I'll try to be as objective as possible and assume that the figures in your dashboard are correct:
Since 01.01.2019, a 60% Stocks 40% Bond portfolio has made a return of 56%.
https://portfolioslab.com/portfolio/stocks-bonds-60-40
2023 was the worst year ever for this portfolio. (because of the bond crash)
Your portfolio in the same time 17%... so you were beaten by one of the worst performing standard portfolios by a factor of 3...
If individual stocks are a hobby then go ahead, if you want to build wealth with them then please buy broad market ETFs.
This is meant to be objective criticism, please don't take it personally.

@PowerWordChill Hi, the 17% is not objective for my performance. The TTWR is 57 percent since Oct 2018. I also invest a lot

@PowerWordChill Assuming my portfolio stands at 10k with 100 percent profit, then I invest another 10 k, the portfolio will only have 25 percent profit. It is simply distorted downwards

@PowerWordChill you have a mistake in your thinking, the performance changes when you put in new money...
••
@mhu OK, you're right that the new deposits drag down the relative return.
If we assume that you have generated a return of 57% on the capital invested, then your portfolio has performed roughly the same as the 60/40 portfolio, but with massively higher risk.

@PowerWordChill well, you should also note that the stock markets corrected significantly from oct 18 to dec 18. But yes, I don't want to make it look better than it is. I didn't achieve a big outperformance in the 5 years. Another reason why I invest 80 percent of my new money in ETFs

@PowerWordChill but still arrived safely and, as we all know, the journey is the reward 🤷♂️

@SAUgut77 So my goal is to stop working full-time at some point. And the goal is the goal. Of course, I like to take things with me on the way 😉
