Upscale | News

📹 Our first interview with a prop trader from Brazil!

Meet Morty – a developer, memecoin enthusiast, and now a prop trader from sunny Brazil.

He saw trading as a way to stand on his own two feet and make a living doing what he loved.

“I used to be constantly stressed because I literally had to sit at my computer 24/7, looking for the latest news.”

Morty changed his approach: he moved into prop trading and started doing his own market analysis. He got funded in less than two weeks, though he admits he got lucky with his first trades.

Two weeks later, he received his first $900 payout. By then, he’d already moved out of his parents’ home:

“Prop trading is great. It literally pays my bills.”

In under three months with Upscale, Morty received around $2,100 in payouts.

How does Morty evaluate his trade ideas, and why does he close half his position? Find out in our latest interview 👇

P.S. After hearing about his payouts, even Morty’s dad wanted to give prop trading a try! 🤟

📹 From scrolling TikTok to $1,086 in profit

Meet Dmitry. Some trading videos popped up on his TikTok feed. He started learning, gave prop trading a shot, and landed his first payouts.

So far, so good. Just keep doing what works. Preferably faster.

But the market had other plans. Price went sideways: stop-outs, breakeven trades, small wins.

His patience wore thin. His risk per trade crept up. Revenge trading kicked in.

Prop firm rules started getting on his nerves, and his hard-earned profits were on the line...

How did Dmitry learn to keep his emotions in check and reach $1,086 in profit? And after trying several prop firms, why did he choose Upscale? 👇

📹 +$863 payout, life in Vietnam, and the two-loss rule

Meet Nick. He’s been trading since 2018.

He used to chase every last dollar the market had to offer. Now, his goal is different: never let one bad day cost him the entire account.

That’s why his rules are strict:

😫 Two losses – and the terminal stays closed until the next day

📉 Risk per trade – around 0.5–1%

💰 Risk-to-reward ratio – 1:3

📈 Profits are taken in stages, then the stop is moved to breakeven

Today, Nick withdrew $863 from Upscale

In the new video, he breaks down his system using real trades and his AI report: where he enters, when he takes profit, and the exact moment discipline starts giving way to tilt.

He also gives an unfiltered comparison of Upscale and other prop firms – from news trading and transparent rules to having the trading terminal right inside Telegram.

📈 Six traders on NZD made more than sixteen traders on BTC

The biggest takeaway from yesterday’s closed tournament: market selection matters almost as much as entry accuracy.

🔥 5 hours of trading, 3,000 USDT, and $500K in accounts were up for grabs. Here’s where traders captured the biggest moves:

• BTC/USD – the most popular market of the tournament, chosen by 16 traders.

• But NZD/USD outperformed it in profits – just 6 traders closed positions with a combined +$3.4K.

• XAU/USD – the most active instrument: 60 closed positions and +$2.2K in total profit.

• The entire top 3 by profit came from RWA markets: NZD, XAU, and EUR.

Crypto isn’t the only place to find volatility. Traders who know how to use the full market landscape have more opportunities to win.

🤖 Review your trades with AI

AI is everywhere today: generating content, writing setups, building trading bots, and even trying to trade on its own.

In one recent experiment, six AI models were given $10K each to trade. Spoiler – some of them actually made money.

As AI becomes a serious tool for modern traders, the real question is: how do you get actual value from it?

🫡 So we built an AI assistant into Upscale

Our AI doesn’t trade for you. It reviews your trading with you.

The AI report analyzes your full trading history, identifies the 3 key patterns that had the biggest impact on your results, and gives you a specific action plan for each one.

Not a vague “be more disciplined,” but the actual facts: where your risk changes, which decisions keep repeating, and what you can improve.

🥇 Upscale traders have already generated 547 AI reports

You can get yours for free after your account is closed – the analysis takes less than a minute.

AI doesn’t make traders irrelevant. It makes strong traders even stronger.

🤝 Have you tried the AI report yet?

🔥 - yep, great tool
🗿 - didn’t know about it, now I’ll try it
🚀 - I want the AI report before my account closes

💰 Upscale traders withdrew $26,215 this week

And $2,635,265 in total so far.

When you look at a number like that, it can feel like just one big figure. But behind it are hundreds of individual moments: passing the challenge, staying disciplined, waiting for the right entry, closing the trade, and finally withdrawing the profit.

⭐️ On the cards - this week’s top 5 payouts

One trader even managed to withdraw profits twice in just 3 days.

And there’s one thing we especially like about this: you don’t have to take our word for it. Every payout can be verified onchain - including the amount, date, and wallet address. It’s all available at upscale.trade.

💡 And a little spoiler for tomorrow

We’re bringing back one of your favorite promos. So if you’ve been thinking about trying Upscale, this might be the perfect time.

📹 This is Artem. Air traffic controller. He failed a challenge

Alright. If every trader’s story ended with their first failed account, this series would be pretty short.

At work, Artem watches planes. In his free time - the market.

"Sometimes I wake up between shifts when important news drops, check it - looks neutral - and go back to sleep."

Staying just as calm about his own trades took a little longer.

After several failed attempts at other prop firms, he went back to demo trading, reviewed his mistakes, and built a more systematic approach.

🫡 Today, Artem has a 71% win rate and his first 990 USDT payout from Upscale.

How an air traffic controller learned to manage his own risk, where trading signals fit into his strategy, and whether they’re worth trusting - in our new interview.
