STR 254: Starting Small and Building From There

Published: Jan. 27, 2020, 5 p.m.

I’m pretty sure there is no one better prepared to become a trader than those who have military experience. In this day and age where people too easily get their feelings hurt, it’s nice to be able to be blunt with someone and have them simply say, “thanks”. If you are newer to the markets and looking at what it takes to actually be a good “learner”, then look no further. My guest, Chad (‘iamavol’ in chatroom) has a military background and this has served him well so far. He’s not trading with any huge amounts of money, but he’s doing things the right way. He is starting small and then building from that point by focusing on good habits and scaling. Chad’s certainly done some boneheaded mistakes as he’ll discuss, and thanks to his openness, there are some great learning opportunities for us all.
