This week, we had the pleasure of speaking with Juno.
He walked us through his entire trading journey, from early crypto wins and painful losses to the discipline, structure, and strategy that helped him become a consistent, full-time futures trader.
Juno’s story is one of resilience, focus, and building a process-driven approach that prioritizes freedom over fast profits. In this episode, he shared powerful insights about trading psychology, routines, and how he turned setbacks into fuel for growth.
Juno’s trading journey began during the 2017 crypto boom. Like many, he was drawn in by the hype and made some early money during the bull run. But when the market collapsed in 2018, everything changed.
By 2019, he had lost his gains and realized he needed more than luck to survive in the markets. He explored forex next, but struggled with the structure and timing requirements. Eventually, he stepped away from trading entirely in 2020.
In 2022, Juno came back to trading, but this time with clarity. It wasn’t just about the money anymore. A health diagnosis pushed him to seek real freedom. That urgency fueled his focus. He found futures trading, began studying ICT concepts, and committed himself fully.
He spent months isolating, learning, and practicing. The goal was simple: build a career that gave him control over his time, income, and lifestyle. And it worked.
Now based in Spain, Juno keeps a clean, simple routine. He wakes up around 10 a.m., gets coffee, clears his head, and doesn’t open charts until just before the New York session (3:30–5:00 PM local time).
Why the delay? It helps him avoid overanalyzing or forming bias from pre-market action. This way, he shows up fresh, focused, and emotionally neutral key for consistency.
He ends his day by detaching from trading spending time with friends, hitting the gym, and doing normal life things. For him, that separation between trading and personal life is essential for mental clarity.
Juno’s strategy centers around breaker blocks, specifically “unicorns” — failed order blocks that turn into new support or resistance. He uses these with an indicator that plots the daily candle’s open, high, low, and close (OHLC), creating key zones of manipulation and reversal.
Here’s how he trades:
The method is sharp, data-backed, and built for consistency over hype.

Juno is a big believer that you can’t eliminate emotions, you can only reduce their influence.
His solution? A weekly emotional journal.
Whenever he takes a loss, he asks:
This weekly review habit has helped him avoid tilt, revenge trading, and overconfidence. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about understanding yourself better over time.
“You’re not trying to kill emotions. You’re trying to live with them, and not let them drive your trading decisions.”
Juno credits part of his success to learning from other traders. He didn’t reinvent the wheel. Instead, he took a working process from someone he trusted, and then refined it to fit his own preferences, strengths, and timing.
That’s how his unicorn model evolved: it’s built on solid foundations but shaped around how he likes to trade. In his words, it’s important not just to copy someone else’s playbook, but to understand it, test it, and adapt it.
Drawdown doesn’t shake him like it used to. Now, when things go off track, he returns to his journal, his stats, and the bigger picture. He knows his framework works over time.
The same is true for winning streaks. If anything, those make him slow down. Overconfidence can creep in when things are going well, so he uses journaling and reflection to stay grounded.
Juno believes that no matter how structured your system is, trading is never 100% mechanical. As long as there’s a human hand on the mouse, emotion will play a role. The key is to reduce how often emotion interferes, and to recognize when it does. That’s why he tracks performance and journaling together. The system handles the setup. The journal handles the self-awareness.
Today, Juno is consistently profitable and trades full-time. But his biggest lesson isn’t just about charts or indicators.
“Don’t stress too much in the beginning. If you’re passionate, it will click. Just focus on building your process, and enjoy the journey.”
Juno’s story is a reminder that consistency doesn’t come from chasing signals or mastering one strategy. It comes from committing to the process, day in and day out, until trading becomes something deeper than just charts and setups.
He didn’t rely on luck. He built structure, tracked his growth, adapted what worked, and learned to stay grounded through wins and losses.
If you’re serious about trading for the long haul, there’s a lot to learn from Juno, not just in how he trades, but in how he thinks, reflects, and lives.
