• Instructor Bio:

    My name is Yvan Byeajee; I am a trader with several years of experience in anything pertaining to the practice of meditation. Meditation has provoked some deep changes within me, which has also positively impacted the way I trade ― and my trading performance. In my work, I aspire to help traders go through that same process of transformation. The implications of such profound mental changes are enormous for us traders. When equanimity, balance, wise discernment, among other wholesome mental characteristics become the new norm of the mind, what ensues is a way of trading that is effortless, enjoyable, and above all profitable.

Trade For A Living

Now, I know what you might have said to yourself as you read the title of this course…

“That sounds too good to be true, but let’s check it out anyway…”

Just know this: Yes, trading for a living is possible! 

How do I know this? 

This is something that I do. And I also know plenty of other people who do the exact same thing.

Here’s an important thing you need to know: People have an idea of how traders who successfully 'trade for a living' work and the kind of returns they make, but reality is often very different.

For the longest time, I had a rigid idea of what trading for a living should look like, and because of that, I’ve been on the wrong path many (many!) times.

I’ve struggled a lot before I arrived at where I am today.

So, allow me to share some important information with you and really clear up some things.

Imagine that I come to you and say, 

“Hey, I make on average 20% return trading the U.S stock market every year.”

That’s a nice return, right? But, not impressive, by any stretch.

On the other hand, my friend Chris makes +250% return. 

Now, this is what you can call impressive!

Now, imagine that both of us are offering to show you how we trade. 

Chances are that you’ll probably think to yourself, 

“Well, Chris makes more, so he must have some special knowledge that Yvan doesn’t have; he must have more experience, so I’d rather learn from him.”

But is that true?


Well, let’s look into that…

What if I told you that my equity curve is way less volatile than his?



Furthermore, what if I told you that I have a process-based, systematic way of trading that leads me to trade only 2 hours a day (usually less but let’s say 2 hours), and for the research and planning, a maximum of 15-20 minutes.


That’s a total of 2 hours and 20 minutes a day and around 12 hours a week.

Chris, on the other hand, is a discretionary trader. He uses his intuition to gauge market sentiment, and he relies heavily on chart patterns and esoteric analyses. 

He works 50+ hours a week ―he spends on average 6 to 12 hours a day in front of his screens trading or watching his trades unfold, looking for opportunities, and he spends an additional 4-5 hours a day for research and planning for the next day.

Then, if Chris runs a website like I do and has to answer emails, create content for his followers, etc., we’re possibly looking at an 80 hour week for him.

For me? 

Well, currently I spend 2 hours a day doing those things, and I am constantly optimizing things so that I spend less time doing them. 

So in total, I only work around 22 hours a week. Worst case, it’s 25 hours. But we’re still very far from Chris’ 80 hours.

Do I have your full attention now?

Okay... let's push this a little further: What if I told you that I lead a much happier life than Chris? 

Of course, this is difficult to verify because of the subjective nature of this claim, but let’s say that there are some clearly visible signs that attest to this:

✔ I lead a peaceful life. I have a clear understanding of myself and my thoughts and emotions, while Chris is an emotional mess, a walking time bomb waiting to explode at any moment just because of the sheer amount of stress he’s exposed to on a continuous basis given his freestyle, unstructured approach to trading.

✔ I have time for my family and friends. Chris? Well, he doesn’t! He can’t even spend time with his 4-year-old. And whenever he spends time with her, his mind is with the market.


✔ I’m currently in my thirties and I look like I could be maybe in my early 20s (really), while Chris looks much older than I do even though he’s younger than me… he always carries bags under his eyes. It must be those damn losses that keep him awake at night or those long hours he spends in front of his multiple screens.


✔ Chris lives in Manhattan where life is crazy-expensive. So even though he might earn 5x- 10x more than me in absolute income, in relative income, I’m earning more than him since I live in a part of the world where life is cheap and good. I earn in dollars and I spend in that country’s currency which increases my quality of life.

I could go on like that… but I think you get the point.

Money has been forever the absolute measure of happiness even though individual experience points out otherwise. 

We need to define happiness/success in broader terms because money alone isn't enough.

And, as you see, there is a way to trade for a living that really makes it exceptionally fulfilling, instead of being something that plays with your emotions constantly and wears you down. 

And it’s not about how much money you make in absolute terms, it’s about the personal freedom; it’s about the quality of your life; it’s about time, energy, health, and the emotional capital that you preserve by doing so.



What I offer in this Trading For A Living course

I will show you a proper approach to trading for a living.


Here’s what you’ll learn:


✔ I’ll reflect back at you some realities about trading for a living, and I will show you what’s the best way to go about this journey and maximize your chances of success.

✔ I’ll show you my stress-free trading strategies and how I manage my two trading accounts with the least amount of emotional resistance as possible.


✔ Trading for a living the right way is about balance and emotional preservation. Nothing else! I’ll show you a simple way to help you cultivate mental stability day after day as you run your trading business.


✔ I’ll show you 'The dirty little secret of trading' and how I earn a reliable source of income through content creation (blog, book, course….) on the side  ― which allows me to weather trading drawdowns that are an inevitable part of trading. This also helps in decreasing performance anxieties and allows me to trade to the best of my abilities. I’ll show you how you too can do that. It’s not rocket science.

✔ You’ll see how much I make from my trading business (screenshots) and I’ll share with you some important money management tips that have allowed me to travel the world for 2 consecutive years while trading and running my business.

