This blog is going to celebrate its 1-year anniversary next month. Time flies

What have I got most out of this blog?

Friendship I have made lots of friends through my blog, many of whom are trading enthusiast (or going to be). And I feel great when my articles had helped you in one way or another.

What keeps you going?

Friendship…and trading. Seriously, through this blog, I experience what it meant by “the best way to learn is to teach”. This blog provides me with an avenue to share my views and insights on trading as well as for me to learn from my readers.

What’s next?

Just as learning how to trade is a continuous journey, I seek to share the trading knowledge that I have picked up along my trading journey in a digestible way. jmot’s blog shall continue to help fellow aspiring traders to overcome initial barriers when embarking on the journey to learn how to trade.
