About the Author

Kazi Mezanur Rahman is the founder, independent researcher, and editor behind DayTradingToolkit, a one-person publication. He built the site to organize practical trading education, primary-source research, calculators, and documented tool reviews in one place.

Kazi trades his own capital as a retail trader. He does not present himself as a professional trader, full-time trader, financial adviser, broker, accountant, or attorney. His experience comes from personal market participation combined with systematic research. The editorial approach is intentionally conservative: explain risks plainly, disclose affiliate relationships, avoid profit promises, clearly distinguish research from first-hand experience, and correct material errors when they are found.

Kazi oversees the site’s education library, research methodology, review structure, and content updates across beginner lessons, strategy explainers, psychology guides, calculators, and software comparisons.
