• Tell us a little bit about you.
  I am a mechanic by trade, I have my own mechanical workshop that I have been operating for about ten years. Always have been interested in trading shares but never got around to it until forex trading outplayed on YouTube one day, so I decided to start trading forex.

• How long have you been trading?
  I started trading forex in August 2020. I am a part-timer trader.

• Share with us a challenge you faced in your trading career and how you overcame it?
  My trading career is quite short. I had no trading background, everything I learned was from the net, Youtube, etc. My biggest challenge was sifting through all the content and choosing somebody that fits my style.

• How did you adjust risk management to your trading personality?
  Sticking to the one percent rule works for me & my stop losses are always based on ATR values.

• Describe a key moment in your trading career.
  Passing the 5%ers evaluation has to be my key moment.

• How long it took for you to become a consistent trader, and what aspects did you change that helped you to become consistent?
  It took me just over a year to become profitable. Good money management & thoroughly back-testing my strategy helped me turn my trading around.

• What is your mental/psychological strength, and how did you develop it?
  When I first started trading I was always fidgety and closed my trades when they turned against me, eventually, they would have hit my profit target in the end. I learned to stay disciplined & leave the trades alone until my indicators told me to exit.

• What was your strategy to successfully passing The5%ers’ First Level?
  If you have a thoroughly tested strategy & good money management you should pass the first level easily.

• How is trading for the5ers different from trading by yourself?
  Having the extra capital make the difference, also having the targets to hit for each level.

• What would you recommend to someone who is just starting with us?
  Trust your strategy, a few losses aren’t the end of the world, stick to your guns.

• Share online resources that were/are significant in your trading development. Name and links are appreciated.
