Introduction
Last time we featured Geoffrey, a registered nurse who traded futures on the side and withdrew $13,000 in just six trading days. Since then, he’s continued his winning streak — his latest withdrawal added $14,000 in only six days, bringing his total withdrawals to $30,500. What makes this even more impressive? Geoffrey balances his demanding nursing shifts while trading futures on the side, and he’s doing it with remarkable precision.
Let’s take a closer look at how he’s been able to sustain this level of performance.
Geoffrey’s Trading Strategy
Trading the E-mini S&P 500 (ES) and E-mini Nasdaq 100 (NQ) through NinjaTrader, Geoffrey still trades a scalping strategy that has its edge in short-term momentum. Like any good trader, he starts his trading day by reading the news and checking for anything that could move the markets, then takes quick, controlled trades. His average holding time is only 1 minute and 29 seconds, which is more in line with momentum scalping, as anything below 30 seconds is regarded as more aggressive.
This strategy paid off again, maintaining a high 79% win rate, a profit factor of 1.52, and a whopping average daily profit of $1,911. His average winning trade netted $120, while his average losing trade cost him $318, resulting in a risk-to-reward ratio (RRR) of 0.38.
Why is This Interesting?
Because this is something that is really only possible on the OneUp Trader funded trader program. Maintaining a system like this on a personal account would be nearly impossible because there would eventually be a drawdown that wipes out the account. With OneUp Trader’s funded trader program, Geoffrey withdrew his profits before that happened and then returned to the evaluation to secure another funded account, risk-free.
That’s the key advantage of the funded route: you can trade, withdraw, and reset when needed without ever risking your own capital.
Fast-Track Back to Funding
Traders at the OneUp Trader funded trader program can get funded as many times as they like. There are absolutely no restrictions; they can also get funded on up to three accounts at a time! If a funded trader loses their account, they can simply go back to the evaluation using the express funding option.
Express Funding allows traders to pass the Evaluation and get funded in just 5 days instead of the usual 10 trading days for regular accounts. Additionally, there is an expedited funding process after passing the evaluation without waiting for several days.
Traders have an exclusive opportunity to sign up for the Express Funding account option within 30 days of losing their funded accounts, enabling them to get back to trading with funded capital as quickly as possible.

OneUp Trader Experience
When Geoffrey was asked about his OneUp experience, he summed it up in three words: “Fun, easy, and straightforward.”
He discovered OneUp Trader through a friend and rated his overall experience a 10/10, giving a 5/5 for ease of use. What stood out most to him were the simple rules, quick setup, and positive, supportive community.
From the moment a trader signs up, OneUp Trader provides everything needed to get started — credentials, setup guides, and 24/7 live support via chat, phone, or screenshare, ensuring a smooth experience from evaluation to funding.
Ending Off
Geoffrey’s results speak for themselves. $33,500 in withdrawals, all while working full-time as a nurse. He didn’t overhaul his strategy or chase new setups; he stuck to what works: quick, momentum-based scalping on the ES and NQ, using the structure and safety net of the OneUp Trader funded program.
This kind of consistency, with a strategy that most traders couldn’t run on a personal account, is exactly why the funded route makes sense. Geoffrey trades, withdraws, and resets when needed, without risking his own capital. And thanks to Express Funding, he’s able to get back in the game fast, without missing a beat.
We can’t wait to see how much Geoffrey will withdraw next and are thrilled to have him as a trader!
