ABOUT

For over 25 years, I’ve been immersed in the world of product design and development—securing patents, building companies, and bringing products to life both domestically and across Asia. I remain actively involved in a range of business ventures to this day. Outside of business, I’m a passionate private pilot and aviation enthusiast, having built and flown multiple experimental aircraft.

My entrepreneurial path eventually led me to a deep fascination with the financial markets. I began with day trading stocks and later transitioned into futures. In November 2021, I discovered Apex Trader Funding—a moment that reshaped my trading journey. I dove headfirst into mastering technical indicators, timeframes, Fibonacci levels, market profile, order flow, footprint charts, market internals, and platform nuances. At the same time, I worked tirelessly to overcome the psychological pitfalls every trader faces: overtrading, impatience, FOMO, and poor risk management.

Despite building a technically sound strategy, discipline remained a challenge. I often reflected on the famous quote attributed to economist John Maynard Keynes: “Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”

Everything changed in August 2022, when I received an unexpected phone call from Darrell Martin, Founder and CEO of Apex Trader Funding. His candid advice transformed my mindset. I started trading smaller, exercising more patience, and waiting for truly high-probability setups.

The results spoke for themselves. Between August and December 2022, I generated over $1 million in profits in just 82 trading days.

Today, I continue to actively trade with Apex Trader Funding—and I’ve also joined the team as Director of Business Development. My role focuses on helping scale our marketing efforts and strengthening our position as the premier prop firm in the industry.

The title “Million Dollar Day Trader” isn’t just a personal milestone—it’s a nod to the mentors, tools, and platforms that were instrumental in my success. Every company and product linked on this site is something I actively use and genuinely believe in.

Trade responsibly.

I’m Vince Koehn—also known as the Million Dollar Day Trader.
