The capital problem was never real.
Prop firms solved it years ago. You put up $200, you prove you can trade, and they fund you with accounts most people will never see in their bank account.
I’ve taken $15k payouts from accounts I got access to for the price of a dinner out.
The only thing standing between you and a funded account right now is the evaluation. That’s it. No investors, no savings, no “building up capital for years.” Just a skill test with a payout on the other side.
If you’re still waiting until you “have enough money” to start, you’re not waiting on money. You’re waiting on yourself.
