Christopher DeVocht, a former carpenter from Canada, managed to turn an $88,000 investment into a staggering $415 million, only to lose it all in a whirlwind of risky trades and stock market volatility. His tale of ambition and greed took him from financial success to total ruin in just a few years.

In 2019, DeVocht, forced to leave his trade due to health problems, turned his attention to the stock market. By that time, he had already built a substantial six-figure portfolio, but what followed was nothing short of extraordinary. By the time he turned 30, DeVocht’s wealth had skyrocketed to $26 million, largely fueled by his investments in Tesla shares and options.

Recognizing his remarkable growth, Royal Bank of Canada's Dominion Securities assigned financial advisers to help him manage his newfound wealth. These advisers not only guided him but also introduced him to a margin account, allowing him to borrow money and increase his purchasing power.

As Tesla's stock price surged to record highs in late 2021, DeVocht's portfolio reached its peak value of $415 million. He was living a life of luxury, even making a generous $17 million donation to charity.

However, his fortunes quickly reversed when the stock market began to crash in 2022. As Tesla’s value plummeted, so did DeVocht's wealth. Faced with mounting losses, he made increasingly risky trades and was forced to sell Tesla shares to pay off loans from his margin account.

Now, DeVocht finds himself with nothing. On October 1, he filed a lawsuit against RBC Dominion Securities, claiming they failed to provide him with proper advice and exposed him to excessive risks through the margin account. He alleges the firm’s inadequate guidance led to his financial collapse.

DeVocht’s rise and fall is a stark reminder of how quickly fortunes can change in the volatile world of stock trading.
