Please describe your trading journey. How long have you been trading? When do you become consistent? What made the change for you?
- I have known about trading since 2007. I was then introduced to many trading systems, including pivot point trading, support, resistance, news trading, etc, but was never consistent for the first three years. I then left forex trading for other business ventures, including poultry, egg, and meat production, but I still have an interest in trading forex. I returned last year (2017) after reading a book, Technical Analysis of Financial Markets, by John Murphy and watching some YouTube videos. Yet, I was still struggling with money management and being consistent. I blew off several accounts, both demo and real. The revolution of my trading success came when I met a mentor online, Vladimir Ribacov of the Traders Academy Club. I subscribed to the club in January 2018 with the help of my father, Engr Titus Durosinmi, who paid for it. I went through their training videos and started attending their life trading rooms. I became consistent in my demo accounts in March/April 2018. I later decided to go for the 5%ers evaluation to raise funds for trading.
