About Dion
DionTrades
I trade, teach, and show the work behind it.
I studied law and worked in corporate consulting before I pursued trading. I thought the next strategy or concept would make things click. It took losing money and getting honest about my own execution to see what I was missing.
My story
I knew more about trading than I could put into practice.
I studied ICT and other trading education, but knowing the concepts did not mean I could execute consistently. I lost money and kept looking for the thing I thought I was missing.
Working with a mentor changed the question. Instead of asking what strategy to learn next, I started looking at how I behaved when it was time to trade: whether I followed my plan, how I handled a planned loss, and what my own data was telling me.
That shift helped me get my first payout and, eventually, become a full-time trader. It also changed how I teach.
What I believe
A better process beats another pile of setups.
Trading is personal. The work is learning to follow your own rules when the market and your emotions put them under pressure.
Review your own data
Use your journal and trade history to see what you actually do, not what you hope you do.
Build independence
The aim is to make your own decisions and follow your process—not copy someone else's trades.
Follow along
The wins, the losses, and the decisions in between.
I share the process on YouTube and host a free live trading session every Wednesday at 9:25AM EST.
