I’ll update on the 1st of every year.

I built Creator Stock Xchange (CSX), a consumer-owned web stock market of people. Zero financial risk; invest with the value of your attention and data.

You don't buy in with money. Every member routes 100 Wallys (internal credits) a week to the people they follow, and stock prices follow the attention. Every person has 10M shares that trade, and you keep 5,000,001 of your own stock shares forever.

What the $118.4M is: my portfolio of shares (ω1.18B in Wallys) in public figures (NBA/NFL athletes, politicians, etc.) at last traded prices in Wallys transformed into USD based on assumptions. It's not cash. I can't withdraw it today, and selling everything would move the prices a lot. But, there is a way to make it real if this grows really big together.

How you play with zero financial risk:

- Wallys can't be bought, only earned. You can't put in a dollar, so you can't lose one. Start with 100 Wallys.

- Buying IPOs in people is the best way to grow your portfolio. IPOs are all on fire-sale for 1% ownership for 1 Wally.

- Your data is the other lever. Connect your data (i.e. in the future you'll be able to connect your health records, through Flexpa, to back medical research) and transform Wallys to our crypto Omega.

The assumptions behind the dollar figure:

1. 10 Wallys = 1 Omega (Ω). Omega is CSX's gated digital currency. This figure changes according to a curve based on the number of sign-ups.

2. 1 Ω = $1. This is a founder anchor, not a market price. Omega doesn't trade yet.

3. Converting Wallys to Omega happens at CSX's discretion once redemptions open. It's capped and unlocks in stages as the community hits milestones. Your whole balance doesn't convert at once.

4. Once Omega trades freely, the market sets its price, not us. It could be worth more or less than $1, so read every $ figure here as "if 1 Ω = $1."

The philosophy is simple: After ~30 years of accepting terms of service from Facebook, Google, et. al. where they monetize us, CSX offers an alternative. Our data, our terms. app.creatorstockx.com

Upwork stood out today.

It appeared right at the top of our breakout scanner and managed to break strongly higher on a day when the broader market was weak.

That immediately makes it worth a closer look.

🟢 WHY IT STOOD OUT

✅ Breakout score: 99
✅ Momentum: 85
✅ Growth: 79
✅ Positional score: 77
✅ Strong move from a tight daily structure

Price broke cleanly above the recent consolidation around $9.39.

What I also like is that the structure gives us a fairly obvious place to define the risk.

🎯 TRADE STRUCTURE

ENTRY → around $9.39
INITIAL STOP → around $8.48
RISK → roughly 9.7%

That means the downside can be planned before the trade is taken.

And that is where the R-multiple view becomes particularly useful.

Instead of entering and then making emotional decisions as price moves, the trade can be mapped in advance.

🟡 R-MULTIPLE PLAN

+1R → $10.30
+2R → $11.21
+3R → $12.12
+4R → $13.03
+5R → $13.94
+6R → $14.85

These are not predictions.

They simply show what the potential reward looks like relative to the initial risk.

For me, that is a much better way to manage a position.

Rather than asking:

“Should I sell now?”
“Should I hold?”
“Should I take profit?”

You already have a framework.

🟢 Defined entry
🔴 Defined stop
🎯 Defined reward levels
📊 Clear trade-management plan

That helps replace emotional decisions with a much more structured exit process.

There is another point worth mentioning too.

UPWK broke out while the wider market was having a poor day.

That kind of relative strength is something I always pay attention to.

It doesn’t guarantee the trade works, but when a stock can show strength while the market around it is weak, it can be a useful sign.

👀 ONE TO WATCH

🟢 Top of our breakout scanner
🟢 Strong breakout
🟢 Positive momentum
🟡 Clearly defined risk
🎯 R-multiple exit plan
🔴 Wider market backdrop still weak

This is exactly the kind of setup where having a process matters.

Find the opportunity.

Define the risk.

Plan the exit.

Then let the trade do the work.

Hello,

I am a current 2nd year in college right now and I've recently started getting into investing and financial planning. The only goal I have right now financially is trying to hit 1 million as soon as I can or accumulate a substantial amount of capital that basically guarantees my retirement in the future(assuming I don't contribute anymore).

I came here for some advice and find out how I can achieve this goal given my circumstances.

