About Joel Income Journal
Welcome 👋 I’m Joel, from Singapore — a father of two, a lifelong learner, and someone who believes in building income systems that work for you, not the other way around.
A few years ago, I dove head-first into the world of algorithmic trading. Like many beginners, I chased “easy wins,” bought random EAs from social media, tried copy-trade services, and blew a few accounts — losing close to $10,000 along the way. Most of those systems failed because they relied on risky martingale setups or oversized positions.
That experience taught me an important lesson: real passive income requires structure, testing, and discipline.
So I started building my own bots instead — using StrategyQuant X to create and stress-test strategies systematically. Over time, I also began investing in high-yield ETFs and REITs, combining active automation with long-term dividend income.
Today, my goal is simple:
To help everyday people use trading bots and income-generating ETFs to grow their money consistently and take the first step toward financial freedom.
What You’ll Find Here
✅ Free trading strategies and insights built in StrategyQuant X (for MT4/MT5)
✅ Backtests, live results, and lessons learned from running bots
✅ Practical guides on high-yield ETFs and dividend investing

Why I’m Doing This
