A TRADER'S LIFE

Early in February 2021 I got together with crypto trader Nicholas Pelecanos. Nick got into trading pretty early on in life. When he blew his first account, he formed a trading club which became the most successful university trading club in Australia. He tried a bit of everything to begin with but gravitated to Bitcoin. Today, as Head of Trading at NEM Group, Nick has his own list of clients and has become something of an expert in all things blockchain.  --BEFORE YOU HEAD OFF… as we all know, a lot can go wrong in trading. Some days you can find yourself gasping for breath and telling yourself you need a complete break from it.Well, take a look at this. It’s a way of making passive income by taking a stake in the crypto space but doesn’t require you to trade crypto. The company in question is called Yieldnodes. And essentially, what these guys do is provide cutting edge services to the blockchain network, such as maintaining e-wallets and the like.It’s very easy to get set up on the platform, and the returns are truly exceptional, averaging around 10% per month. Once you factor in compounding you could be looking at just north of 200% per annum. Here’s another thing I think is really important: Yieldnodes have allowed members to audit their incomings and outgoings and found them to be entirely transparent.  I personally think this is an exciting proposition and, if you sign up through my link, instead of the usual minimum deposit of 500 Euros, you can make a start with just 50 Euros. Heck, some people put that on the lottery every weekend! So why not plant a seed today with Yieldnodes and see what grows from there?By pass the 500 Euro minimum requirment and start participating in the Yieldnodes project with as little as 50 Euros via this link while helping to keep this podcast going. Support the showSubscribe to A Trader's Life <<A Trader's Life on Twitter.

This is a clip from my conversation with crypto trader Nicholas Pelecanos. I learnt quite a lot about crypto and blockchain talking with Nick, who trades for himself and a clutch of investor clients looking to take advantage of the crypto bull market. If this is an area of trading that interests you, I think you’ll get plenty out of this one. Support the showSubscribe to A Trader's Life <<A Trader's Life on Twitter.

You might think staking a thousand dollars on one trade on a high-leverage account with an unlicensed broker is a little insane, but my next guest, Jude Obiarinze, somehow makes it work. Coming from a background in accountancy, he’s probably smarter than most of us when it comes to balancing the numbers. Here’s our conversation. Support the showSubscribe to A Trader's Life <<A Trader's Life on Twitter. Link up with me on Li.

In today’s session Kevin Davey talks to me about how he went from being an "awful discretionary trader" many years ago to the award-winning and highly successful algo trader he is today.  Even though I doubt I’m going to be writing code any time soon, I was really curious to find out more about this way of trading. Just how difficult is it? Not surprisingly, you need to have some understanding of trading and some aptitude for writing code for the strategies you devise. Then again, many of Kevin’s students hadn’t written any code before attending his classes – and it didn’t stop them from becoming successful algo traders. As with most things, curiosity, patience and perseverance are key. Enjoy the conversation.Support the showSubscribe to A Trader's Life <<A Trader's Life on Twitter. Link up with me on Li.

This is a clip from my session with trader and educator Kevin Davey. As you just heard, by his own admission, Kevin was "an awful discretionary trader" – but he gets the last laugh because, after switching to systemising his trading, he not only broke the cycle of yearly net losses, he became an award-winning algo trader. If you’re even remotely curious about the use of code in trading, listen to the full episode here.Support the showSubscribe to A Trader's Life <<A Trader's Life on Twitter.
