Now about me....
I am a husband, a father, a preacher of the gospel, and an engineer. At the age of 40, I want freedom and autonomy from working for someone else.
I am not motivated by money, but autonomy and philantropy are worth the rite of passage to becoming a trader.
So I took my first trade on November 1, 2013 on a demo account and have been quickly getting better and adapting to risk and fear ever since.
At the time of me finally taking the time to write this biography, I have been trading for only 5 months. I've moved from strategy to strategy making all the mistakes and taking all the risks that I shouldn't take. Sometimes I did it on purpose to experience the emotions just to leave a mental bookmark that says "Don't do that again." I've over traded (close to 800 trades in 5 months) and had huge wins and huge losses. I am finally slowing down to where I trade way less and am more focused. My trading strategy is a mixture of support/resistance, orderflow and price action.
Not bad for 5 months. Forex Factory has helped tremendously.
