I am a professional trader and Expert Advisor developer focused on building high-performance, risk-driven systems for MetaTrader 5.
My edge was forged through real market experience—enduring drawdowns, refining strategy, and developing a disciplined, repeatable framework that delivers under live conditions.
As the founder of Code Guardian, I create tools and education designed to help traders move with clarity and confidence.
As a father of five, my mission is rooted in building freedom through precision, consistency, and purpose.
I live by one core principle that has shaped both my trading and development: seek first the Kingdom of God, and everything else will follow—words from Jesus Christ, the greatest developer the world has ever known.
