At ActivTrades, we know that success doesn’t happen by chance. It’s the result of relentless preparation, flawless execution, and unshakable discipline. So in both trading and racing, performance is built—never given. It takes precision, discipline, and the courage to trust your preparation when the pressure hits.
That’s why ActivTrades decided to sponsor the rising Formula 3 driver Nikola Tsolov—also known as the Bulgarian Lion. From his early days in karting to winning on some of the world’s most demanding circuits in Monaco, Hungary, Spain and Austria, Nikola’s story reflects everything we stand for at ActivTrades:
- A focus on precision
- A commitment to performance with an emphasis on preparation
- The drive to keep improving, race after race (or trade after trade)
But this is more than a sponsorship.
It’s a partnership built on shared values and long-term vision. Just as we support traders on their journey—from their first trade to building long-term strategies—we’re backing Nikola not just because of who he is today, but because of who he’s becoming.
“We don’t just choose winners—we partner with those building their path to success,” says Nedko Geshev, Head of Marketing Communications at ActivTrades. “Nikola represents the spirit of smart, focused growth. He prepares with intention and acts with precision—just like our most successful clients.”
The connection between Nikola and ActivTrades runs deeper still.
With our largest office in Sofia, we’re especially proud to support a homegrown Bulgarian talent who’s proving himself on the international stage. And we see a lot of our traders in Nikola: individuals striving to improve, who understand that milliseconds—or micro-movements—can make the difference.
To succeed in racing, you need the right team behind you. At ActivTrades, we believe traders deserve the same edge: reliable support, relevant trading insights, powerful tools and a platform that moves at their pace.
“Speed is nothing without precision—and confidence comes from preparation. Racers have their team. Traders have their client support team and platform,” explains Nedko Geshev, Head of Marketing Communications at ActivTrades. “Our job is to deliver stability, insight, and speed—so when it’s time to move, you’re ready.”
Trading and racing may look different—but both demand fast thinking, thorough preparation, and the right tools that perform under pressure. And in both, growth doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built—lap by lap, trade by trade.
