Over 20 Years in the Market and Still Learning | STR 022

John ("ESVA") has been a member from the very beginning. When I first started my service, he was one of the first people to sign up and has been a valuable asset to the community ever since. With 20 years experience in the markets, ESVA has been through many ups and downs, but one thing has remained constant... his never ending journey for continuing to improve himself and get better. From starting in the markets needing to call a broker to place a trade to now having excessive technology at his finger tips, this is a journey that is extremely interesting. Notes: ESVA (John)was introduced to stocks relatively early on in life through his father. Later in life he decided to revisit trading and investing and start his journey. He decided to try a penny stock picking service but decided to find other chat rooms and message boards after being involved in a few pump and dumps (and losing money in them). John was one of the first 300 people to join the Inner Circle and that is when he transitioned into trading small cap stucks (under 10$). Once Clay put out Options Trading Simplified, John decided to continue investing in his education and see how he could utilize smaller amounts of capital to amplify gains exponentially. Quotes: “In your early 20s you really don’t think about investing. You get away from it because you’re young and doing different things.” tweet this quote “Some traders told me you need to start learning, don’t trust anyone, and you need to do your homework. That was my turning point.” tweet this quote “You can have fun trading but you have to treat it like a business. Nobody wants to just throw their money out the door.” tweet this quote “Sometimes getting in at the lower price isn't better. It’s better to have the chart setup and pay a few cents more.” tweet this quote Links: Chat Room: Inner Circle
