Trading Pips, Writing Scripts: My Dual Journey (Part 2)

Finding a mentor wasn’t exactly a walk in the park. The internet felt like a jungle flooded with self-proclaimed “trading gurus” who all swore they had the secret sauce to turn anyone into a millionaire overnight. Some threw flashy cars in your face, others promised "magic strategies" that never lost. It was wild. But then, one day, I stumbled across someone different. His trading approach wasn’t just about hype. It made sense. His explanations felt grounded. And lucky for me, he was offering a discount on his mentorship at the time. That was my cue. So I did what any ambitious teenager would do, I went to my dad. I told him I wanted to invest in this mentorship, not because it was trendy, but because something in me knew this could change everything. Thankfully, he believed in me enough to support it. He sent the money. And just like that, my real trading journey began. I was learning Support and Resistance, Supply and Demand. All the foundational principles that turn chart watchers into profitable traders. And the deeper I went, the more obsessed I became. I’d wake up at midnight, grab my phone, open TradingView, and analyze the charts till my battery begged for mercy. My screen time was through the roof. MetaTrader 5 became my second home. And believe me when I say this — I traded everything. From major currency pairs to crypto, from synthetics to volatility indices... I was all over the financial map. I didn’t want to miss a thing. One of my proudest moments came when I predicted GBP/USD to hit 1.34 — months before it did.
