This hasn’t been my best week of trading—and that’s okay.
We’re all human. You’re not going to be at your peak every day, or even every week. Some days you’ll hesitate. Some days you’ll second-guess. Some days the market just won’t give you anything clean to work with. And some days, it’s you—not the market—that’s off.
But here’s the truth: consistency beats intensity.
Even in a week like this—where momentum is fleeting, price action is sloppy, and nothing feels ideal—I still showed up. I followed my plan. I stayed disciplined. And because of that, I’m still growing my account.
How?
Base hits.
Not home runs. Not YOLOs. Not swinging for the fences with oversized positions. I’m talking small, controlled, repeatable wins that stack up. $100 here. $80 there. Sometimes even less. But day after day, it adds up.
Take today for example.
Even a small $106.18 day becomes powerful when multiplied across five funded accounts using Topstep’s new trade copier.
$106.18 in profit. That’s all. But thanks to Topstep’s trade copier, that trade executed flawlessly across five funded accounts.
That’s $530.90 in profit today!
Each of these accounts shows the exact same $106.18 profit—different balances, same result. That’s the power of a solid strategy executed with discipline and amplified with technology.
Now let’s look at total account value across all five accounts:
- Leader Account: $9,059.02
- Follower 1: $9,281.78
- Follower 2: $9,195.52
- Follower 3: $9,251.02
- Follower 4: $9,215.06
Total Combined Balance: $46,002.40
This isn’t hype. This is the result of showing up every day, taking small base hits, and refusing to let emotions run the show.
- No revenge trades.
- No over-leveraging.
- No blowing up an account just to “get it back.”
Just small wins that compound into real growth.
This is what a real track record looks like—steady progress, small pullbacks, and consistent execution. Can you say the same about yours?
This equity curve doesn’t lie. From March through today—June 11, 2025—it shows consistent, controlled upward progress. And remember, this is just one account. Multiply that by five, and this becomes a serious compounder.
So here’s the question:
What does your equity curve look like?
Don’t talk about what you’ll do “someday.”
Don’t justify the dip in your account with “I’m still learning.”
Don’t lie to yourself.
Pull it up. Look at it. Own it.
If your equity curve doesn’t look like this—rising with small, manageable setbacks—you shouldn’t be risking real money. Period.
Now think about this:
If you had an extra $530.90 in your bank account today, what would you do with it?
- Cover a bill?
- Take your family out to dinner?
- Put it toward something that matters?
And if you had $46,000+ in combined trading accounts built up from consistent small wins, how much less pressure would you feel every day?
This blog isn’t about bragging. It’s about truth.
Every day, I post this journey. Some days I’m sharp. Some days I’m not. But I stay emotionally in control. I stick to my edge. And I keep moving forward.
You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be disciplined.
That’s the edge.
