Meet Cristian Barbu, a Bucharest-based FundedNext Futures trader who turned early setbacks into a disciplined trading journey.
From losing every account by trusting a trading bot to building a 78% win rate at 1:1 risk-reward, Cristian shares what it really takes to become a consistent trader.
Still working as a software developer, Cristian proves that success in trading isn’t just about finding the perfect strategy. It’s about mastering yourself and trusting the process.
His advice to traders? “Trust the process, be consistent.”
