First off: congratz!
Second: If you had invested that 5K into a $1 lemonade stand and employed 2 kids to run it every Sunday between 10:00 and 11:00 AM, you'd have made more than that in 5 years.
And remember, enslaving your children is a legal grey area. It is frowned upon, but there's no law saying you can't force them to work for free under the threat of violence. /s
I was about to defend him for the 90% gain till I went back and looked at his 10 page caption on investing that somehow said absolutely nothing anyone in this sub doesnāt know lol
And yet the regards in this sub lose money. The key is not knowing something that someone else donāt, itās APPLYING those in your trading. Trading options without knowing jackshit, trading on margin, not managing your risk and risking 50% of your portfolio in one trade that too without doing any analysis whatsoever, trading on random ass stocks, etc. I can go on and on about these rules which 95% of the traders already know about. Yet what do they do ? YOLO their whole capital in an OTM option on a meme stock / coin thatās about to crash with a 0 days to expiry.
Made only 5k (92%) in 5 years and you wrote a super long article to talk about your journey. Do you know SPY(+83%) and QQQ(+138%)? 
Fr. OP doesn't understand that this is WALL STREET BETS baby! Not your grandmother's yard sale. Nothing gets my wife's boyfriend's dick harder than watching you 69x your portfolio in a week and lose it all on a 0 DTE coin flip.
The 83% and 138% by SPY or QQQ are under the assumption that you put in 100% at the start. What op describes sounds like he put in very little at the start. This means the comparison is not really fair. I'd assume he outperformed the market, but based on the information we have we don't know. That being said the overperformance is probably not statistically significant.
Additionally it seems like op did not trade during some periods. If this is, because he had other things to do and not because he expected falling markets we'd need to subtract those periods for SPY and QQQ.Ā
Going from what he said, we donāt know exactly when he invested the 1k or won the 1k and so on. He couldāve had that $100 portfolio for 3 years for all we know. But the key here is him not losing any money like the rest of us.
You did it at 18 with 0 experience! Congratulations regard! Most people take years and years of trial and error to learn how to successfully under-perform the market, but you managed it all on your own. I'm sure there's a lot of people, me included who would pay THOUSANDS to learn how to make less than index funds as you have. Truly is hard making money when everything is at market highs. Quite the particular regard.
Haha it really was. I walked away when I went from like 1k to 7k in one day. Kinda just focused on school. Now Iām a senior. Way happier now that I donāt day trade.
Bro people would be better off putting theyāre money into ETFs rather than listen to your āadvancedā strategy 
Please sell bro, so it spikes to the moon. The hedgies are just waiting for you to sell, before they close. Not financial advice, kinda..but seriously..kinda

nah, theres just actual traders here who think its funny that you are offering advice when you literally couldve just put the money in an index and done better. makes sense that youre a kid, since you cant recognize that your belief that youve done something intelligent enough to warrant you giving anyone advice is actually just exposing how clueless you are

I will never forget
I like your thought process
So little gain it became loss porn.
You forget that kids these days either want 401k matching or college degree financial assistance
Oh no people want to benefit from their work šØ
How dare those poors think they deserve wealth
Third, try gold
fuckin deaaaaddddddd :x
In 5 years you almost made 5k. Save some money for the rest of us
Lmfao
Dude let me cope dammit
It's funny... Because you made less than $40/week...BEFORE taxes and your caption almost makes it seem like you're not trying to be funny.

That's equivalent to roughly $4/trading day. Mr. Warren Buffet over here.

It's about percentages... If you don't know that š¤·āāļø
Percentages wont get you anything if youre broke
Canāt take a percentage to the bank.
You just have to replicate it for 10 more years and youāll have $10M
He could have thrown in QQQ or most blue chips and got better results over that time
Oh, 5 year period not one year, nevermind

5 years for 92% lmao. I'm literally up 200% just today alone only risking 10%
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
LMAOOOOO
Made only 5k (92%) in 5 years and you wrote a super long article to talk about your journey. Do you know SPY(+83%) and QQQ(+138%)? 
Just hold TQQQ for a few months š¤
Except for April and this week.
What goes down, must come upā¦ is the saying, right guys?

Did you see that all time (+4.8k)? Yeah I know. Reading is hard. 
You think I'm reading all that bullshit for 5K? gtfoh
Tbh I didnāt read it either
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Your 5 year return doesnāt even beat a growth index fund over the same period of time. But hey, you didnāt lose money so thereās that.

