Wow! Do I have a treat for you.
It’s not every day my guest is willing to show you inside their trading account, but todays guest Sami Abusaad treats us (during our video interview) with a “solid” and very transparent look inside his trading account… covering the first seven months of this year and over $800,000 in profit. Wins, losses… the lot!
But aside from that Sami (the Head of Trader Education at T3 Live and colleague of past guest and CNBC Analyst, Scott Redler) shares a world of insights that are bound to help you as a trader, whatever your level.
