Humble beginnings to inspiring other women to trade.
It was roughly one year ago, November 2015, that I began my daytrading for the second time with small amounts of money. I was still struggling to figure out the best trading strategy. At this time I also read the book Momo Traders and it inspired me to then work on reaching out to more women about trading.
I realized at that time, there are not many women traders out there to help encourage women to be active traders. So I began working on a book about female traders. Hopefully this will be coming out early 2017 and I will of course keep you informed. There are definitely female traders but not many that want to break down the mental barriers to help others succeed at trading.
I felt the best way to help others is to share my experience along the way and that is what the Women Empowering Women Seminar by Trade Ideas was all about this past weekend. You can view the full recording here Literally I started as an aspiring day trader in my basement office not knowing much and now I’m honored to help inspire others.
It was roughly one year ago when I opened my Twitter account and I went to my husband….Look Honey I have 10 followers. As I began sharing and blogging and tweeting everything grew. I began with Twitter and then people started asking questions, so I began sharing and I thought a blog is an efficient way to answer the questions that I received from multiple people in one forum.
Thus this blog was born and created to share to answer questions that I receive often. This past September I went to the Trader and Investors Summit and was honored by Timothy Sykes with my success thus far as a female trader. My hubby is a big YouTube fan and so I began doing my weekly video about my week in review and answering more questions as well. Slowly as more questions come in I try to film the answers. I also want to share the real point of view not the shiny happy everything is great trading view.
My openess to share my journey led me to being the keynote speaker at the event sponsored by Trade Ideas. It was an absolute honor to share my journey that has been just a year so far. I have big visions for helping more women put the fear aside as far as learning how to trade.
The biggest hurdles in acheiving any dream is the one you present in your mind. Once you put your fear aside and start putting your energy towards your goals and dreams you see you future changing before your eyes. Day by day all the efforts you put out create your new future. Before you know it you have changed your life to be living your dream as reality.
I love hearing feedback from you. It makes my trading more personal and I like to hear how I can help you. If you have questions or comments you can contact me here or on Profitly, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook. carpeprofit@gmail.com or YouTube
The tool I use for scanning and alerting is Trade Ideas who offer an always free trading room.
