Tell us a little bit about you.

I’m half Greek and half Romanian, and when I finished high school, I started to trade. I love traveling and freedom, so that’s why I chose trading. I never gave up, so that’s why, right now, I’m living just on what I make in trading.

How long have you been trading?
