This is not a strategy I invented. This is the TCPH Trading Sheet plan, run by my trading community. The math says $200 becomes $101,074.20 after 31 trading days if I hit a daily P&L target that compounds at 25% per day.
The math checks out. The execution is on me.
I'm putting this on the internet because there's no better accountability than letting people watch. If I miss, you'll see it. If I hit it, you'll see that too. Infinite upside, little to no downside.
The Numbers
Each day's P&L target compounds at 25% over the previous day. Day 1 target is $25 on a $200 balance — small, achievable, no heroics. Day 31 target is $20,194 on a balance of $80,879 — still 25% of the day's starting capital, just a much bigger dollar amount.
| Day | Daily Target | Expected Balance | Risk @ 1:2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | $25 | $225 | $12.50 |
| 7 | $95 | $577 | $48 |
| 14 | $455 | $2,374 | $228 |
| 21 | $1,735 | $8,774 | $868 |
| 28 | $10,340 | $51,799 | $5,170 |
| 31 | $20,195 | $101,074 | $10,098 |
The risk column is what scares people. By Day 31 I'm risking ten grand on a single trade. But it's still the same percentage of my account as Day 1's $12.50 risk. The math is consistent. Only the dollar amount feels different — and that's a discipline test, not a math problem.
My Strategy
I trade forex on a KVB MT5 Classic account with 1000:1 leverage. The actual setups come from the Stroke strategy — TCPH's price-action playbook. POIs (points of interest) marked the night before, confirmation entries during session, no chasing.
The four pillars
- 4 trading opportunities per day. The structure of the strategy gives me up to four clean setups across the trading day. I don't need all four. One clean win is enough.
- A+ prepared setups only. If I didn't mark it the night before, I don't trade it. Marginal setups are the killer.
- Fixed 1:2 risk-to-reward. Every single trade. I risk one to make two. No exceptions, no widening the stop to make a setup fit.
- Risk = Target × 0.5. Because R:R is 1:2, hitting the day's target on a single win means risking exactly half the target. This auto-scales with the account.
Maximum stop-loss distance is 80 points. If price action requires wider, I skip. Lot size formula: Risk $ / SL points / 100.
The Hard Rules
These are non-negotiable. Memorized. Drilled. The plan dies the moment I bend any of them.
Loss Recovery Logic
The TCPH community offers two official options for handling losses: strict catch-up (next trade targets loss + day's target on one shot) and lenient (just continue from the lower balance). Strict catch-up creates a Martingale spiral — two losses in a row force a 40% of capital trade. That's how accounts blow up.
I'm running a third path. Recover-first, same-day.
Lose? Recover the loss first. Then go back to chasing the day's target.
The 4-opportunity structure of the strategy gives me the room to do this without crossing days. Here's the logic:
- Lose attempt 1. The next opportunity becomes a recovery trade only. Target = exact loss amount. Risk = loss ÷ 2.
- Win the recovery. Balance is back to baseline. The next opportunity retries the day's original target.
- Lose the recovery. Next opportunity's recovery target = new cumulative loss. Don't compound losses into the original day target.
- 3 consecutive losses → stop. The hard rule kicks in. Day done. ~28% drawdown locked, no further damage.
This caps risk on every trade. After 2 losses in a row, the next trade is ~11% of the account, not 40%. After 3 losses, it's ~19% — and that's where I stop.
Decision Tree per Day
This is the actual decision flow I'm running every trading day. Memorized. No improvisation.
Two hard branches always end with STOP. The whole structure is designed so I can't trade my way into a hole I can't climb out of the next day.
Three Valid End-States
Every trading day ends in one of these four outcomes. There is no "kept trading until I felt good." There is no "doubled down to chase yesterday." Each day is a closed book.
What Happens If I Lose
Honest math, because pretending the bad days won't come is how plans fall apart.
Assume a 70% win rate on prepared setups (which roughly matches my historical data on A+ setups). The day distribution looks like this:
| Outcome | Probability | Expected per 31 days |
|---|---|---|
| Hit target on attempt 1 | ~70% | 22 days |
| Hit target after 1 loss | ~21% | 6-7 days |
| Hit target after 2 losses | ~6% | 2 days |
| Stop day (3 losses) | ~3% | ~1 day |
Roughly 1 stop-day per 31. That stop-day costs ~28% of capital and ~3 days of schedule slip. The plan absorbs it. Worst realistic case: 31 days becomes 34-37. Best case: 31 days exactly, $100K hit.
What does not happen: the account doesn't blow up. The recover-first logic and the 3-loss circuit breaker make the math survivable. That's the whole point.
Why I'm Sharing This
Three reasons.
One — extreme accountability. The myfxbook account is public. Every trade tracked. There's no hiding a bad week. That pressure is exactly what I need.
Two — proof of concept. A lot of people in our community have a goal like this. None of us do it in public. I want to show what disciplined execution looks like — wins and losses both. If I make it, the playbook is replicable. If I don't, the lessons are still real.
Three — for my future family and my parents. I'm 25. Mga magulang ko hindi na bumabata. If trading can compound my way out of dependency on a single income stream, that's freedom for them too. Not a fantasy. A path.
Worst case I don't hit 31 days. I hit 60. Or 90. The destination doesn't change. Only the timeline.
Infinite upside. Little to no downside.