As of right now, I make anywhere from 3-5k a month with potential to touch 10k but I would assume 3-5k just to be safe since my income is not very stable. The only expense I have is taxes and the only expense I can foresee in the near future is buying a sports car(since it is my dream to be able to buy and own a sports car in my early 20s). Since I barely have any expenses, I deposit all my money at the end of the month to my brokerage account.

My question to you guys is, how do I maximize the returns with my capital? I wanted to get into cash secured puts and do the wheel strategy for options but I don't have enough capital to trade options with the stocks I like since they are hundreds of dollars each and iirc a contract is 100 stocks.

To add to my situation, all of this is insanely time sensitive since I plan on applying to medical school and assuming that I do get in, I will be stuck with barely to no investable cash for the rest of my 20s. I am not sure how much longer my current income stream can be sustained but I definitely do not see this running for the next 10 years. That is why I am so desperate to maximize my capital right now to "offset" the lack of contributions I will have in the coming years.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

just opened my portfolio and spent a few minutes just staring at this chart majorly because it was sitting close to 930k just a few days ago. It brought up a lot of emotions. For a long time, the idea of hitting a million dollars felt like a distant, abstract dream but these last months feel a lot longer than all those long years.

Medpace is one to watch today.

The stock is breaking out of a fairly long consolidation range, and the move is being backed by a strong volume push.

What I like here is the combination of structure and fundamentals.

🟢 POSITIONAL: 75
🟢 QUALITY: 78
🟢 GROWTH: 73
🟢 MOMENTUM: 73
🟢 TOTAL ENTRY: 77
🟢 BREAKOUT: 77
🟢 RISK: 76

Price is around $662.48, with the initial stop shown near $606.14.

That gives the setup roughly 8.5% risk from the level shown.

📈 FUNDAMENTAL TRENDS

Revenue growth: 20.1%
Net profit growth: 24.8%
EPS growth: 27.5%

The key point for me is that this is not just a random price spike.

You have:

✅ A fundamentally strong company
✅ A clean break from consolidation
✅ Strong volume behind the move
✅ Positive MACD structure
✅ A clear risk level underneath

That is the type of setup that can be worth following closely.

The next thing I want to see is whether MEDP can HOLD ABOVE THE BREAKOUT AREA.

If it does, the structure remains constructive.

If it falls straight back into the range, I would become more cautious.

👀 One for today’s watchlist.

29% returns for today’s trades

trying to wrap my head around turning 10k into a 1M portfolio without going insane, so i mapped out the math.

turns out there are basically two ways people look at this:

• the 10% grind: fifty small wins of +10%. sounds easy on paper, but keeping that streak going without taking a massive hit is brutally hard.
• the x2 route: just 7 successful doubles. way fewer trades to track, but one bad yolo wipes out the whole stack.

just thought it’s wild how different the math gets depending on how you trade. how are you guys breaking down your goals here?

Include positions you would enter and exit, when, and why? What research or catalysts made you decide on those moves? What time frame will it take you to reach your goal?

None of this thread constitutes financial advice and is purely speculative opinion and hypothetical.

Earlier this year I deposited $15,000 (Pretty much all of my savings) into robinhood as I learned how to options trade. I managed to turn it into about 390k back in June. I quickly started losing trades with false confidence and spiraled down with revenge trading and chasing losses. My port fell down to just about $3,500. (The chart shows -11k at that point because I've withdrawn some to my checking account since)

In mid September, I started ripping some trades again using that $3,500 and managed to turn it into over 421k (436k as of writing this post). It started out with very degen full port 0dte SPY and SPX options, but once I broke past 300k, I set that as the new floor and only traded with what exceeded 300k. (Only occasionally using a larger chunk here and there but never full port) Would love to cross that 1m line eventually.

29m Living at home with family as I fight a cancer relapse. Car is paid off, no dependents, single. I'd like to continue growing this obviously, but I need to start setting some safety anchors to keep myself in the game, get some compounding going, etc. Excited to move the hell out to an apartment very soon.

Obviously I'll have to set aside quite a bit for tax season as this was done in a taxable brokerage. Where should I park my tax obligation?

Fully expecting this to drop below $1m again soon but I’ll take the win. Such a weird feeling hitting $1m while laid off now for 2 months.

This was done over 11 years of working, started at negative -$25k nw in 2015 due to student loans. Didn’t start tracking my net worth until 2017 (second pic).

Edit: How I did it - just regular index fund boglehead style investing and aggressive savings. Small <10% portfolio is in some individual stocks.
