From CA Dropout to a 6-Figure Stock Trader: The Inspiring Journey of Kapil Joshi

“You need a degree to get a job, but it takes dedication, determination, commitment, and the right mindset to build a fortune through trading.” — Kapil Joshi

Meet Kapil Joshi, a remarkable success story who transformed his life from a CA dropout to a 6-Figure stock trader and Co-Founder of EquiMinions, a financial advisory firm managing over ₹1 Crore in assets under management (AUM).

Kapil began his journey in the stock market at just 18 years old. Like many newcomers, he faced significant challenges in the early years—struggling with a lack of knowledge, account drawdowns, strategy failures, and a ruined mindset. With no mentorship and falling into the “hero to zero” options expiry trap, frustration seemed inevitable.

But his unwavering five years of commitment led him to develop a profitable trading system, consistently delivering 50%+ annual returns for himself and his clients over the past years.

Kapil’s trading philosophy is simple yet powerful: “Trade what you understand.” After thoroughly testing various asset classes and trading styles, he discovered what works best for him. Today, he focuses exclusively on Equity and Derivatives (Futures), employing a momentum-based trading approach that maximizes his trading potential.

Kapil’s vision is clear: to empower others with the knowledge and tools needed to build wealth through trading.

He started with just a few thousand rupees, proving that if he can do it, so can you!
