Jan Smolen

Won the Robbins Forex Championship in 2019 and again in 2020 at almost the exact same return — the kind of consistency that's a rule, not a coincidence.

The Robbins Forex Championship's 2019 and 2020 leaderboards both close with the same name at the top — Jan Smolen, 113.6% in 2019, then 113.9% in 2020. Two consecutive titles with returns inside half a percentage point of each other is the kind of result that signals a tight systematic methodology rather than two lucky discretionary years. Few WCTC winners have produced numbers that match across consecutive years; the closest analogues are Andrea Unger's 2008-2010 consecutive Futures titles (which varied between 115% and 672%, much wider).

The public surface is closed. Czech / Slovak-style name, Robbins-internal record of both wins, no public social presence under his name surfaced. Profile published as a placeholder; outreach via Robbins PR is the only realistic channel. The consistency of the two-year return is the strongest editorial hook for an interview — explain the same return across two different market regimes and you have a systematic-trading story worth publishing.
