I am writing this email to our community from amid mountain villages in the Himalayas. I am currently in Pokhara, a city west of Kathmandu, Nepal. It is known for being a gateway to the Annapurna Circuit (which I have read recently has often been voted as the best long-distance trek in the world).

Every Monday, our education team, Carlos, Mike and Kyle, offer an Onboarding and Technology session for new members. Due to the website issues,...

Success in any endeavor comes from being resilient and surviving the learning curve....

Our last question to him concerned the advice he would give to new and developing traders. His response? He said to use STOPs, to use STOPs, and to use STOPs. It’s...

It’s also been reported that Tesla has purchased $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin. Traditional trading has always been based on either fundamental analysis or technical analysis, but as Peter discussed last week with Jack Schwager in the first episode of a new season of Talk with Traders, many...

Day Trading Rules For Beginners Think about it for a minute. Remember being a kid? Think about some rules your parents were diligent at enforcing. Think about your time at school, your time at university, your job, your city, etc. I bet you can think of many rules in place in each of those settings, but do you ever wonder why there are so many rules?
