The year started with a bang after an invitation which was long overdue to speak to Kenyatta University students on what it takes to be a successful Forex trader. It was really great to have the talk in a higher education learning institution, my former school. The focus of my presentation was centered on Trading Psychology and Risk Management as can be seen on the PowerPoint presentation attached.Final STL 2 Forex Presentation
This event was organized by Axi Traders in collaboration with Gamerz Arena following the completion of a Forex Competition that saw two ladies and one gentleman take leading positions. The contestants were awarded for their achievement and shared their brief trading journey with the audience. I was delighted to be part of fresh and new talent and emphasized to the students that what really matters in this game is your level of skill and the time you are willing to put in to learn the ropes prior to execution.
The role of coaching and mentor-ship was brought up by the students who were really curious on how to get started in trading the financial markets. Part of the reason as to why Sylvia’s Traders Lounge was formed was to give a solid foundation to beginning traders as well as struggling traders to achieve consistency in their profitability with a focus on education. As you can see, the venue was packed with students eager to learn.
The conference could not end without a one on one networking interaction with interested and potential clients. The enthusiasm of this crowd was beyond exceptional, totally loved it. One of the students really appreciated the exchange and told me I had addressed one of his main struggles pertaining to draw-downs and trading personality in less than a minute. I look forward to representing Sylvia’s Traders Lounge in such seminars in the near future. Be on the look out, cheers!
