I help busy professionals make money trading UK stocks💡

I got rejected for every single trading job I applied for.

I didn’t have the right qualifications and I didn’t know where to start.

In fact, people laughed when I said I wanted to become an investor because at the time I was a broke graduate.

However, I took a risk and signed up for a trading seminar in London. I got the overnight bus from Cologne.

The seminar was basic but it taught me two key concepts:

1. Those who are disciplined make money
2. Trading is scalable and gains are exponential

It got me started on my path. I realised that the opportunity to trade for a living was there if I worked for it. 

That week, I cashed out my small tracker fund and maxed out the biggest loan I could from Deutsche Bank. 

It went straight into my trading account.

And since December 13th 2016, I’ve been trading the markets for a living. 

I love learning about new companies and technologies, finding out why stocks move, and how to extract profits from financial markets.

My goal is to trade full time and have investments in a number of businesses.

My results:

→ I'm an investor in a VC fund, investing quarterly into early stage potential 100 baggers. 
→ I've achieved four consecutive years of 6-figure annual net profits. 
→ I advise trading businesses on client acquisition and retention.
→ I help retail traders scale and grow. 

Then in 2020, I realised that there was no online course dedicated to taking new and beginner traders to annual 6-figure profits traders.

So I built The UK Stock Trading Course:

→ 400+ students in The UK Stock Trading Course
→ 11,000+ subscribers to my weekly email
→ 100% student satisfaction 
→ 1 product
 
If you want to learn more about how to create and scale your trading account, you can join The UK Stock Trading Course, or sign up to my free weekly newsletter which comes with my books How To Make 6 Figures In Stocks, and The UK Stock Trading Handbook. 
 
THE UK STOCK TRADING COURSE
 
In this 8+ hour course, you'll learn how to navigate the UK stock market to your advantage, as well as how to use the tools available to exploit opportunities.
