About Jonathan Rose

Jonathan Rose is a veteran trader and educator with more than two decades of experience navigating the fast-paced world of professional trading. He began his career in 1997 on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, managing Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures during the height of the dot-com boom.

By 2003, Jonathan had risen to Director of Trading at a top proprietary trading firm, where he managed a team of traders and oversaw complex risk strategies. He later served as a market maker on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), the largest and most influential options exchange in the world, executing large-volume trades in some of the market’s most volatile names.

In 2015, Jonathan launched Masters in Trading with a mission to bring Wall Street-level tools and techniques to everyday investors. His divergence-based trading strategy — which focuses on identifying price dislocations across correlated assets — has helped thousands of students spot high-probability trades and sharpen their edge in the market.

Jonathan’s recent track record includes numerous short-term winners, including gains of 700% in 16 days, 245.13% in 25 days, and 183.78% in 14 days. His work emphasizes fast-moving opportunities, risk-aware trading, and real-time education delivered through his popular daily livestreams, four premium trading services, and proprietary tools.

He has trained everyone from complete beginners to experienced professionals — including chefs, doctors, and hedge fund analysts — all with the goal of helping investors think and trade like the pros.
