How It Works

01

Paper Portfolio

We trade a simulated $100K account — every decision is public, every thesis is explained. Set up your own and follow along.

02

Weekly Episodes

Every week a new video breaks down what moved, what didn't, and what we're watching next. No sponsored picks. No pretending losses didn't happen.

03

Live Tracker

The portfolio page updates with live prices so you always know where we stand between episodes.

What we actually use

The Psychology of Money

Morgan Housel on why people panic-sell. The reminder we come back to when a week goes against us.

The Intelligent Investor

Benjamin Graham's margin of safety — the framework behind how we size a thesis, not a hot take.

A trading journal notebook

Every decision written down before the market opens. If it isn't in the journal, it didn't happen.

A second monitor

Charts on one screen, the thesis on the other. Nothing fancy — just room to think.
