The Genesis and Evolution of Transis Capital: Where Technology Meets Financial Excellence

Transis Capital was founded on the principles of precision and innovation, inspired by the operational genius of transistor technology—a component designed to precisely regulate and amplify electrical current. This analogy perfectly reflects our philosophy as traders and fund managers, mastering the delicate balance of risk management and capital allocation.

Established in 2021 by visionary hedge fund manager Witthaya Maidee, Transis Capital is a Sydney-based quantitative trading firm specializing in financial markets, commodities, and cryptocurrency derivatives. Our mission is simple yet ambitious: to innovate, inspire, and lead in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.

Our Roots: From Passion to Pioneering

The journey began in 2014 with the Transis Association, a small trading club formed by a group of friends united by their shared passion for investing and trading. What started as informal knowledge-sharing sessions evolved into a vibrant community, attracting enthusiasts eager to embrace a disciplined and collaborative approach to trading.

As the club matured, it transformed into the Secret Club—a structured educational initiative enriched by insights from Australian financial institutions. This foundation, coupled with the dedication and expertise of its members, laid the groundwork for the creation of Transis Capital.
