Ross Cameron hails from southern Vermont, where he spent most of his life. After completing his diploma course from the Dublin School in New Hampshire, Cameron joined Vermont College and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. The declining job prospects due to the 2008 Great Recession made him find alternative ways to make money, marking his debut in day trading.
Building a Trading Empire
The reknown trader Ross Cameron started documenting his day trading success journey in 2012. He started a chat room and initiated trading workshops for day traders in 2014, where he taught stock selection, risk management, and market entry points. Cameron published his first book, “How to Day Trade”, in 2015, to reach more traders.
A Remarkable Trading Journey
The financial mentor started an ambitious challenge in 2017 by opening a micro trading account with $583.15 to put the strategies he uses in larger accounts into practice. Surprisingly, the account Ross Cameron started his career with grew into an investment worth $100k within 45 days.
The account balance had exceeded $335k by the end of 2017, prompting Ross Cameron to target $1 million; he achieved the goal he achieved by 2019. His account had exceeded $10 million by the end of 2022. He made a considerable portion of this amount in a single week in February 2021, when GameStop stocks skyrocketed.