✔ I will show you how to maximize your experience of trading and make this whole thing enjoyable and effortless.



I’m sharing my business template with you...

I’ve read somewhere that about 80% of Americans dream of starting their own business. 

If you are part of that 80%, those ideas (and many others) that I will share with you will prove to be very useful, and possibly very lucrative.

But as said earlier, it’s not really about the money; it’s about the personal freedom. I really believe that, because that’s what’s working for me. And I know for fact that is what’s working for a lot of people.


Maybe you don’t have a lot of experience in trading, maybe you do, maybe you’ve lost a ton of money, maybe you’ve made a ton of money… whatever your current situation, if you’ve been following me for a while and trust the quality of the content that I’ve been sharing with you so far, then this course is for you.

Why I'm revealing my business model...


Two reasons:


First, again, I run a business… I want to make a profit. But, I’m never going to sacrifice my integrity for money. Never! 

I don’t want to sell you a bunch of dreams like what you see online 99.99% of the time, I want to sell you REALITY. 

Because I’m tired of the scammers, the frauds, taking advantage of people’s credulity and selling a bunch of fluff.  In this course, you’re not going to get that. 

You’ll see how I run my business from A to Z so that you can replicate it if you want, or you can modify some aspects of it, take it in an entirely new direction… It’s your call, really.

The second reason is that I genuinely want to see you succeed because I know how it is to struggle. It might sound cliche but it’s true. And I want to see you improve your life, make money, and thrive as a human being.

    “First of all: the course really contains what its title makes you expect from it! And this is symptomatic for Yvan’s style: open, honest, direct - and absolutely realistic. Yvan does not sell anything: he just explains, what works for him - and what can work for anybody. And to avoid any wrong expectations: it is NOT a trading course in itself, like the hundreds of courses out there. Yvan does not talk markets, strategies, financial products etc. In the first part of the course he openly describes his style of daytrading as a showcase. It is a clever, yet easy short term strategy, which uses options in aquite uncommon way - very creative. And he explains the reasons for all the characteristics of his strategy. Worth reading as a source of food for thoughts anyway! Yet Yvan admits that trading for approx 10 hours per week might deliver good results in the long run, but with some variation shorter term. You will not make the same amount of profit month after month, there will be stronger and weaker results, depending on the market. Yvan compensates for that with the creation and sales of trading-based products and services, namely books or courses. For him the “trading business” is the total of all trading related activities that finally lead to revenues and income. In the second part of the course Yvan gets into all the details of the non-trading parts of his trading business: his experiences, things he learned, suggestions how he would do it today, and many, many useful information. Even if you are only interested in minor parts of these topics, the wealth of information and experience is enough reason to take this course. To make a long review short: this course is worth every penny! Having read some 50+ books about trading and ran through many courses, trainings, etc, I have to say that this is one of the very, very best, and 100% recommendable!!! I personally would suggest to visit Yvan’s course about Trading Psychology prior to this one - or to read any of his books. It could deepen the understanding, but it is not a must. ”

    “ I decided to seek the assistant of a course from Ivan after finding his posts on Twitter constantly hit the mark on places in my trading that seemed lacking. The structure of the course is very well laid out with the different audio, video and text modules keeping the material fresh. Ivan has a way of presenting the material in a simple easy to follow manner. The acid test was when I started to see results in my trading, the bad habits dropped of quickly (they do reappear so its a constant battle). The course wasn't long in paying for itself with that alone. I'd highly recommend the course to anyone but be warned. . . you get out what you put in! ”

    “I have attended innumerable trading courses and workshops. I have bought software and systems, had trading mentors, traded options, stocks and mini futures and was a member of so many trading groups, but none of it worked, none of that turned me into a successful trader. WHY? Very few traders are truly successful and the ones who are rarely teach. Yvan Byeajee is one of the rare ones, who trades successfully for a living and teaches. He is authentic and honestly shows you how he trades for a living and also his journey which is very similar to mine, so I can attest to it ! Your life and hence your trading career is dependent on your beliefs, your emotional state and your mental strategies. Trading is 100% psychological, including why and how you trade and which system you will follow or build. 97% of traders (only 3% of traders are consistently successful) have a hard time or categorically refuse to “believe” this. The resistance is palpable. Only you can decide whether it is worth your time to learn what beliefs you hold : which ones are supporting your trading career and which ones are not. You must be willing to self inquire. This course is an INVALUABLE TOOL to guide you on the right track, the fastest even, track to success. I highly recommend it and will be suggesting it to our students also. You are lucky to have found this course! Enjoy it and happy success in your trading! ”

    “In this course Yvan explains how he set up his trading business in a very hands on way. He shows you his own trading strategies, results and how he´s able to sustain a healthy income buy supporting his trading with additional income from books and courses, which again reduces the pressure on trading itself. I am a big fan of Yvan as he is being very transparent, honest, humble, straight to the point, and will help advise you on how to do this yourself. Yvan does everything in a simple fashion and breaks everything down step by step. There´s never any doubt on what to do, how to do it or where to go to and get it. He will explain everything to you. If you haven´t heard about this guy before, then I can thoroughly recommend you take this course. Besides this course Evan has other courses and books out that deals more with trading psychology, which is Yvan´s speciel field. The guy changed a lot of things in my trading and in my life already, you won´t find a more open "book" than this. ”
