So Who Am I?
Well, I'd like to be able to brag, but when it comes down to it I’m really just Mr Average. I’m in my 50’s, I have three beautiful children and I’m from the East Midlands.
I left school with 2 'O' Levels (so not exactly a genius) and went through a string of jobs, including working on a building site before I started my own telecoms business. This was hard work and I still never felt totally financially independent... so my life is very much like many other people. In fact the only big 'difference' is what I've achieved through trading.
You see, something happened to me in 2006. I had been working for myself for a year when a letter landed on my doormat offering me the chance to learn how to trade. Like a lot of people, the thought of dabbling in the financial markets had crossed my mind, and to be perfectly frank I really could have used the extra cash that 20 minute's effort a day could apparently provide.
So, I started to learn about trading and like most people I bought courses, got excited and then went off the boil, so my trading was very 'off and on'.
However, overall, I certainly did okay... but now, looking back I realise I was a million miles from where I am now...
By 2008, the recession was upon us and having a young family meant that any drop in earnings could have a truly disastrous effect. It became clear to me that I had to be totally self-sufficient, in terms of finance, so that I was not going to be affected by anything that affected the economy… or my income.
So, I set about increasing my trading knowledge...
Since then, I have invested in even more trading courses (varying vastly in price and quality it must be said) and spent many hours shackled to my computer. I made money and I lost money, I celebrated and swore in equal amounts. It certainly wasn't as easy as I had hoped, or as difficult as I feared but sure enough, overall, I was making money. I was in profit!
Then I took a good look at myself and realised I hadn't followed one particular method for more than a few weeks. I was chopping and changing and not sticking to the rules even when I had them. So, the only way forward for me was to sit down and write out my trading plan, develop a set of rules I could stick to and that would become permanent… but more importantly would make me money.
So I did just that. I wrote down my times of trading, how much I would be prepared to risk, when I would cash in on the trade... everything.
Now whilst I like trading stocks and shares, I quickly realised that with a small 'seed fund', I wasn’t going to make substantial amounts of money trading stocks and shares throughout the day. However, I was anxious to get going as quickly as possible.. So although we cover stocks and shares trading in detail on the course, we will begin with FX for our trading journey.
Now, currency pairs have huge volumes traded daily, so whilst I could still trade my stocks and shares on a 30 minute a day basis, by also trading currency pairs, I could increase my earnings substantially. Suddenly, I was making money consistently... more money than ever before and more than I ever expected.
The point here is that by being disciplined and sticking to my 'rules' the outcome changed dramatically. And the reality is that you can do the same, if you go about it in exactly the right way. I'll show you how.
And I mean I will show you, warts and all. We're constantly bombarded by the adverts on the internet, saying how so and so made 'x' amount and now they're a millionaire, blah blah......It just doesn’t work like that. I detest that style, its just false (unless they have been very lucky and over leveraged....about 0.1% of traders get away with it). However, if you take a look at the testimonials and my trade results, you can see that even Mr Average, with patience and discipline, can make good money and build a good portfolio over time.
