It has been two weeks into this and I would like to thank everyone that entered the contest kindly for keeping me busy. Everyone did just as I asked which disappointed me a bit to be honest. I thought that since I show my personality via The Day Trading Academy and I wanted to see the personality of others as well. I was looking for someone to be different, to stand out, to show me their real personality. I know that everyone that […]
It all started in Medellin, Colombia, the city I often call home in the western hemisphere. A few months later Brice and I are starting a new project in Medellin called the Day Trading Proyecto. The LTD Project Brazil grew out of the passion for day trading and Brice and I are here working hard and partying hard in order to open a new Day Trading Center in Colombia. (Thinking out loud here) One possible idea that we came up with was […]
This is a continuation of my post about day trading competence, I want to elaborate a bit more as to why most day traders fail. Click here to read the previous post. Too many shortcuts are taken in the very beginning of trading careers which causes a rift in the clear understanding of market principles, indicators, and concepts. This is when you first get started, I will be doing another post on why experienced day traders fail. More time is spent re-reviewing […]
Being a day trader for over 10 years, I have seen a countless amount of people fail, win, and stay in a middle-of-the-road state. One of the reasons that my training program is so effective is because I have been in each one of those stages. In order to teach somebody how to day trade it’s important to know what it takes. The idea of the LTD Project is to publicize and chronicle the learning process to become a professional day trader, […]
As I am writing this post, I just informed Brice that quote “Pascua” is spelled with u-a at the end and not a-u, Pascua is Spanish for Easter. I keep trying to remind them that were in Brazil now, not Colombia. The LTD Project Brazil has officially started. I will have you know that I actually met Brice through twitter, we had a blind date eating an entire table of sushi and it was love at first sight. Follow Brice at twitter: @BriceinColombia Follow […]
This week started off great especially since I ended the day with a view that you see above, it seems like every day I remind myself what a beautiful city Rio de Janeiro is. Do not be fold however, Rio is a beautiful city from faraway not from up close. I’m really excited about this week, not only because it’s my birthday, but I’m also officially moving into a new apartment which will be the control center from here on out in […]
For me, day trading is a lifestyle, not a profession. I have been able to live in 10 countries across four continents because I’m able to work wherever I want, whenever I want, even making money in a recession. It’s not about making money as much as it is being able to live the life that you want to live. In order for me to train someone how to day trade, I want them to experience my lifestyle as well (check out […]
Its not everyday you get a specific request for a picture. But being that it was Easter I had to fulfill it, check out more about my travels on my travel blogs, WanderingTrader.com. I will be living in Brazil for the next month so catch updates specifically on my travel blog site. I will be sharing some stories here on the Day Trading Academy as well.
My new day trading office in Brazil sits on the fourth story in the building of a small neighborhood called Santa Teresa. To the left am able to see the entire coast of Rio de Janeiro, which includes the Sugarloaf mountain, and to the right you can see the Christ the Redeemer statue (not in the picture). Most of the days here have been sunny with blue skies and I have been able to visit the popular Copacabana beach, I have not […]
Welcome to Rio de Janeiro everyone! I have quite a bit of trouble finding an apartment here in the city and the prices are so outrageously high, but I am sitting here with a great view of the mountainside and Christ the Redeemer statue. I will be sharing more pictures of my current day trading office soon and of my new apartment that I will be moving to next Wednesday. Today was not the first day that I trade here in Brazil, […]
