FivePctEdge

Welcome to FivePctEdge. I’m not here to sell courses, flex P&Ls, or promise overnight success. This account is a public journal of every trade I take—the wins, the losses, and the lessons. My goal isn’t to hit home runs. It’s to consistently stack 5% gains over time.

In the process of building an app today. Trying to strengthen my Python skills 🫡 Hopefully I’ll get to share a preview soon later this year with yall.

Fun Fact: sometimes it’s good to not trade for a day and instead just learn from analyzing the market. See what would happen IF you would have invested and never feel left out. There are ALWAYS opportunities every single day.

90% beginners give the wrong answer 🤔 Can you solve it? 👇 Comment your answer

I think I'll be holding onto this one until i reach my goal. Again, I don't chase high numbers, just 5% gains from whatever entry point i got in at. $TII

Quick update on $TII In at: $2.71 Sell at: $2.85 Status: Still holding

Just a quick update using @tradingview charts. $TII Bought in at: $2.71 Selling at: $2.85 Trying to gain 5% Status: Still Holding

As you can see, this morning i got in at $2.71 and was aiming to get out at $2.85 (5% gain) but the market decided to take a down turn. I am still holding, but let's see how this plays out. $TII

My goal is to show that you don’t need massive wins to grow your portfolio. While many banks aim to pay around 5% per year, my strategy is to target a disciplined 5% per trade. With consistency, patience, and proper risk management, small wins can add up over time.

Fun fact: I’ve been trading for over 15 years. Early on, I chased dollar amounts and let greed drive my decisions. These days, I only chase one thing: a consistent 5%.
