About Me

From Losses to Discipline

I’ve been trading since 2018.
Like many traders, my journey didn’t start with consistency—it started with mistakes. During the COVID period, I lost over $250,000 trading Bitcoin futures. At the time, I was trading on BitMEX & ByBit back when it was still available in Japan. The volatility was extreme, and like many traders, I was chasing fast profits without a structured system.

The lesson that cost me $250,000:

  1. 1. Jumping strategies will destroy your progress.
  2. 2. Mastering one strategy will build consistency.
  3.  

Trading is not about doing more.
It’s about doing the same thing correctly over and over again.

The Biggest Mistake

My biggest mistake wasn’t the market.

It was my approach.

  1. 1. Jumping from one strategy to another
  2. 2. Chasing indicators and signals
  3. 3. Overtrading without discipline

This is exactly what most traders go through—and exactly what keeps them stuck.

The Turning Point

Everything changed when I realized:

There is no “perfect strategy.”
There is only disciplined execution of one proven model.

Instead of chasing setups, I focused on:

  1. 1. Understanding liquidity
  2. 2. Reading market structure
  3. 3. Developing a repeatable entry model
