In an exclusive interview with The5%ers, trader Omar shares his journey from nutritionist and fitness coach to becoming a successful trader with the proprietary trading firm. Originally from Mexico, Omar turned to trading in the wake of the pandemic, when the fitness industry took a hit. With a background in sports nutrition and bodybuilding, Omar’s disciplined mindset and high-performance training approach played a key role in his trading success.
Omar’s trading style focuses on Smart Money Concepts, combined with his own price action strategies. He highlights the importance of market structure, time, and confirmation before entering trades. Using a passive trading approach, he trades primarily during the London session, waiting for key price movements before entering the market.
Omar also emphasized the importance of trade management, noting that it’s not enough to simply find a good entry. Active management is essential for securing profits and minimizing losses. His trading journey is with learning, patience, and resilience, often sharing that trading is a mental game where discipline and consistency are key.
Having recently passed his evaluation with The5%ers, Omar discussed the joy of receiving his first payout, likening it to winning a bodybuilding trophy—proof of the hard work and dedication he put into mastering his craft.
His advice for aspiring traders? “Find a real mentor, stay away from the noise on social media, and put in the work,” he said, encouraging others to be prepared for the long journey and to avoid chasing quick profits.
Omar’s story is a testament to the power of discipline, learning, and the ability to adapt. With his continued success, Omar looks forward to scaling up his trading account and achieving even greater milestones with The5%ers.
