Hi BBT!
I am an American SAHM from Houston, TX with a Danish husband (of 26 years) and 2 teenage kids. My family has lived in Switzerland for 16 years, and now that my kids are grown, I have some time on my hands. My location is perfect for trading the US markets, and I am looking forward to a methodical study and practice regimen to prepare for live trading.
I found the community after my sister recommended Andrew's book. I listened to one chapter where I first heard the term "swing trading." I promptly bought Brian's book, and have read through 2 or 3 times now! After doing a 2-week trial a couple of months ago, I was really intrigued. Now I have joined with Lifetime Membership, I am reading Andrew's books, watching the chatroom trades, and learning from the video trade recaps.
I intend to start my sim practice after the summer holiday when I have some quiet, alone time. I have a trading account here in Switzerland (Saxo Bank) which I use for other purposes. One of the first things I am doing is researching my options re: brokers and trading platforms.
The honesty and transparency of the traders in this community is truly inspiring, and I look forward to learning from you all. Hopefully, others can find something helpful from my experiences as I travel my own learning curve!
