ABOUT white sands
The saying "Trading is simple but it's not easy" is a popular adage in the trading world, but its origin is not entirely clear. It is often attributed to various successful traders, investors, and authors, including Jesse Livermore, Peter Lynch, and Mark Douglas.
​
Downloading a platform and putting on a trade is a very simple task, but being a consistently profitable trader (CPT) is not easy. It took me a few years and hundreds of hours to become a CPT.
​​
Welcome to White Sands Trading & Mentoring! My name is Gilles Leblanc, and I have been an educator and investor/trader for nearly 30 years. With experience as a University Instructor and High School teacher, I’ve taught computer literacy/programming, mathematics, and business in both French and English.
​
I've always been passionate about the markets and began saving, investing, and trading in 2000. Over the years, I've developed a strong desire to teach others about financial markets, helping them achieve their saving, investing, and trading goals.
​
I believe that everyone can be a successful investor/trader, regardless of their experience or background. That's why I've dedicated my career to educating others about the markets and sharing my knowledge and expertise.​

Whether you're just getting started with investing/trading or you have a good knowledge of the markets, my goal is to provide you with the tools and resources you need to succeed. This website is filled with free valuable information to help you improve whether you're an investor, swing trader or intraday trader. From online courses and webinars to one-on-one and group coaching, I offer a range of services to help you build your knowledge and confidence in the markets.
​
At the end of the day, my mission is to demystify the plethora of information out there to help you achieve your financial goals and live the life you've always dreamed of. So why not join me on this journey and see what the markets can do for you? Let's get started today!

L'ensemble du site a été développé en anglais, cependant, les séances de mentorat peuvent se dérouler en français.
DISCLAIMER
WhiteSands Trading & Mentoring (WSTM) is here to teach, not to tell you what to do! This website (wstm.io) is packed with educational info to kickstart your financial journey—think Saving, Investing, and Trading smarts—but it’s not financial advice. We’re not licensed financial advisors, investment gurus, or broker-dealers, so don’t take our content as personal tips on stocks, trades, or strategies for YOU.
Everything on wstm.io—courses, glossary, posts, or Discord links—is for learning only. It’s not a nudge to buy, sell, or invest in anything specific. We’re dropping knowledge bombs, not recommendations! Our founder, Gilles Leblanc, brings 30 years of teaching Math, Finance, and Business, but we won’t customize advice for your situation—chat with a pro if you need personalized help.
Trading and investing are wild rides with big risks—think rollercoaster, not merry-go-round! You could lose money, so it’s on YOU to do your homework and weigh the stakes before jumping in. Beware of scams—WSTM will NEVER contact you on social media (
@WhiteSandsTM, gproftrades on Discord) asking for money or investments. If you get any shady requests, ignore them and report to authorities ASAP!
​
We don’t guarantee wstm.io’s info is 100% perfect—typos happen, markets change. You’re rolling solo here—your moves, your risks, your wins. We’re not liable for errors, omissions, or losses from using this site. If you’re under 18, loop in a parent or guardian before acting on anything you find here.

Questions? Hit us at gprof@wstm.io—we’re here to empower you with smarts, not sell you anything!
