Our Story

TheMLTrader was founded with a simple observation: retail traders were being left behind. While institutions deployed sophisticated ML systems, individual traders were still relying on outdated technical analysis and "guru" signals.

We set out to change that. Drawing from years of experience in quantitative finance and software engineering, we built a platform that makes institutional-grade ML trading accessible to everyone.

Our approach is different. We don't just give you signals—we teach you the entire pipeline: data collection, feature engineering, model building, backtesting, and live deployment. We believe that understanding your edge is just as important as having one.

Today, TheMLTrader serves thousands of traders worldwide, from complete beginners to experienced developers looking to add ML to their toolkit.

TheMLTrader Founder

TheMLTrader

Founder & Lead Instructor

With over a decade of experience in quantitative finance and machine learning, I've dedicated my career to bridging the gap between institutional trading strategies and retail trader accessibility.

My journey started in quantitative research at a top-tier hedge fund, where I developed and deployed ML-powered trading systems managing hundreds of millions in assets. I saw firsthand how sophisticated algorithms could generate consistent returns—and I knew this edge shouldn't be exclusive to Wall Street.

After years of building production trading systems and training junior quants, I founded TheMLTrader to democratize these institutional-grade techniques. My mission is to teach retail traders not just what to trade, but how to think like a quantitative researcher.
