FundedX
AJ Currency AKA Adrian Mudronja
AJ Currency is the public name of Adrian Mudronja, the founder of Prop Trading Firm FundedX and the educator behind Forex Education AcademyX. Short version: he's a FinTech entrepreneur who learned the markets the hard way, then built the firm and the classroom he wishes had existed when he started out.
He's Australian by background and runs the operation out of Dubai now. Two jobs, really. Teach people to trade. Then hand the ones who can prove it actual capital. People miss that when they hear the name. He isn't a marketer who stumbled into trading and slapped his face on a course. He's a trader who got tired of watching talent get locked out by a lack of money to risk.
The Two Ventures Behind AJ Currency
His work breaks into two businesses, and they feed each other. One teaches the craft. The other pays you to use it. Simple as that.
Forex Education AcademyX
AcademyX is the teaching arm. It's aimed at the trader who's serious but still rough around the edges. Maybe you're placing your first live trade. Maybe you've been at it for years and keep torching the same setup over and over. Either way, it meets you there.
Inside you'll find courses, live webinars, screen-share walkthroughs, and Adrian's running take on where the market actually is. The thing that makes it stick? It leans on real scenarios instead of clean textbook charts. You see how a setup behaves when price turns on you, which is the part that costs people money. Tough concepts get chewed down until you can actually use them. You walk away with something you'll run next session, not a folder of notes that rots on your desktop.
FundedX Prop Trading Firm
FundedX is the funding side, and this is where Adrian's thinking gets concrete. Clear an evaluation and you trade firm capital, with accounts running from $5K all the way up to $800K and scaling further as you perform. Profit splits start at 80% and climb toward 100% the longer you keep delivering. Take the Instant Funding route and you're at 95% from the jump.
There's more than one way in, because traders aren't measured the same. You've got Turbo, a 1-Phase, a 2-Phase, and Instant Funding for people who'd rather skip the audition and trade live straight away. Turbo's the fast lane: a 5% target, a seven-day window, and copy trading is fair game. On the standard challenges you get unlimited time, so there's no clock forcing you to rush a bad entry, and EAs are welcome if your edge is automated. Leverage runs up to 1:50.
Pick your platform too. cTrader, MetaTrader 5, or TradeLocker, all of them the kind of tools real traders already live in. And the payouts move quick. Bi-weekly as standard, and some funded traders have seen money land within minutes.
Discipline is the thread running through all of it. FundedX rewards risk management and consistency, not a lucky one-off that blows up next week. That's the exact bar Adrian holds his own trading to. The goal was never to trip traders up. It's to find the ones who can do the job and then back them. There's a refundable fee in the mix too, so passing the evaluation works in your favor.
Why It Matters
Stack the two together and the picture sharpens. AJ Currency is building a road that runs from learning the fundamentals at AcademyX to trading real money at FundedX, and you never have to gamble your own savings to prove you belong on it.
That's the whole point of what Adrian Mudronja does. Education and opportunity, bolted together so each one makes the other stronger. Done the work? Ready to show what it looks like with real backing behind you? Take a look at our challenges and grab the one that fits the way you actually trade.
