It was here that he honed his skills in price action and structure trading. In 2018, he transitioned to trading US stocks, employing the renowned CANSLIM and Minervini techniques to refine his strategy. Over the years, Alex developed his unique price action swing trading system, with a strong emphasis on risk management.

Coach & Experienced Trader
I'm Sandeep, a resident of the vibrant Boston area, where I live with my loving family—a wonderful spouse and two amazing kids. Amidst the challenges of the COVID era, I embarked on a journey into the world of trading, seeking opportunities amidst uncertainty.
During those turbulent times, I stumbled upon trading, initially navigating through hit-and-trial methods to find my footing. During this exploration, I encountered Alex, who became a guiding light on my trading path. Through diligent study and practical application, I honed my approach, uncovering two foundational principles that have become the cornerstone of my trading strategy:
Buying Support after Breakout: Recognizing the significance of support levels and leveraging breakouts as entry points, I've learned to identify lucrative opportunities within the market's movements.
Planning the Trade and Trading the Plan: I meticulously outline my trades with a disciplined approach, adhering to a well-constructed plan to mitigate risks and capitalize on potential gains.
Through perseverance and dedication, I've cultivated a methodology that aligns with my risk appetite and investment objectives, enabling me to navigate the dynamic landscape of trading with confidence and purpose.

Coach & Experienced Trader
Francisco was introduced to trading in 2018 after the October'18 correction. He was working a 9-5 job in Private Banking, and after two years in the corporate world, he realized that the "normal routine" was not for him.
He started reading about the stock market and decided to invest some money. Since he invested around the end of the 2018 correction, he experienced significant positive results by the beginning of 2019, which attracted him to learn more about the market.
Francisco started by trading stocks and then got into options in 2019, where he had his first trade in which he made more than his monthly salary in an overnight options trade in Tesla.
That confirmed for him that the market offers a path to financial freedom for anyone willing to commit to learning how to trade in the stock market successfully.
Currently, Francisco trades only stocks as he has found more consistency in this approach.
He is a swing trader with an average holding time of 4 days, focusing primarily on trading the indexes and mega-cap names.
Francisco achieved a +53.25% return in 2023, while his "biggest" red month was August, which was only -2.86%.
His portfolio Sharpe Ratio (Annualized) is 2.9055, and Sortino Ratio (Annualized) is 6.0708, which serves as evidence of his continuous effort in managing risk while maximizing the upside of his trades.
Francisco looks to share his knowledge with new traders as he continues to get better at his craft.
You can also find him at @BalarezoCapital on X.

Very good group of traders. Alex is top-notch in his process and a very good human being, always supportive. I encourage newer swing traders to try it out for themselves. Process-driven with tight risk management.

Been part of Alex's PrimeTrading community for the most of 6 months now, and I really love it there. Alex is just a top guy; He definitely knows what he is doing and why, and is very open and communicative about it. Humorous and kind on top of that. The community has some very experienced and skilled members that are actively chipping in, so there is no limit to what you can learn in here, being a newbee or a more seasoned trader. The tone in here is warm and welcoming and everyone gets a nice answer to questions. Comes highly recommended!
