Neda Changizi
Neda earned a master’s degree in Computer Science from Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, Canada. Following work as a software developer and computer science researcher for several organizations, Neda has taught since early 2019 in the computing department at the British Columbia Institute of Technology. It was back in 2015 though that Neda (very randomly!) came across an “Introduction to mindfulness for those who can’t meditate” class on Facebook, and reading that one post began a life-changing journey into the world of mindfulness meditation. Although it did take time to be comfortable with practicing mindfulness meditation every day, after seeing the values and benefits of that daily practice, Neda set about to hold virtual and in-person meetings to assist individuals in practicing meditation and establishing it as a regular part of their daily life.

If there is such a thing as a secret to the nature of trading, psychology of trading is it.

Busting Common Mind-Traps: How faulty thinking leads to messing up trades
“Whether you think you can or you think you can’t – you’re right.” Mindset plays a hugely important role in successful trading. However, a ‘negative mindset’ can actually take many forms. There are many sneaky thinking styles that we may not even class as being negative until we understand how that thinking impacts our actions in the markets. This webinar unearths some of the most common mind-traps that result in losing trades, and provides practical tips for cultivating a mindset that will support you in becoming more consistently profitable.

This community is life changing. When I started, I was a nurse working sometimes 16-hour shifts. I knew I wanted the freedom and flexibility of trading.
Bear Bull Traders gave me this and so much more. I now have a new career that I love. The features and content they put out is second to none.

BBT is a great community to be a part of to develop as a trader. The chatroom and the educational resources are invaluable no matter your experience.
All of the members are incredibly helpful and questions are encouraged – it’s a serious but welcoming place to learn.

Andrew, his book, the Bear Bull Traders (BBT) team and the BBT chat room have reinvented and redefined Day Trading.
There are many chat rooms out there, and I have seen and tried many of them, and there is nothing that comes close to BBT. Their classes and success webinars are worth their weight in gold.
