is so easy to understand, um. Join all the meetings if you can try to attend all the Zoom meetings, um, it helps a lot. Don't give up. Keep going.
Did this course help you pass your prop firm challenge, or do you now feel more confident in passing it? How?
Louise Dippenaar: I am so proud of myself to know that I've got the, I've passed this uh challenge and I feel, I feel I can run around the block and shout and tell everybody to do this. Take up the challenge and um it will just give you a lot of uh self-confidence. It will open your mind. It will clear all the unknown things. Everything is there for us. It's on paper and you've got support, you've got people all the time that's ready to wait for you to give them a call and they will be there. Uh, 24, sometimes no. I wouldn't say 24/7, but, um, like, like 7 at night, it's not easy. They work long hours, these people to give you support and, um, I appreciate every one, and I, I, I don't even wanna call them all the names because there are so many. Um, I just got back all my confidence. It feels like I can, I'm a new person.
Louise Dippenaar: This challenge was amazing. I can recommend anybody to please do it. Just do it. That's all I can say. Um, it's not so difficult. It's it's, it looks and it sounds more difficult than what it really is. Um, yes, please try and.
Would you recommend this course to other traders? If so, what makes it a must-have for someone looking to pass a prop firm challenge?
Louise Dippenaar: I would recommend this course to anybody that's interested in trading or that feels that they've got a laptop, they've got Wi Fi, they haven't got a job, they haven't got money. Try because this is not as difficult as it as it sounds and as it looks. Um, if I can do it at my place, at my age, sorry, I think anybody can do it. There's a chance for all of us.
