Lindsay Duff

Meet Lindsay Duff, founder and CEO of Responsible Day Trading. If you could rewind the clocks back to 2005, you would see a very different Lindsay - one who bartended at Chuy's Tex-Mex Restaurant in The Woodlands, TX while raising two young children by herself.After persuasively requesting the opportunity to prove herself to a customer that just so happened to run a day trading academy, Lindsay's trading journey took off like a rocket. She quickly learned all the ins and outs of the day trading world.She spent three months taking notes, learning, and absorbing information, and she soon found herself not only trading, but running a live trading room and revamping curriculum. After three years with this company, Lindsay went on to help start and refine three more day trading companies - each with their own strategy and "secret" to being a profitable trader.She soon discovered a few key traits to each of these companies:There were huge chunks missing to the day trading puzzleThey kept adding more and more items that would increase the cost for learning, yet the students weren’t really learning anything newThe owners of these companies cared less and less about their students successStudents were forced into a box to trade a certain wayAfter years of frustration with how companies were teaching people how to trade, Lindsay took matters into her own hands.She took what WAS working - flowing with the market instead of trying to force it, allowing students to forge strategies embracing their individuality and uniqueness- and developed her own curriculum. She decided to open a school with integrity, one that valued education and the success of its students over profit.With all of this in mind, in 2017 Responsible Day Trading was born.Lindsay continues to leave her mark on the trading world with the founding of Uprofit so her traders have an opportunity to get funded while continuing to take on new coaching students every day.She currently lives in Sugar Land, TX with her son and delightful dog Duchess."I will never claim to be the best trader in the world or some market guru. I’m just a responsible chick that gets it... No one is a perfect trader—we’re just all out there, trying our best and hoping to help others see the best in themselves as well!"
