Let that sink in. I made $856.60 today across five Topstep funded accounts. Since March, I’ve made $48,847.10. And here’s the kicker — my win rate is only 54%.
So how is that possible?
The answer is simple: I don’t trade based on daily bias. I follow a rule-based strategy that flips with the market, not my emotions. And today was the perfect reminder of why that matters.
???? The Headlines Said “Short” — The Market Said “Long”
I started the morning with what looked like a textbook short setup on MNQU. The headlines were bearish. I was short. I was close to my daily goal.
Then the market flipped.
And if I had clung to my bias — like I know many of you did — I would’ve gotten run over. But I didn’t. Because my 2-minute BOS strategy told me to change direction. So I did.
Started short based on headlines — flipped long when my 2-minute BOS strategy signaled the change. That pivot kept the day green.
???? Proof: One Funded Account, $171.32 Profit
This is the P&L from my Topstep XFA Leader account. One account. One green day. Times five accounts.
$171.32 profit today on just one account — multiplied by five accounts, that’s how small risk creates real freedom.
???? From Zero to $9,546.66 — Equity Curve Since March
This strategy didn’t start with a lucky trade. It started with a plan. Since March, I’ve grown this account from zero to nearly $10K — and I’ve done it with no boom-and-bust behavior.
Slow and steady since March. If your equity curve looks like a heart monitor, it’s time to fix your strategy.
???? Four Follower Accounts. Same Day. Same Results.
Every single one of my funded accounts follows the same trades, in real time. No variation. No guesswork. Just execution.
Follower Account #1:
Same trades. Same result. $171.32 profit. $9,769.42 balance.
Follower Account #2:
$171.32 again. Strategy works when you trust it — and duplicate it.
Follower Account #3:
Same strategy, same execution, same green result — again.
Follower Account #4:
That’s 5-for-5 today. Total: $856.60 profit with minimal risk.
???? What If Your System Can’t Flip Sides?
Here’s a question for you:
If your strategy can’t flip directions mid-session, is it even a strategy?
Because if I had held on to my bearish bias today, I would’ve been deep red. That’s what happens to so many traders — they get attached to a narrative. But the market doesn’t care about your opinion.
I’ve seen it. I’ve done it.
But not anymore.
???? Final Thought: 54% Win Rate. Nearly $50K Profit.
Take a look at this:
54% win rate. $9,769.42 in profit. Multiply by five accounts — over $48,000 since March.
I’m not winning 80% of the time. I’m not swinging for $5,000 home runs. I’m winning slightly more than half the time — and the math still works.
Why? Because I take small risks. I follow my rules. And most importantly: I listen to what the market is telling me.
That’s how I made $856.60 today. That’s how I’ve made $48,847.10 since March. That’s how you keep the 9 to 5 away.
