The founder

Mubeen

Founder, CalmHQ Studio

he/him · London, UK

Mubeen is an independent developer based in London. Before founding CalmHQ Studio he spent twelve years trading personal capital — a period he documents publicly as the studio's origin story, including more than £500,000 in losses traceable to physiological state rather than analysis. CalmHQ Studio is his attempt to build the tool he needed at the start: Verge. The studio also publishes free templates, calculators, and writing on the gap between knowing better and doing better with money.

Talking points

Available to speak on:

  • 01The £500k trading-loss origin story and what it actually teaches about retail trader psychology
  • 02Why biometric self-awareness isn't 'wellness' — it's a planning tool for high-stakes decisions
  • 03The bootstrapped studio model — building one tool well rather than raising and scaling
  • 04How HRV / sleep / autonomic state actually affects trading decisions (the science, in plain English)
  • 05The 'three modes' framework — Trading, Recovery, Fitness — and why they're all in service of one trader
  • 06What financial literacy actually means at school-leaving age, and what the curriculum still misses

Brand assets
