Starting a public challenge today. $15,000 to $100,000 in 18 months. Real money, my own account, every position posted as it goes on, every exit posted as it comes off. The number is the number. The point is not the number.
The math first, because it is the part nobody likes saying out loud. $15k to $100k is a 567% return. That works out to roughly 14% compounded per month, or one 6x winner, or three 2.5x winners stacked clean. The S&P does 10% in a good year. The target is roughly 50x harder than the index. If I told you the base case was hitting it, I would be lying to you and to myself.
The honest framing is different. The base case is that I get to $40k to $60k, which is already a 3-4x and would beat almost every fund on the planet over the same window. The bull case is that two or three asymmetric small-cap setups print and the curve bends. The bear case is that I get chopped up in two bad earnings prints and end the run at $8k, write the post-mortem in public, and the account becomes a case study in what not to do. All three outcomes are useful to whoever is reading.
The reason to post any of it is simple. The actual edge in this market is not having access to better information. It is having the discipline to act on the information you do have, the patience to wait for setups that pay you to take the risk, and the honesty to cut a position when the thesis breaks rather than when the price hurts. Those three things are completely invisible until you put them in public. The account is the commitment device.
What you will see here:
Deep dives when a new ticker enters the book. Full read of the business, the catalyst on the calendar, the three to five validators that need to confirm for the thesis to compound, the price level where I cut, and the probability-weighted math behind the position size. Same structure every time so the track record stays comparable over months.
Exit notes when a position closes. Win, loss, or "thesis broke before the price did." The losses get the same airtime as the wins. Maybe more. The mistakes are where the work product actually compounds for anyone reading.
Earnings reactions for covered names, within 24 hours of the print. Not a recap of the headline. The read.
The occasional audit of a fintwit account whose calls I have been tracking quietly for months. Whose signal compounds, whose noise rounds to zero. Names included. The point is not to dunk. The point is to make the difference visible.
What you will not see: signals, alerts, "buy now at this level," paid groups, courses, options shilling, crypto, anonymous shitposting, engagement bait. If a post would embarrass a senior PM reading it cold, it does not go up. That filter alone removes 90% of the fintwit timeline.
The universe. Small and mid caps where size and patience are the actual moats. US small caps, Brazilian small caps where most of fintwit has no coverage, the occasional UK or Australian name when the geology or the geopolitics forces the trade there. No mega caps unless there is a setup the size investors are missing. No crypto.
The portfolio shape. 8 to 12 positions at any time, 6 to 8 percent per name, average hold around 90 days. 80 percent of the book in shares, up to 20 percent in defined-risk long-dated options on setups where the structure is asymmetric and the premium pays for the time. Hard stop on every share position, no exception. Options sized to the loss tolerance, not the price target, and never margined. One cap on the account: any drawdown of more than 25 percent from peak triggers a forced 30-day pause, no new entries, full audit of every position, public write-up of what broke.
The way I will be honest about timing. I do not post a position before it is executed. Exit notes lag the actual exit by hours, not seconds. Nothing on this account is front-runnable, and nothing on this account is a call to action for anyone else. The account is a log of my own decisions, audited in public, with the math shown.
First name drops in the next 24 hours. Rare earth deposit in Brazil, listed in Australia, valued in US dollars. The setup that hooked me: the project literally next door sold for 10x the current market cap eighteen months ago, the final feasibility study lands in June, and the geopolitical backdrop on critical minerals is doing real work on the entire sector. Small position, defined risk, calendar catalyst. The exact kind of asymmetry the challenge needs to compound from.
If you want to follow without committing to anything, the account is here for the full 18 months. If you want to use it as a sparring partner for your own book, the deep dives publish the kill conditions before they fire, so the work is auditable in real time. If you want signals or shortcuts, this is the wrong account.
555 days. The clock starts today.
Not advice. Just how I am sizing my own book in public.
