Prop trader · tool builder

I trade prop, and I build the tools I wish existed.

Most trading software is built by people who don't trade. I build mine in the trenches — sized to real risk, ruthless about fees, and designed to keep me from breaking my own rules. Sharpened Edge is the flagship.

Sharpened Edge

Why I built a calculator before a journal

Sizing is the decision. Everything downstream is bookkeeping.

The fee hurdle nobody prices in

Coming soon

Per-share commissions quietly eat a third of your edge. Here's the math.

Rules you keep vs. rules you write down

Coming soon

Discipline isn't willpower. It's a system that makes the right move the easy one.

About

Who's behind this

I go by . I trade at a prop firm and spend my off-hours building the software that makes me a better trader. I care about the unglamorous parts — risk per share, fees, the rule you break at 10:43am — because that's where edges are actually won and lost.

If you're an employer or collaborator: I ship. Everything on this page that looks interactive is interactive — built with the same stack I'd bring to your team. If you're a trader: the calculator above is free, and the writing is where I think out loud.
