About this listen
Welcome to another Trade The Pool funded trader interview. Today, Michael sits down with Cade, a FLEX $25,000 funded trader from the USA!
Cade shares how he transitioned from his personal brokerage into a prop firm account using Trade The Pool’s limited-risk trading platform.
He breaks down his approach to short-selling penny stocks, timing post-4:00 setups, and using level 2 data to spot high-probability trades.

Cade started trading seven years ago and became fully self-employed five years. Over time, he shifted his focus to shorting sub $1 penny stocks, fine-tuning his approach through years of studying market patterns and tracking former runners showing weakness. The Trade The Pool evaluation process required adjustments, but he stayed determined, pushing through the hurdles and fine-tuning his execution.
By improving his risk management, adapting to the firm’s rules, and sticking to his well-tested strategies, he successfully passed the 25K FLEX Challenge.
