Bradley Goldberg

“I started out my trading career just over 8 years ago and am self taught. Learning from my own mistakes in the early days, it took two years to then become a consistent and profitable day trader, focusing on indices and fx markets. Realising that education and being mentored by the right people was the key to becoming consistent and just how many people were being mislead and miseducated, I decided to set up Educate2trade to give anyone a chance to become a professional trader with the right education and mindset. We now educate and fund multiple traders around the world.”

Lewis Burton

“I started out my career as a professional tennis player playing on the ATP Tour having the privilege to play in some of the major grand slams such as Wimbledon, I managed to get up to an ATP Ranking of about 150 in the world. Unfortunately for myself the expense of traveling and attending the qualifiers for the major tournaments became too expensive without a sponsor. I soon realised I would need to find an alternative income and career moving forward. I attended a bespoke trading education course taught by one of our own educators about 6 years ago which changed everything for me. With a lot of hard work and fantastic mentorship by my tutor I was able to teach myself to become a profitable trader and earn a reliable living. As a team we have decided to set up an education side to the business called educate2trade to share our experiences and knowledge and help people like myself who were in my situation 5 years ago.”

Chris Pollock

In spite of getting a degree in Finance and Economics in 2004 my love for financial markets truly began when I started working at a physical metal trading firm in 2006. I cut my teeth in the market with precious and LME metals, specialising in gold during the extreme volatility of the Financial Crisis. In 2009 I moved back to London to set up a commodities desk at a derivative firm to trade metals as well as energy products, soft commodities and agriculturals. I then founded and ran a physical precious metal firm in the City for ten years. Throughout my career I have always traded my own money across a variety of asset classes and in 2020 I started solely trading my accounts. Then in 2021 I joined the team at Educate 2 Trade to trade on their trading floor and to help aspiring traders improve their process and reach their goals.
