FOUNDER & TRADING SPECIALIST
Sebastian DrPips Tudor, MSc
Financially free by 37. With a background in Industrial Automation, I have managed projects in the Machinery Industry with combined budgets exceeding €20 million. My journey into Trading and Investing began in 2014, when I uncovered the limitless potential of the financial markets. This discovery sparked an incredible journey in trading and investing. It all started with ten S7 Bitcoin miners, which produced a modest amount of BTC daily. My spare time was devoted to mastering the intricacies of trading, attending various workshops, and extensively backtesting strategies in Forex Tester. Over the years, I've developed simple yet effective strategies that have consistently generated returns. Today, I regularly trade and invest with my own capital, maintaining a six-figure portfolio in the financial markets. In 2022, I took a leap forward by founding this academic trading institute. My goal is to share my knowledge and passion for trading and cryptocurrency with people worldwide. Our academy stands out by offering a unique blend of practical knowledge and experience, setting us apart from other trading schools. With over a decade of experience, a proven track record since 2014, and unwavering passion, I am committed to helping you elevate your trading skills. Join me on this exciting journey!

This shift allowed me to delve deeply into the world of Trading and personal development, leading me to acquire a comprehensive understanding of Trading as a crucial part of my financial freedom strategy. During this journey, I had the privilege of meeting Sebastian, who became my mentor in Trading. Our shared passion for education and financial independence led us to collaborate on bringing these outstanding courses to the Spanish-speaking community, where I leverage my fluency as a native speaker. Additionally, I provide coaching in both English and Spanish, focusing on Trading, personal growth, and leadership development.

AMBASSADOR & COMMUNITY BUILDER
Alain Bendeler
With a bachelor’s degree in Finance and a master’s in Management, I have a strong academic foundation that complements my practical journey in trading. As the Ambassador for the Institute of Trading, I’m on an exciting mission to achieve financial independence while helping others pursue the same goal. My own journey began with a drive to step away from traditional income sources and gain control over my financial future, and I’m committed to embodying the Institute’s vision as I learn, grow, and succeed. In the long term, my goal is to bring this knowledge forward to those standing where I am today, empowering others to take their first steps into trading with confidence and clarity. In my role, I bring people together through meetups, workshops, and social events, creating a space for like-minded individuals who are motivated to reach financial freedom. I believe in building a supportive community where everyone feels welcome to share, learn, and grow together. As someone with a passion for patterns, structures, and logical thinking, I thrive on mastering the complexities of trading and passing that knowledge along in an accessible way. My approachable personality helps me connect with others, making it easy for people to reach out and ask questions, no matter where they are on their journey. Representing the Institute of Trading means more to me than just a role: it’s a personal commitment. I had the privilege of meeting Sebastian, the founder, at a special event. His genuine dedication to helping others achieve financial freedom resonated deeply with me, and over time, he has become not only my mentor but also a dear friend. His mission to uplift others aligns with my core value of helping people, making me proud to carry the company’s message forward. As part of my educational and supportive role, I share my own “zero to hero” journey, showing others that success is within reach with the right guidance and determination. New members and students can always reach out to me through various channels, and I’m here to support them every step of the way as they embark on their own journeys. Looking to the future, I envision the Institute of Trading growing on an international scale, offering training in multiple languages across different countries.
