Our Story: From Vision to Revolution
The story of Trading Passive is one of passion, perseverance, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Our founders, Taki and Merouane, embarked on their investment journeys independently before fate brought them together. Taki, a finance and tech enthusiast, had always been captivated by numbers and their potential to be transformed into powerful software models. On the other hand, Merouane came from a sales and marketing background, built his wealth through real estate investments in Canada while also harboring a deep love for trading stocks and options. Both found themselves drawn into the world of forex, CFDs, and cryptocurrencies a world of immense potential but equally immense risk
Like many, Taki and Merouane faced the harsh realities of the trading world: losses, setbacks, sleepless nights, and, unfortunately, scams. However, these challenges only fueled their determination. They knew there had to be a better way, a solution that could offer retail investors an opportunity to succeed, one that provided a higher standard of service and superior products while allowing full control over their funds.
In 2021, Taki founded Trading Passive with a vision to create a solution that could change the landscape of algorithmic trading for retail investors. Merouane, having recognized the potential and shared the same ambition, joined him shortly after. Their first major achievement came with the launch of the Johannesburg Algorithm, inspired by their African roots. It proved to be a significant milestone, remaining active and profitable to this day.
But they didn’t stop there. Taki and Merouane knew they were onto something bigger an opportunity to redefine what was possible in algorithmic trading. The next months were filled with more sleepless nights, intensive testing, and substantial investments. After much stress, hard work, and innovation, they finally unveiled their breakthrough: the New York Algorithm, which trades Nasdaq. Unlike many in the industry, this algorithm did not rely on risky martingale or grid strategies. Instead, it operated with a strict stop loss and take profit mechanism, placing only one trade per day. The algorithm’s name, New York, reflects its specialization in trading Nasdaq.
Trading Passive stands as a testament to Taki and Merouane’s belief that anyone with a clear vision and relentless determination can create something exceptional. It’s more than just a trading software; it’s a promise that with the right tools, discipline, and passion, retail investors can truly have the upper hand in a market dominated by large institutions.
Today, Trading Passive is more than a software company it’s a global movement. Through their Skool community, Taki and Merouane provide free education to empower retail investors, sharing essential insights and strategies. They also co-host the Money on Steroids podcast, where they interview entrepreneurs who have built wealth through alternative investments. Trading Passive now combines innovative software with valuable knowledge, helping individuals worldwide take control of their financial futures.
