Jonas Schleypen

CEO and Co-founder

Experienced trader and technology builder. Writes on behavioral trading patterns, CFD markets, and what 500,000+ retail accounts reveal about trader performance.

At Hoc-Trade since 202175 articles published

Jonas Schleypen is the CEO and co-founder of Hoc-Trade. He leads the company's product strategy, research direction, and broker partnerships, and is the principal author of Hoc-Trade's CEO-voice content on Reddit, YouTube, and the company blog.

Jonas brings over 15 years of active trading experience across forex, gold, oil, indices, and other CFD markets, managing both external and proprietary capital. That includes accounts ranging from small retail sizes to accounts in the seven figures, giving him direct experience with how behavioral patterns compound as capital scales. The initial set of algorithms that became TradeMedic came from his own Excel-based tracking of his personal trading. The patterns he found in his own data, and the dollar amounts attached to them, became the foundation of the behavioral detection logic the product runs today.

Before Hoc-Trade, Jonas worked as an M&A strategy consultant at KPMG and Alvarez & Marsal, where he advised on company valuations, restructuring, and strategic repositioning across multiple industries. That consulting background informs how Hoc-Trade approaches research methodology and how commercial partnerships with brokers are structured.

At Hoc-Trade, Jonas works most closely with Steven Tan (Head of Data) on research methodology, with the backend and frontend teams on product development, and with broker partners on integration and white-label deployments. He is the authorized representative for Hoc-Trade Technology Pte. Ltd. in public and press matters.

One Trade a Day in One Symbol: Myth or Reality? What 500,000+ Accounts Show

Trading coaches teach it and nobody has tested it. Single-symbol focus lifts the profitable share to 25.6%, fewer than two trades a day to 33.0%, and doing both reaches 46.2%, 2.5 times the baseline. Most of that group still lose money.

How Many Trades Per Day Should You Make? The number is lower than you think

Traders placing fewer than two trades a day are profitable 33.0% of the time, against an 18.2% baseline. The decline is front-loaded: nearly all of it happens before the tenth trade, and the curve is flat from there to the heaviest traders.

What Your TradeMedic Report Shows: A Full Walkthrough

Most traders can name their bad habits but not rank them. This walkthrough goes through every section of the TradeMedic report using a real account, from detection and dollar quantification to the ranked list of what to work on first.

Trading Fees by Instrument: What a Spread Really Costs Once You Measure It Properly

A one-pip spread and a two-point spread cannot be compared until you measure them against how far each instrument moves. Do that, and the cheapest-looking markets turn out to be the most expensive, which changes who profits and who does not.
