From rock bottom to rebuilding with discipline.
I started trading in late 2019 with no mentor, no course and no roadmap. Like most traders, I learned through trial and error. I chased shortcuts, battled my emotions and got humbled by the markets over and over again.
At one point, I grew a live account from $400 to over $38,000. Then I blew it all. Not because the strategy failed, but because my mindset could not handle the success.
In 2024, I hit rock bottom for a second time. I blew all of my funded accounts, then let frustration take over and went through more than 30 evaluation accounts in one night. When it was over, I had 6 cents left in my bank account.
That moment changed everything. I stopped asking what strategy I needed and started asking who I needed to become. Profitability is not just a dollar figure. It is a mindset.
I rebuilt myself brick by brick. I stopped chasing money and started chasing mastery. Over time, my edge became clearer, my execution became cleaner and my approach became grounded in discipline, patience, risk and self awareness.
That is why I helped create Daddy Futures. I wanted to build the guidance, accountability and environment I wish I had when I first started. If you are willing to put in the work, you will always have someone in your corner here.

A career changed by courage, psychology and the markets.
I started trading in 2023 because of Ekhraj. He introduced me to the markets, taught me how to trade and played a huge role in my growth from the beginning. I learned to trade in three months and became profitable by my fourth month.
Before trading full time, I was a manager at Dan Murphy’s earning $85,000 AUD a year. I had built a solid career, but a work injury placed me on medical leave. Trading was already becoming a side income for me, so I decided to see what I could really do with it.
I bought a $250,000 Apex evaluation account, passed it in a week and went all in. Within four weeks, I had made $176,000 USD. That was the moment I realised trading could completely change my life.
I left my 9 to 5 in July 2024. When I resigned, my boss said, “But you love this job.” And honestly, I did like parts of it. But I had just made three times my yearly salary in a month, so I told her, “I do not love it that much.”
My trading focuses mainly on NQ, XAUUSD and WTI. Alongside trading, I am certified in Neuro Linguistic Programming and I am currently completing psychology qualifications. The mindset side of trading is something I am deeply passionate about.
A lot of traders think they have a strategy problem when they actually have a pattern problem. The way you speak to yourself after a loss, the story you attach to a bad trade, your beliefs around money and the emotional state you trade from all affect your execution.
I believe trading is 10 percent knowledge and 90 percent psychology. You can know exactly what to do, but executing under pressure is a completely different game. My goal inside Daddy Futures is to help traders understand themselves better, build stronger foundations and develop the mindset needed to actually execute what they know.
