A Newbie Trader`s Journey - Diary No 1

Here at Tradeguider we’ve each been in the business for decades so it’s easy to forget what it’s like for a newbie trader. To make sure we’ve kept this experience fresh in our minds we enlisted the help of a total newbie, London-based Steven Manufor, an administrative assistant for a company in the community care sector.

In exchange for us teaching him how to trade using the Trade to Win package including the VSA Lite software that we launched in 2021 he has agreed for us to film his progress.

 

Steven worked in the capital city’s financial district for a FOREX broker for 20 years as a credit controller. This has given him an understanding of the basics of the industry and how a brokerage firm works. This is one reason why he has decided to focus on FOREX trading for now.

Steven has always been curious about trading but never had a chance to have a go until he got a Trade to Win account. Here’s his thoughts once he took the decision to go for it.

We’ll be coming back to him soon to see how he is getting on, so check back then so you can learn what he’s learnt while getting to grips with the Trade to Win package on the TradingView platform, and trading as a whole.
