“I’ve been trying trading by myself and the biggest challenge for me has been to set my mind…”

Hey Michael, how are you doing?

My name is [name]. I am from Medellin, Colombia.

I’ve been working 22 years in the banking sector, in the early days as a stockbroker and currency broker and the last 10 year as a proprietary position FX trader in BTG Pactual (Colombia Branch), and I consider I was a good trader, with good results and experience in risk management and mindset.

In February 2023, I made the decision to quit the company and have some sabbatical months, but I’ve been trying trading by myself and the biggest challenge for me has been to set my mind to trade with my own money. It has been very difficult with no good outcome at all.

So, the answer for your question is to get the proper mindset with your money. This is a lonely business.

Thanks!

Diego B.
