From Real Estate to Full-Time Trading Nick’s journey into trading began in 2016 while he was working as a real estate associate. Intrigued by a colleague who was successfully trading stocks on the side and was generating himself an additional income, Nick quickly became captivated by the potential of trading to generate additional income himself.
His initial experience was a mix of beginner’s luck and hard lessons, which drove him to invest heavily in his education. After two years of persistence and over $6,000 in training expenses, Nick reached a level of consistent profitability and transitioned into full-time trading in 2018. Founding Onyx Trading Education In 2020, Nick launched Onyx Trading Education, building on his personal success to offer a structured, accessible way for others to enter the trading world. His programs were specifically designed to demystify trading for complete beginners, providing a step-by-step approach that focuses on technical analysis and risk management.

A Holistic Approach to Success Nick’s philosophy extends beyond financial success. He emphasizes a balanced approach to life, advocating for health, personal development, and continuous learning. To Nick, true wealth is defined not just by monetary gain but by achieving freedom and fulfillment in every aspect of life. This mindset resonates in his teaching style, where he focuses not only on trading strategies but also on cultivating the right mindset and discipline required to succeed long-term.
