About Jacob

Of the Atlantic Trading mentors have, Jacobs has one of the most relatable and inspiring stories. He began investing in 2020 with no formal training and by 2022 he had become a full-time trader. His success was not because of luck, but through dedication. He mastered technical analysis, gained understanding of the market structure, and developed the discipline that separates consistently profitable traders from those that guess.

He thrives in the fast-moving, high-volatility world that most traders find overwhelming, spotting momentum shifts, reading volume patterns and executing precise entries and exits under pressure. His trading style perfectly matches his personality, patient, calculated and completely process-driven.

Outside of Trading

Jacob is a proud and passionate Manchester United supporter, who rarely misses a match. He loves to travel, experience new cultures, and unwind at techno events. Jacob believes that balance is not just a lifestyle choice, it’s a trading edge. For him maintaining a grounded mindset outside of trading translates to better decision making overall.

    How we calculate win rates

    We measure win rate using closed trades only, to reflect actual performance, in the past 12 months.

    A trade is classified as:

    • Win → profit after fees

    • Loss → negative result

    • Breakeven → no gain or loss, not included

    Formula

    Win rate % = Wins ÷ (Wins + Losses) × 100

    Example

    • Wins: 89

    • Losses: 11

    Win rate = 89 ÷ (89 + 11) × 100 = 89%

    What we include

    • All trades within the past 12 months from the most recent update

    • Fees and realistic execution

    • Consistent calculation across all our traders

    What we exclude

    • Open trades (trades that are still on-going)

    • Partial updates or scaling entries

    Important

    Win rate alone does not define performance.

    For example, a trader with a lower win rate can outperform if their winning trades are larger than their losses.

    Please remember current performance does not predict or guarantee future performance. You may loose money by following our traders and trading is still very risky.
