My full name is Marquez Comelab. I am a private forex trader and I currently live in Melbou e, Australia. I started trading when I was still earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Commerce: Accounting, Banking and Finance.
TRADING
Trading is a form of investment. It is the only business I know of, that requires only your brain to succeed. It needs only ONE person to do the job and there is no need for huge expensive plant and equipment and troublesome logistics. Your results are fully in your control.
I began trading the share market before the tech stock market collapse. Unlike the many people who lost vast amounts of money in this event, I was fortunate. I learnt enough about trading and the use of technical analysis to close all my trades two working days before the panic selling began. I was sitting in the front seat, witnessing a historical event when the market struck fear into the hearts and minds of people who had come with the ambition to make money.
After the ‘carnage’ – as some jou alists have put it – there were not many trading opportunities in the stock market for me. I switched from trading shares to trading currencies. I have not looked back since. In the forex market, there are opportunities to make money even when the markets are going down!
THE BOOK: THE PART-TIME CURRENCY TRADER
I wrote the book: The Part-Time Currency Trader, for anybody wanting to trade the forex market. There are stages to mastering trading. In each stage there are important lessons to be learnt. I have not learnt all of them yet but in my jou ey as a trader, I have made mistakes and I have bumped into pivotal lessons that have changed my thinking. A novice trader should learn these as soon as possible to save them the emotional and financial pain associated to learning from brute trial-and-error approach. It is these lessons that I try to impart in this book.
WEEKLY TRADING STRATEGIES
As a trader, my main objective is to beat the returns of most forms of investments by trading the market, maximizing the returns on my investments for myself, my family and those who invest with me. I study market information and data and develop my own trading strategies based on my research and study. I publish these trading strategies on my website with actual trading results to track my performance.
