My Identity: Trader and Investor — A Dual Force
Let me be clear: I’m not just a trader. I’m not just an investor.
I’m both, and I’ve built my name on that balance.

As a Trader
I specialize in scalp trading, day trading, and swing trading, with a sharp focus on Nasdaq. I live for the action — the heartbeat of the market. It’s fast. It’s aggressive. It’s real. The kind of trading where milliseconds matter. That’s where I thrive.
I read patterns like a second language. Technical analysis is my tool, but instinct is my weapon. I trade with discipline, not emotion. Every entry is calculated, and every exit is executed with purpose.
As an Investor
On the other hand, I smartly build wealth. I’m deep in crypto, stocks, ETFs, ETCs, funds, S&P 500, bonds, and certificates. I invest for long-term growth — strategic, patient, and always ahead of the curve.
When the world panics, I position myself. When euphoria floods the market, I cash in.
Buy the fear. Sell the euphoria. That’s my core strategy. And it’s served me well.
I am Corrado Garibaldi, and most people know me as Lord Conrad. I am a music lover, but I’ve also spent years getting into the world of investing and trading.
I want to discuss my story, how I trade, and what it means to be a trader in 2025 with you.
Where It All Began
I’m Italian, and I did not study finance or economics in school.
I never attended business school or any other classes of the kind.
I started investing some years ago simply because I wanted more control over my money. I started by learning as much as possible, which meant reading books, browsing tutorials online, and doing some small trades to know how the market is.
What made me move forward was the combination of traditional investing and active trading. I’ve done years of practice, made my fair share of mistakes, learned on the way, and piece-by-piece put together a system that works for me. This is a method that has enabled me to be profitable all the time,e and I feel proud of how I have turned into a consistent trader.
What’s My Approach?
I always ensure that people know that there is a difference between trading and investing. When you invest, you keep things such as stocks or bonds for years, not just a little while. Trading is when you buy and sell goods frequently to take advantage of rapid market movements.
I have organized my portfolio so that I concentrate on two things: I invested 99% of my money in long-term investments, and only 1% into more frequent trading. With this combination, I can grow my money from stable companies and still take a shot at quick wins when trading seems promising.
My Trading Style
If you want to know what makes a good trader, I would mention that it is a sound method and the right attitude. I conduct my trade after keenly observing the trends and facts of the market. I do not rely on guesses and advice from people when making decisions. My decisions are made upon the basis of such things as stock charts, company reports, or what’s going on in the news. This is how I do not make decisions based on guessing, but on what I see in the data.
Psychology is huge in trading. Prices can change a lot in markets and can easily be ruled by fear and greed. However, a genuine trader stays calm. I remain cool and do not alter my plan regardless of what is going on in the market. That is why I do not end up selling out of fear or trying to regain what I lost, which is risky.
What’s in My Portfolio?
I mainly invest in big and popular firms that are financially sound. I have shares in Apple, Microsoft, Tesla, Amazon, Meta (formerly Facebook), Alphabet (Google), and LVMH, the luxury brand giant.
As far as bonds are concerned, I prefer those that pay handsomely but are not very risky. Using both stocks and bonds, I can chase growth whilst protecting myself. Stocks are capable of increasing a lot, but they are volatile. Bonds help me to smooth my returns and control risk.
What Have I Earned?
I do not discuss my profits in public, but I can say my strategy has generated consistent earnings over time. I have made it work by investing my money in various assets and being patient before trading. I also keep learning constantly. As markets are not the same at all times, I ensure I am updated, and if I have to change my approach, then I do it. Being educated at all times is the surest way of ensuring that my profits remain high.
Skills That Matter
It is not just about making a profit as a professional trader. You must be disciplined, reliable, and constantly working on your skills. I’m glad that I have a reputation for careful trading and good performance.
I’ve been working for years on my social media presence, sharing trading ideas and insights on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. I like sharing my knowledge with others and acquiring new things from them as well. My engagement with others keeps me up to date and on my toes.
Keeping It in Your Favor
Nobody wins every trade. You are going to experience some losses. What matters is a good win/loss ratio; you win more trades or make more money from your wins than your losses. I always use stop-loss orders to ensure that my losses are not too significant, and I never put too much money into one trade. That way, you do not lose all the profits from one mistake.
