Hi, I'm Spencer

I began trading during the lockdowns of 2020 and, like many, have been captivated ever since. By day, I work as a data engineer and often joke that I am a better programmer than trader.

Trading is paradoxically the most difficult easy thing to do. For all traders, the human element and emotional aspects are the hardest to overcome. To address this, I decided to create bots. Bots never get bored, never get emotional, and execute exactly as planned.

Why Phaedos?

Phaedos is a desolate wasteland of a planet. Its surface is strewn with the skeletal remains of those who sought and failed to acquire “the Great Power.” Ultimately, it is the place where the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers gain their Ninja Ranger abilities.

I love using this as an allegory to my journey trading. So many seek the "great power" of success with day trading, and almost as many fail.

Risk Disclosure:

Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
