Ariel:

Ariel Hernandez, or "@realsimpleAriel" on X, is a swing and position trader who kicked off his trading journey with a bang, turning $30,000 into $3.5 million in just 16 months back in 2020-2021. Before trading, he had a rough patch, getting into some legal trouble in 2018 that led to a short prison stint. Now, he runs Market Pulse, where he teaches traders of all levels his strategies, focusing on swing trading to scale up portfolios. He’s all about finding strong stocks and sharing his process, often while chilling with his fiancée and their two golden doodles.
