-- When it comes to real-deal trading mentors in Malaysia’s investor circle, Alex Lau Jian Hua is a name that always stands out.
He’s not just a key strategist at PhillipCapital, but also a solid pillar for many local investors who are working hard to grow their wealth. His background, professional credentials, and deep understanding of what retail traders really face in Malaysia, all these make him one of the most respected finance mentors in the country.
Alex graduated from National University of Singapore, majoring in Finance. He kickstarted his career at the heart of global finance, having worked at top-tier institutions like JPMorgan and Citibank. He’s gained deep experience in global asset allocation, stock trading, and risk control. Certified as both a CFA and FRM, Alex is that rare kind of mentor who’s got both solid theory and real hands-on market chops.
Through his career, Alex has seen multiple market booms and busts across the globe.
He lives by this belief: “There’s no forever opportunity in the market — only forever risk control.” And he applies this mindset in every single trade and every teaching session. After returning from Wall Street, he focused fully on the Malaysian stock market, guiding local investors and institutions with his international lens and local insight.
8 Rounds of Live Trading Leadership， Thousands of Students Turned Their Portfolios Around
Since 2019, Alex has been the lead mentor in PhillipCapital’s hands-on investor bootcamps. Over the past eight rounds, he designed and personally led the Institutional Group Strategy Compounding Plan, known for its stable, structured system. Each round walks students through everything — from stock selection and fund management to timing and risk control.
For many retail investors, this was their first real taste of trading like the institutions.
· Rounds 1–4 focused on “small steps, broad exposure” to avoid chasing and panic selling. Average gains topped 100%.
· Rounds 5–6 trained students on reading institutional fund flows and doing intraday trades. Many beginners saw first-time portfolio doubles under Alex’s live guidance.
· Rounds 7–8 combined compounding with wave trading — helping students stay steady through a shaky market. Despite 2024’s turbulence, Round 8 hit 300% average return, drawing major attention from investors and media.
Based on unofficial stats, over 8,000 students have gone through Alex’s trading bootcamps, and around 70% hit double return targets. His many real-case success stories and student testimonials have become well known in Malaysia’s investing world. Plenty of folks who were once stuck in losses turned things around under Alex’s guidance, finally building a rational, steady, and systematic trading mindset.
His Approach: Teach Retail Traders with Institutional Eyes — Real Trades, Real Growth
Alex’s goal is to help every student build pro-level thinking when it comes to picking stocks and managing risk, no more guesswork or emotional trades. Compared to the usual stock courses out there, Alex insists on a “live trading + mindset coaching” combo, where theory and action go hand-in-hand, and trading discipline grows together with emotional control.
Institutional Trading Mindset
Alex breaks down how big funds operate, making it easy for students to spot money flow and read smart money behavior. With live chart analysis and sector recaps, students learn how to catch sector rotations and ride the big uptrends like pros.
Risk Control Comes First
No matter how good the setup is, risk control always comes first. Alex constantly reminds students: “Better to miss than mess it up.” Every single live trade he makes follows strict stop-loss, take-profit, and position sizing rules. He even uses his own account as a demo, showing students how proper discipline creates long-term compounding wins.
Real-World Training
In every round, Alex personally leads the live trading sessions, reviewing hot stocks, trade setups, and answering questions in real time. Even total newbies can get hands-on practice and grow fast in the process.
Mental Growth & Resilience
Alex also emphasizes trading psychology, often sharing his mindset tips and pressure-handling techniques. He encourages students to keep trading journals, reflect on their emotions and decisions, and learn to stay calm during market swings.
Because true long-term winners rely not on luck, but on mental strength and discipline.
It’s exactly this theory + real trade + mindset combo that helps retail traders level up from beginners to sharp, disciplined investors. Students often say: “Alex didn’t just teach us how to make money, he taught us how to keep it, and keep going further.”
Leading the 9th Round, “Institutional Group Strategy · 400% Compounding Plan” in 2025
Backed fully by PhillipCapital, Alex will soon lead the 9th Institutional Group Strategy · 400% Plan, aiming to help more Malaysians catch the next big market shift, and grow their portfolios 4X with solid strategy and tight execution. Doesn’t matter if you’re new or experienced, if you’re ready to follow a pro and stick to the plan, you might just be the next double-up story.
