When we started The Day Trading Academy we had a vision. Although we were day trading and traveling on our own it wasn’t that much fun. Not when we could trade other traders to do the same. To have their freedom and have the ability to live life the way it was meant to. We now have a growing number of Master Traders that are doing just that. Manny, The Trading Connoisseur, has traveled with his family to an endless amount of […]
The onset of the currency wars has commenced. All around the world, nations are lowering the value of their money. First Japan, followed by the United States and the United Kingdom have all engaged in quantitative easing (QE) and the lowering of interest rates to historic lows. In the last two weeks the Euro plunged in value against the dollar to a 11 year low with the onset of QE there, after first lowering the rates of interest to negative levels in […]
Europe will begin a full fledged version of quantitative easing beginning in March of this year. To many in the markets it comes as a relief. They have allowed themselves to believe that expanding the money supply through the purchasing of government debt, will bring back growth to the staggering continent. The hope is that this infusion of new money will stimulate the economy enough, to allow a return of the lost prosperity of a bygone era. The policy makers of Europe […]
So excited to share this House Hunters International Episode which features our founder, Marcello Arrambide, when purchasing a 5 bedroom penthouse in the city of eternal spring, Medellin, Colombia. The property is for all of our traders with The Day Trading Academy to use. We do most of our training online and this will be our first physical center. The concept is to have various centers around the world so all of our traders can come and visit at anytime. We are also […]
The market isn’t giving up this year. No sir. With so much uncertainty in the world the volatility and volume has continued to increase. The European Union just announced QE (money printing) which will help Gold and Silver continue to rise. If you don’t remember we recommended you buy silver and gold on Aug 19, Nov 18, Dec 5. We still need to share how our in house managed accounts team was able to net 41.84% last year with only 5.5 months of trading live […]
Investors in gold and silver want to know if the new year will see a return of a bull market in precious commodities. The recent interest and pick up in price for gold and silver are the result of individuals using these two metals in particular, as a hedge against market uncertainty. Whether the recent trend will continue, depends on the level of growth in the global economy and whether there will be rising tensions, in a number of flash points around […]
Africa south of the Sahara Desert has well over 900 million people. Yet this extensively large region, consumes less electricity than most American states or the smallest countries in Europe. Solar power could well be the answer for a continent that has not undergone the energy revolution of the 20th century. Large swaths of the population still rely on power sources from the 19th century. This lack of investment in infrastructure, is one reason why this area of the world, continues to […]
Something new that we may be starting with our day trading recaps. Enjoy!
In honor to one of the best traders that inspire us all. On our recent Master Trader retreat we wanted to send a tribute to the man. Superman. The man known as none other than Jim Steel. We visited the gorgeous historical colonial streets of Cartagena, Colombia. Afterwards, we held our first full week live trading session with our Master Traders and saw tremendous improvement in our student traders. Some of the student traders in attendance have even become consistently profitable. We then flew to Porto […]
In the spirit of a new year I wanted to share ten points to bear in mind as you progress through the year. These are basic principles that I have practiced and have been a blessing in my life. Be Grateful Thankfulness breeds happiness and contentment. Gratefulness infuses every moment with meaning and value Be Generous Give….no matter how little you think you have, there is always someone else that has a lot less. Giving is not just about money; a smile, […]
