About a year and a half ago, I started with an account of roughly $5,000.
Through a lot of learning, mistakes, patience, and discipline, that account has grown to around $100,000.
I swing traded names like HIMS, EOS, Palantir, Tesla, and others by trying to thoughtfully combine:
• What companies were signaling through earnings and guidance
• The broader macro environment and market conditions
• Basic technical analysis to help with timing and risk
• Focusing only on a few high-conviction ideas at a time
The biggest lesson wasn’t about picking stocks — it was about building a process and sticking to it.
I’m not here to tell anyone what to buy or sell.
I want to share my story, the lessons I’ve learned, and just as importantly, the mistakes I’ve made — while continuing to learn and improve along the way.
My goal by the end of this year is to grow the account to $200,000.
@jamierkennedy Beautarholt is the one I’ve been looking at is it worth it? Also do you have any idea when I should tee off in November. And are their rentals any good?
I’ve yet to meet a person who wouldn’t go back and buy BTC at $16k in 2022 or $3k in 2018. Why didn’t they pull the trigger then?
Because it’s psychologically hard for most. That’s it. That’s always the answer
@LizardWizardBTC So the thesis was just based on volatility, power law, being overbought etc? I’m still on the other side on your 80$ MSTR this year bet. I sold 6 put contracts at 50$ strike so if it gets exercised I’ll be holding a lot more happily. Do you base most of your stuff on powe law?
