No marketing fluff. No hindsight bias. In today's episode, I open the books and walk through my actual trading performance for the 2025 trading year—the good, the bad, and the uncomfortable.
I'll break results down by account, highlight my best and worst trades, and explain why certain decisions worked while others didn't. This is the kind of review every serious trader should be doing—but most avoid.
We'll also announce the winners of the 2025 Price Forecast Competition for both the S&P 500 and Bitcoin, and discuss what those forecasts got right (and wrong) about market structure, sentiment, and timing.
If you want to learn from real execution—not theory—this episode is for you.
