I’m a mid 50s British-Italian law graduate, former web developer, and ICT manager who is currently pursuing a master’s degree in psychology while engaging in derivative trading and spending as much time as possible traveling, reading and enjoying landscape photography.
To know more about me here are some social links of mixed relevance to my financial activities:
While my passion for landscape photography is evident on this site, I understand that you’re likely more interested in my activities on ,so here’s a brief overview:
- I don’t consider myself a professional trader; rather, I’m a patient individual with a high tolerance for financial exposure, a combination that has proven effective in generating profits.
- I firmly believe that profitability is achievable in any market condition.
- I hold a CISI* Level 3 Certificate in Wealth & Investment Management, but please note that I am not offering financial advice. While you can replicate my trades on eToro, it’s important to recognise that the funds are yours, and you bear responsibility for the outcomes.
For those curious about my strategy, you can find more details below or visit the dedicated strategy page.
- Absolute return is at the core of my trading approach, meaning I strive to generate profits regardless of the market’s direction. A market crash doesn’t always spell doom, and a market rally isn’t always cause for celebration. Both scenarios can be advantageous when seasoned with high volatility, yet become unfavourable in the absence of volatility.
- My portfolio has consistently achieved monthly growth ranging between 2% and 4%**. At the end of each month, I distribute these gains as dividends.
- In terms of risk, my strategy falls into the Medium-High category. While there hasn’t been a loss of invested capital for a considerable period, I encourage you to explore the history section for a more in-depth understanding.
- I trade with a leverage factor of 10 times, I leverage small market fluctuations to maximise returns. Although this introduces an additional element of risk, it is meticulously managed, as detailed in the strategy section.
- My primary focus is on the UK100 index, also known as the FTSE100, and I engage in a variation of swing trading based on grids. Occasionally, I invest in shares when they are attractively priced, and I steer well clear of Crypto.
- Reflecting on my trading performance, approximately 66%** of my trading weeks have been profitable so far. Moreover, 99%** of my trades so far I closed in profit.
