Let’s take a deep dive into how the financial markets really work – FOR ALL LEVELS!
What makes stocks go up and down? Is inflation over? Where is the recession? Maybe the economy is just stabilizing and normalizing? How much do our biases affect our decision making and keep us from maximizing our investing returns? Can we overcome them? YES!
We seek to answer all those questions and more with featured guest, Brent Donnelly, trader since 1995 focused on currency trading, author of Alpha Trader & several other books, president of Spectra Markets & Spectra School – bridging the gap between theory and real world trading.
