Hi, I'm
Keerthish Kodali
DevOps Engineer. Active trader. Blogger since 2011. Based in San Francisco, California — building useful things on the internet for traders and job seekers across the world.
Engineer by Day. Trader & Blogger Always.
I'm Keerthish Kodali — a DevOps Engineer and Manager with a deep passion for two things outside of technology: trading financial markets and helping people find their next opportunity.
I've been actively trading stocks and options for over 10 years, and for the past 3 years I've been in the prop firm world — going through futures evaluations, managing funded accounts, and learning what it actually takes to stay consistently profitable under firm rules and drawdown limits.
I started blogging in 2011, long before it was a trendy thing to do. Back then it was just a way to share what I was learning. Today, I run two blogs that reflect the two things I care most about — real trading insights and real career opportunities.
Two Blogs. One Mission — Useful, Honest Information.
I built both blogs because I couldn't find what I was looking for online — either the content was too generic, quietly sponsored, or written by people who had never actually done the thing they were writing about. So I wrote it myself.
From Stocks to Futures — A Decade in the Markets
My trading journey started with stocks and options — learning price action, risk management, and how to think probabilistically in live markets. Over time I expanded into futures, drawn by the leverage efficiency, the clear market structure, and the growing prop firm ecosystem that made funded trading accessible.
For the past 3 years, prop firm trading has been a major part of my routine — passing evaluations, managing funded accounts, and studying what separates traders who get consistent payouts from those who keep blowing challenges. That experience is what drives everything I write on MyBlogStory.com.

I'm active across a few platforms. The Discord community is the best place for real-time prop firm and futures trading discussions.