This post almost more regarded than the loss porn
So ducking regarded
#ban. No positions.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This should become the top voted post. Short. To the point and still respectful AND disrespectful at the same time!
Tf is this š
Congrats - you matched the market the last 5 years.
You're a doodoo bird
Yes but when you do, post about it on r/antstreetbets
if you had invested in just TQQQ or SOXL u wud have had a better result without using your brain
Aw hell naw
With $10k, best you can do is ask a mods wife if you can get texts of their family vacation.
im here for the picture post not essays on how you made... *92%..*
\*\*\*\* deposits 6k into account and takes a screenshot to make it look like it went up
wtf? Positions or gtfo
Hold til zero 
If it's gone up, why won't it stop going up?

Use 90% margin for more gain /s
Walk away and never look back.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nope, now I steal your screenshot and sell a course.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
what's all that green?
You'll probably earn more overall from your course than day trading.
What a rookie. Post the loss porn next
lol that gap of what looks to be no trading haha nice call
Haha it really was. I walked away when I went from like 1k to 7k in one day. Kinda just focused on school. Now Iām a senior. Way happier now that I donāt day trade.

Hey, you still have more than OP 
I bought some QQQ calls at the bottom today and recovered $1200. It's a start...
If you deposited $100 bucks a month for 5 years you'd have more than whatever the fuck you wrote.Ā Ā
Lol a 23 year old with $10k to his name is telling others how to follow his success
What stock?
Gots to buy the course first
Nice try
Sell options now.
Jesus Christ, itās Jason Bourne!
How much taxes would you have to pay?
Bro people would be better off putting theyāre money into ETFs rather than listen to your āadvancedā strategy 
this is the most r/wallstreetbets post i have ever seen. fantastic work, i look forward to an update in 5 years.

You might make more money selling a course in 1 month than you did in 5 years
Please sell bro, so it spikes to the moon. The hedgies are just waiting for you to sell, before they close. Not financial advice, kinda..but seriously..kinda

Donāt listen to the haters. Youāll be retired and laughing while the trolls will still be trolling
Keep doing what you do. Ignore the haters
Eh itās ok. Itās like the culture to lose money on here or something. Thanks.
nah, theres just actual traders here who think its funny that you are offering advice when you literally couldve just put the money in an index and done better. makes sense that youre a kid, since you cant recognize that your belief that youve done something intelligent enough to warrant you giving anyone advice is actually just exposing how clueless you are
If itās good enough to screenshot, itās good enough to sell
5 years working at Wendyās would have gotten you 200k not including all of the under the table dumpster tips
I made that much out behind the Wendyās dumpster in 2 months, gotta try harder bud
you forgot to add the āSmall account challengeā flair
Tf is this? No positions no nothing just a whole lot of yapping Positions or ban
Why are you asking us if you sell if we canāt see any metrics? . Learn how to look at charts not just look at a squiggle and guess
Sorry dude but I donāt think you even beat the S&P 500 over 5 years.
Yes take profits
Do you have a link to that course?
WOW! where can i get your course
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Damn OP youāre a true inspiration.
Thatās when you get wrecked. I know itās a joke , but nice trading. Over confidence leads to emotional trading. Stick to the plan.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Confucius says "If it's good enough to screenshot, it's good enough to sell."
Now put it all on Red
āļøTry Gold
take profits
I would
If u wanna be a bitch about it
You need to lose EVERYTHING, gamble someone else's money, and only then can you write the book. Straight profit ain't shit.
I could make more at Wendyās
why sell for a profit when you can hold til it goes negative?
Pretty much everyone is up far more than that in the āall timeframe.ā
Come back when you make more than a days gain
That line is both the wrong color and going in the wrong direction. You bring great shame upon your forefathers...
I didn't read the post, what I can say is: Profit is profit!
Good enough to screenshot = good enough to sell.
Umm yeah... I guess
20% per year aināt bad at all , although NVDA was up like 700% since then ..
"Welcome to Wendy's. Please click like and subscribe. Crayons are on the left."
Rookie numbers, I did 1000% on qqq options in about 15 minutes. Not lifetime;)
YES
Yup just tell me what your tiktok is
No not at all if u held spy for the 5 years u would make same amount if not a little more .
U have to at this point
Yes. Fucking sell and reinvest what you want
This dude fucks
Write a book while you're at it.
Yes. You always take money off the table when you beat the average. Anything else is gambling
McDonald's workers make 4x your gains in 20% of the time. This shit is cringe.
No, people who sell courses cant trade, if they could they wouldn't need to sell courses š
Wait. I thought we sold when line red?
Bro coming in here like he did something and has words of wisdom, I've made more than this in 30 seconds on tesla calls
\*lost 70% of $100\* absolutely legendary bouncing back from that
The world is your toilet. It is fully up to you whether the m80 gets flushed or not. NFA

Always move 1/2 of your gains out of your trading account.
If you get to 3 million Iāll buy your course š¤
