1:1 Mentoring — Automated Trading for Beginners

Learn to build the system.
Not buy someone else's bot.

Live, one-on-one sessions for people starting out in algorithmic trading — backtesting, validation, and the process of turning an idea into a system you actually understand and trust.

No fixed curriculum. No promise of a profitable strategy. Just a working process, one call at a time.

Who this is actually for

Being upfront about this saves both of us a wasted session.

This is for you if

  • You're new to algorithmic trading and want to understand how systems are actually built, tested, and judged.
  • You have an idea or a rough strategy and want help turning it into something you can properly backtest.
  • You want to understand concepts like expectancy, drawdown, overfitting, and validation — not just paste code.
  • You're comfortable doing the work between calls; the sessions guide the process, they don't replace it.

This isn't for you if

  • You want a ready-made profitable strategy handed to you.
  • You're looking for guaranteed or predictable returns.
  • You want someone to trade for you or manage your capital.
  • You're only interested in signals, not in understanding the system behind them.
Structure

How the sessions work

There's no fixed multi-week program — you book sessions as you need them, at your own pace. Most beginners tend to move through a similar arc, shown here as a guide, not a requirement.

01

Foundations & framing

What "algorithmic" actually means, how to think in rules instead of feelings, and an honest look at what your idea needs before it's testable.

02

Building the first backtest

Turning your idea into logic, choosing data, and running a first pass — plus the common mistakes that quietly invalidate results at this stage.

03

Validation & risk

Stress-testing the result: overfitting checks, drawdown, position sizing, and whether the backtest has any real relationship to live behavior.

…

Whatever comes next

Further sessions follow what you actually need — live-readiness, prop firm rules, debugging a pipeline, or just a second pair of eyes.

Every session is booked and billed individually — no bundles to commit to upfront.

About the mentor

A practitioner, not a guru

My background is in quantitative trading and data, with an M.Sc. in Finance — including building and testing systems aimed at surviving live conditions, not just looking good in a backtest, where the margin for sloppy validation is zero.

I won't promise you a strategy that prints money — nobody honestly can. What I can do is shorten the distance between "I have an idea" and "I can tell you, rigorously, whether this idea holds up" — the part most beginners get stuck on for months, alone.

Sessions are one-on-one and live, so we work on your system, your data, and your actual questions — not a generic curriculum.

Pricing

One rate. No bundles to decide on.

FAQ

Before you book

Will you give me a profitable trading strategy?

No. I help you build and rigorously test your own ideas. Nobody can honestly promise a profitable strategy — and I won't pretend otherwise.

Do I need to know how to code?

Basic familiarity helps, but you don't need to be an expert. We can work at whatever level you're at — the goal is that you understand what's happening, not just copy code.

What should I bring to a session?

Whatever you have — a rough idea on paper, a partial backtest, questions about a concept, or a system that isn't behaving the way you expect. There's no minimum prep required.

Will you manage my money or trade for me?

No. This is education and mentoring only — I never take control of your capital or place trades on your behalf.

Is my strategy or data kept confidential?

Yes — anything you share stays between us and isn't shared with other clients or used to train AI models. Full details are in the privacy & confidentiality policy.

Can I book more than one session?

Yes, as many as you'd like — each is booked and paid individually, so there's nothing to commit to in advance.
