Selling Potatoes and Growing His Account
By day he is selling potatoes (literally!) and by night he is grinding and growing his trading account! This is one of the amazing attributes about the financial markets. They have no feelings. They don’t care about you. While this can be a scary thought in the sense of not feeling bad for taking your money, there is a positive side to this too. They don’t care if you are some potato salesman who lives in Idaho! If you trade smart and use a risk based strategy, the markets will reward you. My guest, Chad, is a very motivating guy and has a great story that keeps me inspired to continue to hustle and grind on my part! Chad has definitely had to take some big lumps along the way, but he kept going and focusing on the areas that needed fine tuning. In doing so, he’s found a very good place for his personal psychology within this overall trading strategy. Chad also used to be a financial planner with a couple different financial licenses, so he brings in a very interesting point of view from those areas of the market. Chad was open and honest which produced a fantastic discussion about a variety of critical topics for us as traders. Let’s get to it!
