“EDUCATE SHARE AND GROW TOGETHER”

The Mission

I created ACE Trading Club to do something the industry desperately lacks:

✔ Teach traders how to think — not follow signals

✔ Share every entry, exit, and trade transparently

✔ Build a community based on discipline, consistency, and honesty

✔ Grow together through education, structure, and mindset

Whether you’re new or experienced, ACE gives you a repeatable system, not a gamble.

KARL IVORY

FOUNDER & CHIEF MARKET STRATEGIST

15+ Years of Market Experience • Full-Time Trader • Verified Live Results

My name is Karl, and I’m from Southern California — a former football player, engineer, and someone who once had the same questions nearly every new trader asks:

  1. How do I take control of my financial future?

  2. How do I make money in the markets?

  3. What exactly is a stock?

  4. Where do I even begin?

This is my story.

The Spark

While working as an engineer, I saw a Mega Millions jackpot hit $250 million.

And I asked myself the question most people secretly ask:

“If this actually happened to me… would I even know how to manage it?”

That moment sent me down a path of curiosity.

Shortly after, a simple ING commercial about investing caught my attention — and I opened my first trading account.

My first trade was in 2009. I bought ONE share of MSFT.

The $9.99 commission immediately taught me two valuable lessons:

  • you must manage your cost,

  • you must manage your risk.

From that single trade, a new obsession started.

The Journey

For the next decade, I studied everything: long-term investing, swing trading, day trading, options, market structure, liquidity, price action, psychology, and risk.

I discovered something important:

Trading isn’t about predicting.

It’s about reacting with discipline.

Every year I refined what worked and removed what didn’t.

I learned how to stay small enough to survive losing streaks — and scale into winning setups with confidence.
