Who is Hanzo?
Hanzo, a full-time trader with over a decade of experience navigating the Forex Market, is well known for his Youtube Channel, where he shares valuable insights and knowledge since 2017.
Unlike those who hinge on personal wealth as validation for teaching, Hanzo’s worldwide student base stands as a testament to his altruistic commitment in generously sharing his vast expertise.
The UpBRINGING
Hanzo, the youngest of six siblings, grew up in a single-mother household in the countryside of Kuantan, Malaysia. Throughout his childhood, he bore witness to his mother’s relentless struggle to sell flatbread from their modest home just to make ends meet. Rising at 3 am to prepare the bread before selling it, she worked tirelessly until noon, with her day ending around 9 pm after kneading dough by hand. Remarkably, she maintained this grueling routine without a single day of rest for nearly 20 years.
Despite lacking the privilege of formal education herself, his mother remained resolute. Witnessing her peers thrive as engineers and doctors, she diligently instilled in her children the significance of education, yearning for them to seize the opportunities she could only dream of. Inspired by his mother’s unwavering sacrifices, Hanzo devoted himself to academic excellence, achieving perfect grades at every educational level.
The Birth of a Hero
Hanzo’s life took a monumental turn during his 3rd semester at university. The world he knew shattered when his mother collapsed while preparing the flatbread, diagnosed with a debilitating brain aneurysm. Rushing to her side at the hospital, Hanzo grappled with an agonizing choice:
To leave his studies to care for the woman who was his beacon of inspiration.
Despite his inner turmoil, he heeded his siblings’ advice and balanced lectures with tireless visits to the hospital on daily basis.
Throughout this tumultuous period, his mother remained in a coma, her future hanging by a thread. It was only when Hanzo made a solemn vow to stand by her side that she began to show signs of improvement. However, upon her discharge, the woman who left the hospital was a mere shadow of her former self. Each step she took was slower, her speech faltered, and independence seemed a distant dream.
The Hero’s Journey
Realizing that the academic path wasn’t for him, Hanzo ventured into the realm of online business while following his siblings’ advice to complete his bachelor’s degree. While maintaining his grades, he dedicated most of his time to exploring various business ventures. He attempted selling supplements, merchandise, and dropshipping, even delving into a few Ponzi schemes. Ultimately, he discovered forex trading after falling victim to a gold Ponzi scheme that drained all of his scholarship funds.
Throughout his remaining college days, he immersed himself in studying the forex market. He scoured forums and discussions, resulting in his charts becoming cluttered with trading indicators that were more confusing than helpful. He knew that he needed someone to guide him if he really wanted this to work.
Upon graduation, he began earning a modest income from part-time work, which he promptly used to pay supposed trading experts in hopes of learning the craft. Nearly every paycheck went to these dubious gurus, as he believed that persistence would eventually lead him to the right person. Finally, he encountered a mentor, a veteran trader named Mansor Sapari, who taught him the Supply and Demand Trading Strategies. Finally, a trading method that actually made sense.
The Leap of Faith
Hanzo’s life took an unexpected turn with a promising job offer from a reputable company, promising a substantial salary. His heart brimmed with anticipation, seeing this as an opportunity to fortify his side hustle as a Forex Trader, the first paycheck arrived like a ray of hope, the largest sum ever gracing his bank account. Without a second thought, every penny was swiftly channeled into his trading account, a testament to his unwavering dedication.
But fate dealt a harsh blow on the third week of the following month. The dreaded day unfolded as his mother collapsed once more, falling into a debilitating coma. Urgency surged within him, urging him to rush to her aid. However, the shackles of corporate obligations held him fast. His supervisor, unmoved by the urgency, demanded he remain until day’s end, threatening to withhold his month’s wages.
In that defining moment, Hanzo stood at the crossroads. With unyielding determination, he took a leap of faith, severing ties with the company and relinquishing the security of his job for a higher calling. He embraced the responsibility of caregiving for his ailing mother.
Stripped of financial reserves, his trading account became his sole fortress. Every resource, every ounce of strength, was dedicated to caring for his now paralyzed mother. His unwavering love and sacrificial dedication stood as a testament to a son’s unwavering devotion, embodying the essence of profound courage and selflessness.
Light of Hope in the Darkest of Days
After resigning from his job to care for his mother, Hanzo relied solely on trading, skillfully compounding small accounts into significant profits. His confidence in his abilities eventually led to arrogance, resulting in the complete wipeout of his account. This devastating loss sent him spiraling into a week of madness, unable to come to terms with his failures. However, within this chaotic period, he rediscovered a forgotten skill—one he had discarded in favor of more advanced methods. This revelation dawned on him: the core principles were the essence of the advanced setups.
During this time, his mother’s condition stabilized under his supervision. Seeking her blessing, he embarked on a six-month job hunt, aiming to secure funds for trading. Simultaneously, he envisioned finding a life partner, foreseeing imminent success after leaving the job.
No longer a dream
Rumors circulated that he achieved millionaire status by the age of 26, but he often denied such claims and insisted he is still the same poor kid who trades for a living just to make ends meet, allowing him to always be with his loved ones.
Despite his modesty, Hanzo remained true to his promise to his beloved mother. Their journey together unfolded like a dream—the world opening its arms to them both. He spared no expense, treating her to culinary delights that mirrored the value of a month’s worth of expenses. They embarked on an opulent cruise, sailing across vast oceans, while he unveiled the heavens from the lap of luxury.
‘Mom, do you think this year I can be a millionaire?’ he had asked.Her reply, ‘Not this year, but next year you will.’
A smile curved his lips as he gazed ahead.
A Vision Unveiled
Recalling the days when he fell victim to scams orchestrated by fake gurus and incurred losses in the market, Hanzo felt immense gratitude for those willing to share their trading wisdom. While teaching might be considered noble, in the trading realm, educators often face skepticism akin to scammers, despite not being the same . At present, Hanzo could retire young, relishing family time. However, he ponders how different his journey would be had his mentors chosen a similar path.
As the 2019 pandemic ravaged, he remained sheltered with his family, witnessing job losses and distress. Hanzo’s heart stirred, urging him to either mind his own business or take action. The surge of dubious ‘gurus’ exploiting the vulnerable triggered a resolve within him.
He illuminated a path by freely sharing his wisdom on his YouTube channel, guiding new traders from the basics of setting up a trading platform to advanced market strategies. No fees or conditions—just a beacon of accessible knowledge guiding aspiring traders toward success and growth in their trading careers.
