Who We Are
At Legion Trades, we believe trading isn’t just about profits — it’s about purpose, redemption, and discipline.
The Story Behind the Mission
My journey into trading didn’t begin with a mentor, a course, or even a plan.
It began the day I turned 18 — young, ambitious, and dangerously overconfident.
Like most kids who grew up watching the markets from afar, I thought I had it all figured out. I opened a brokerage account using my mother’s retirement savings. I didn’t see it as reckless at the time. I saw it as an opportunity to prove myself.
Instead, I lost everything.
The moment that broke me — and made me — came on the night of the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
The trade was simple: Hillary Clinton wins, the U.S. dollar rises, and gold drops.
So I bet it all on the dollar.
But the unexpected happened. Trump won.
*Gold soared. The dollar collapsed. My account imploded.*
It wasn’t just my money. It was my mother’s retirement — gone overnight.
Most people would’ve walked away. I couldn’t. Not after what I’d done.
She couldn’t pay for my mistake. I had to find a way to fix it.
Fight or Fold
That night, I opened as many brokerage accounts as I could. I borrowed money from friends and family. I funneled every dollar into a triple-leveraged gold ETF and started day trading through the night.
By the time the U.S. markets opened the next morning, I had recovered nearly 60% of the damage.
It wasn’t everything — but it was enough to show me something powerful:
*If this much recovery was possible in one night… then others out there were doing much more. The difference was experience.*
From that moment on, I committed to the craft. I never looked back.
Trading in a White Coat
While others crammed anatomy, I watched charts.
While they memorized physiology, I memorized price action.
I traded through medical school.
In lectures, I’d have one eye on the professor and one on the S&P 500.
Before exams, I’d set my stop losses and profit targets — and hope the market obeyed while I was inside.
While classmates checked their answers afterward, I checked my trades.
Even during hospital rotations, I’d step out between patients to review my positions.
*Trading wasn’t just a hustle. It was — and still is — everything to me.*
