What I'm looking for

I want to join a prop-focused team where I can build and refine MQL5 automated systems for XAU/USD, backed by strict risk management, measurable performance goals, and a culture that values disciplined, rule-based execution.

I’m a highly disciplined, profitable financial markets trader and algorithmic systems developer with over 4 years of experience, specializing in Gold (XAU/USD). I build automated trading systems using MQL5, focusing on high-precision Expert Advisors powered by rule-based execution. My background in BBA Marketing helps me translate strategy clarity into reliable trading logic.

From Jan 2022 to present, I’ve developed and deployed a custom MQL5 Trading Robot using proprietary level-to-level price action and candlestick strategies. I optimize systems to run effectively on micro-accounts ($50 - $60), delivering consistent monthly growth targets through rigorous backtesting and live execution.

I’ve passed multiple international Proprietary Trading Firm challenges (2025-2026) and earned certificates for top-tier performance in global trading competitions. I’m especially strong in risk and portfolio management—maintaining drawdown control and minimizing emotional bias through 100% rule-based processes, with clear strategy documentation and performance tracking in MS Excel.
