From Boxer to Trader: Court Currency’s Journey to Consistent Payouts in 6 Months
In this episode of The Forged Trader Podcast, host Gates Adams sits down with Court Currency, a former top-35 ranked professional boxer turned full-time trader. Court’s journey from fighting in Madison Square Garden to fighting emotional battles in the markets is a powerful testament to the discipline, mindset, and commitment required to succeed in trading—and in life.
Listeners will get an inside look at Court’s early struggles in the Wild West of binary options, his transition into Forex, and ultimately finding consistency through funded accounts with Apex Trader Funding. He shares how years of boxing gave him the mental edge he needed to build discipline, how journaling transformed his results, and why his turning point came after over five years of trial, error, and hustle.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why discipline in life translates into discipline in trading
• How journaling and review systems helped Court shift from random results to reliable profits
• The emotional challenges of trading and how to manage them with strategy and structure
• Why Court believes trading funded accounts is the best place to start
• How he developed his “Price Wave Theory” rooted in ICT-style concepts like liquidity and market structure
• What it takes to go from funded evaluations to consistent payouts
• The long-term vision: from building wealth for his sons to managing live capital with confidence
• Why building an empire starts with one consistent trade at a time
This isn’t just another trader interview—it’s a masterclass in resilience, self-mastery, and the power of knowing your “why.” If you’re feeling stuck in your trading journey or questioning whether consistency is even possible, this episode will reignite your belief.

RISK DISCLOSURE:
Futures and Forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses is material points, which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results, and all of which can adversely affect trading results.
