A new interview released by The5%ers puts the spotlight on Can, a 24-year-old trader from Turkey who has grown a $150,000 funded account while collecting $34,003 in payouts. His story moves beyond performance metrics, tracing a path shaped by loss, rebuilding, and gradual precision in the markets.
Can entered trading during the pandemic, starting with spot crypto before moving into leveraged futures. Early confidence quickly collapsed when a single trade wiped out his entire account in minutes. That experience pushed him out of impulsive trading and into a long phase of study, experimentation, and rebuilding from scratch.
His current approach blends Order Flow with Price Action, built around one core idea: align with market direction rather than resist it. The system he describes follows a structured routine, reading higher-timeframe flow, identifying key levels, and executing with defined risk. Over time, this approach has improved his consistency, with his win rate now ranging between 55% and 70%.
Rather than chasing aggressive returns, Can emphasizes control. His risk model adapts across account stages, starting higher during evaluation phases and tightening once funded. The focus, he explains, is on preserving capital while allowing gains to accumulate steadily.
Away from trading, his personal life added further pressure. The 2023 earthquake in Turkey left his family without a home, forcing him to balance survival with trading ambitions. According to the interview, earnings from prop trading played a direct role in helping his family recover and rebuild.
He also points to proprietary firms as a turning point in his journey. The structured environment, fixed rules, and access to capital helped refine his discipline. Speaking about The5%ers, he highlighted stable conditions and payout reliability as factors that supported his growth.
