Navigating Macro Trading: The Story Behind Against All Odds

I'm Jason Perz—a professional portfolio manager, commercial real estate investor, retired BMX pro, and 15 years clean.

I don’t hide my past. Because that’s where the lessons live.

I'm Jason Perz—a professional portfolio manager, commercial real estate investor, retired BMX pro, and 15 years clean.

I don’t hide my past. Because that’s where the lessons live.

In recovery, there’s a saying: "We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity." Trading gave me that structure—a system bigger than my emotions. One clean day at a time, one clean trade at a time.

I created Against All Odds Research for traders who want to stop chasing noise and start following process. For people who want to win—but want to do it with intention, with rules, and with honesty.

I didn’t learn this from a textbook. I learned it by blowing up accounts, taking trades I shouldn’t have, and sitting across from traders who were way better than me.

Guys who told me:

  • "You’re not here to be right. You’re here to make money."

  • "The best trades feel the worst when you take them."

  • "Don’t confuse activity with progress."

Now, with 22 years of investing, 15 years of active trading, and a track record managing eight-figure portfolios, I share what actually works. No hype. No theories. Just the stuff I use every day—with my own capital on the line.
