How I'm Beating the Market in 2025.

I'm up 12.5% for the year so far - while the Nasdaq is down about 1% YTD. As we near the halfway mark of what's been a volatile and uncertain year, I wanted to reflect on what's helped me stay afloat this year:

Only taking best quality setups

Keeping risk small and drawdowns manageable

Ignoring the 24-hour news cycle and focusing on real economic data

Following strong trends - gold longs in April really helped carry my portfolio

If I was to start trading with $1,000 today... here's how I'd do it

Growing a small account is hard. Most people blow it trying to go all in, fingers crossed. But that's not how you build anything meaningful.

Here's how I'd approach it step by step.

Step 1: Risk management is everything.

With a small account, risk management is critical. One bad trade with too much size and you're wiped out. Some traders with small account sizes try to "punt" their account into a bigger size, gambling the whole balance. I'm highly against that. On a small account, the priority has to be on capital preservation.

Step 2: Only take your best trades.

You can't afford to take low quality setups. You need high- probability setups only the ones you've got a higher chance of success with. Be picky. That's how pros treat every dollar like it matters - because it does.

Step 3: Backtesting is free. Use it.

It costs $0 to put in time testing your system. If you want to improve, dedicate time every day - I recommend an hour to backtest and refine. The goal is to know your system cold before risking real money.

Step 4: Don't withdraw too early.

This part's big: don't cash out every time you make a little gain. If you want to grow that $1K into something more significant, compound your gains. That's how real growth happens not through constant payouts.

Step 5: Be aware of your trading costs.

Spreads, commissions, swaps - they eat away at your edge. If you're trading EX Futures stocks etc make sure you're

Trading as if your mom is observing means being able to clearly justify every trade you make. There's no room for "gut-feeling" trades when you need to explain your rationale.

By approaching trading with the mindset that anyone- especially someone who cares about you-could question your choices at any moment, you're more likely to make logical, well-considered decisions that prioritize risk management.

Want to be in the top 5% of traders?

It's not about flipping accounts or chasing massive wins. It's about consistency, risk management, and a long-term mindset.

Most traders lose because they jump in with unrealistic expectations and no real plan. But the ones who make it? Here's what they do:

Keep their risk small,

Stay systematic, and follow a repeatable system,

Backtest thoroughly: learn what doesn't work,

No revenge trading / walking away when needed,

Set realistic goals,

Focus on the bigger picture,

Anyone can hit a big win, but can you keep it? Consistency and slow & steady win in the long term.

Here's the reality about prop firms:

They are for exceptional traders only!

The dream is attractive: $500 gets you access to a "$100K account." But that's marketing. In reality, you're trading with a $10K risk buffer, and if you lose 10%, you're out no refund, no payout.

To get funded, you have to pass a challenge with tight rules and no room for error. Let's say you do that - then you still need to perform, without breaching rules, while trading real market conditions. And for the sketchier ones out there... you still have to hope the firm actually pays you out.

Here's the truth: prop firms are a tool... but only if you are an exceptional trader that simply lacks capital.

There are a small minority of traders that have massively benefited from them, but the majority of traders are trading them before they are truly qualified to be doing so.
