About This Site

Hi, my name is Edward Phelps. I’m just a guy who trades part-time to grow my savings. Why? I wanted a legal way to make money.

Last year I grew my savings 307% trading part-time. I launched this How I Trade blog back in March 2024. My goal? Share what I learn about trading with others so they can make money too.

To be clear, I know traders who make a 307% return in a week. So, I’m not at all claiming to be a trading guru. I’m very happy making 307% ROI on my trading. For perspective – say I started with $1,000, a 307% return means I would have $3,070 at the end of the year. If you think that’s okay, then subscribe and I’ll share how I do it.

Setting Expectations

Let me make this clear... Yes, I lost money on some trades. No trader wins on every trade. But professional traders win 70% of their trades (or more). 69% of my trades last year were successful. That means 31% were not. That’s the trading game. I’ll share what I learned about maintaining what I call a Trading Mindset. Join me.
