Active vs Passive portfolio growth chart - January 2025 to July 2026
Yearly performance comparison - Active outperformed passive in both 2025 and 2026

How it works

On the 22nd of every month, 10,000 SEK (~$1,000) is invested, split equally between active trading and a passive global index fund.

A

Active Portfolio

5,000 SEK (~$500)/month

High-conviction swing trades on equities. Market structure, order blocks, and defined risk. Every entry and exit shared live on X before the result is known.

P

Passive Portfolio

5,000 SEK (~$500)/month

Buy and hold a global index fund (Storebrand Global All Countries A, MSCI ACWI tracker). No decisions, no timing. The benchmark to beat.

All portfolios

The 25-Year Experiment is the flagship. Three additional portfolios are tracked alongside it.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about the experiment and how I trade.

What is the 25-Year Trading Experiment? +

A public, long-term test of whether disciplined swing trading can outperform passive index investing over 25 years. Every month since January 2025, I invest 10,000 SEK (~$1,000) split equally between an actively traded portfolio and a global index fund. Every trade is documented and shared publicly. The experiment runs until 2050.

Is this financial advice? +

No. Nothing on this site constitutes financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. I share my own trades and results for educational and transparency purposes. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always do your own research and consult a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.

Can I copy your trades? +

I would not recommend it. The purpose of sharing trades publicly is transparency and accountability, not to provide signals. My position sizes, risk tolerance, and time horizon are specific to my situation. The course is designed to help you build your own strategy and edge, not to copy mine.

How do I follow your trades in real time? +

Every entry and exit is shared live on X (@trader_gu) before the result is known. Subscribe to the newsletter for monthly portfolio updates, or sign up for the live trading dashboard to see every position and P&L.

How do you manage risk? +

Every trade has a predefined stop loss and position size before entry. I risk a fixed percentage of the portfolio per trade and never add to losing positions. Risk management is the foundation of the strategy. The course covers this in detail.

What methodology do you use? +

High-timeframe swing trading based on market structure, order blocks, and institutional price levels. I trade on weekly and monthly charts, hold positions for days to months, and focus on high-conviction setups with defined risk. The full methodology is taught in the course.
