Born in Cape Verde.
Built for Africa.
Powerhouse Africa is a proprietary forex trading firm and institutional investment manager headquartered in Praia, Cape Verde. We exist to prove that world-class trading excellence can be exported from the African continent — not imported into it.
Transforming trading psychology across Cape Verde and Africa by installing institutional-grade discipline at every level.
Build Africa's most powerful and trusted proprietary trading team — recognized globally for risk-adjusted alpha.
Discipline. Consistency. Transparency. Excellence. No shortcuts, no signals, no hype — only execution.
A trader's trader, building Africa's most disciplined desk.
At 35, Zion Omogbolu has spent more than a decade studying the mechanics of global currency markets — from the inside of the chart and the inside of the trader. What began as a self-taught obsession with G10 forex price action evolved into an in-depth mastery of order flow, liquidity behaviour, and the psychology that separates professionals from the 90% who never make it.
He founded Powerhouse Africa in 2019 with a single conviction: African traders do not lack talent — they lack frameworks. So he built one. The firm's institutional risk model, demo-to-funded progression, and psychology-first curriculum are all direct extensions of the way Zion himself trades the markets every day.
In 2022, he founded Zediq Capital, expanding his institutional footprint across West Africa and deepening the region's access to structured forex investment products.
Today he leads the senior desk in Cape Verde, oversees every investor mandate, and personally mentors each academy cohort. A 35% annual yield is not the goal — it is the byproduct of a process he has refined, documented, and now teaches.
G10 forex, precious metals, and macro positioning across multiple cycles.
Treats execution discipline as the primary edge — not technical setups.
Built the firm's daily VaR, exposure caps, and circuit-breaker framework.
Personally signs off on every funded-account progression in the academy.
“The market does not pay you for being right. It pays you for being disciplined long enough for the edge to play out.”
