Today, we’re excited to shine the spotlight on Omer, one of our exceptional traders here at OFP! Since joining us in October 2022, Omer has been making great strides, trading with a $100,000 account and achieving a notable 5% return in just his first month. We sat down with Omer to dive into his trading journey, his strategies, and how he’s staying disciplined in an ever-evolving market.

From Traditional Work to Full-Time Trading

Originally from Switzerland, Omer’s path to trading success wasn’t an easy one. After years of balancing a traditional job, Omer decided to leave it all behind to focus on day trading. This transition didn’t come without its challenges, but Omer’s determination to succeed helped him find his footing.

“When I started, it was tough. But over the last year, I dedicated all my energy to trading, and now, I’m seeing the results. I left behind my previous career and now fully focus on being a trader,” Omer shared.

Why Omer Chose OFP

Omer joined OFP after exploring various prop trading firms. He was drawn to our flexibility and supportive environment, which he found ideal for his trading style.

I looked into other funding firms, but OFP stood out because of its lack of stringent rules. The flexibility here allows me to trade my way without dealing with the stress of challenges or restrictions,” Omer explained.

A Peek Into Omer's Trading Strategy

Omer’s trading strategy is grounded in technical analysis, with a particular focus on wave analysis and Fibonacci extensions. His approach to the market is calculated and disciplined, allowing him to anticipate price movements with precision.

“I start by analyzing the monthly chart to understand the market’s overall direction. Then, I drill down into lower time frames and use tools like Fibonacci to predict future movements,” Omer said. “The key is patience and risk management. I set stop-losses to protect my trades and always wait for confirmation signals before entering a position.”

Evolving Mindset: From Gambling to Discipline

Omer’s journey has not only been about refining his technical skills but also about changing his mindset. Early on, Omer admits that he struggled with a gambling mentality, but over time, he learned to focus on long-term success instead of chasing quick wins.

“My mentality has completely transformed. I used to have a gambling mindset, but now, I follow a disciplined approach. That shift has not only improved my trading but also made me more patient in other areas of life,” Omer noted.

Routine and Trading Sessions

When it comes to his trading routine, Omer prefers to trade during the European and U.S. sessions, strategically timing his entries and exits around market activity.

“I usually trade from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM European time, which lines up with the U.S. market opening. I also keep an eye on the Tokyo session if needed but prefer to close all positions before the weekend,” Omer said.

What’s Next for Omer?

Looking ahead, Omer’s goals extend beyond trading. He plans to build multiple streams of passive income while continuing to hone his trading skills. His ultimate aim is to achieve financial independence and continue investing wisely.

Advice for New Traders

For those just starting their trading journey, Omer’s advice is simple yet powerful: “Invest in yourself. Learn to be efficient, and don’t just chase profits. OFP offers so many resources, and if you focus on high-quality trades rather than quantity, you’ll see profitability over time.”

We’re proud of Omer’s success and the dedication he’s shown in his journey with OFP. Stay tuned for more stories from our top traders and insights into their strategies!
