Early Life

‍

I was born and raised in London, with the privilege of going to good schools and university. I chose to study business management (with the intention of starting a business), and really enjoyed my time there.  I chose to “major” in marketing, although it was hard to chose between marketing and sustainability.

‍

During my education I was also fortunate enough to embark on a 10 year career in motorsport. I learnt a lot during these years, and with reflection, similarities can be drawn with trading. You go to arace weekend with mixed emotions. You love what you do, but you have to perform. Not for sponsors, nor your supporters, but for yourself. I grew upwith a brother of similar age, and we both used to compete for everything. I believe that is what led to my competitive nature. You’re not satisfied anywhere but the front end of the grid. Crypto investing/trading can be similar for me. Its high pressure because your stakes are real, and its only worth it if you’re winning.

‍

Later Life

‍

After university I travelled, took part in different racing series (before retiring), worked at a small book publishing business, and finally landed a property sales role in Central London.

‍

Fast forward.

‍

I decided to make a change and move to another country that offered the lifestyleI was looking for. Having frequently holidayed in SA, Cape Town, I decided to leave the property market, and make the move to CT on a modelling visa.

‍

What led me to Finance and Crypto?

‍

In 2019 the storage facility where I chose to leave my belongings was destroyed by a fire. The insurance pay out gave methe disposable income to invest in the crypto market. Without this event I would have never got involved in the space.

‍

Covid lockdowns allowed me to delve deeper into the finance and trading space and further education helped me increase my knowledge and understanding.

‍

What I love about crypto and finance?

‍

The diversity of the crypto space allows individuals to pursue so many avenues of trading, all from the comfort of their homes. All you need is some tech to get started (and a little capital obviously).

You can choose how much time you want to allocate to your trading, from long term hodl portfolios, to intra day trading.

‍

I can’t see better investment channels with regard to gains and fun. I love the diversity of tech that is available. Innovation and new ideas popping up everywhere. I don’t see blockchain tech going anywhere, and only growing bigger in the years ahead.

Portfolio Allocation:

‍

Trading Portfolio (45%): I use this portfolio to swing trade specific assets.
Hodl Portfolio (40%): I have a desired amount of a select few assets that I believe will do very well with the incoming bull run.
NFTs (15%): Having invested a lotinto the space, I am holding a select group of projects that
I believe shoulddo well when NFTs come back to life.

Trading Achievements & Setbacks:

• Biggest Win: 2021, Shiba Inu $1,000 -  $35K.

• Biggest Loss: UST collapse - 25k USD.

Favorite Trading Indicators

Fibonacci Retracement: This is a favorite tool for many traders. By connecting a significant price swing's high and low, the tool provides potential support and resistance levels based on the Fibonacci sequence. These levels are often watched by many traders, so they can act as self-fulfilling prophecies.

‍
Fixed Volume Profile: (or Fixed Volume Pull): This tool is crucial for identifying the price levels at which the most trading activity has occurred over a specified period. It helps traders see where the majority of volume has traded and can provide insights into potential areas of support and resistance.

‍
EMAs

‍
TheEMA is commonly used in technical analysis to identify trends over a specific number of periods, with shorter-term EMAs being more reactive to price changes than longer-term EMAs.
I personally like the 200,100 and 50 EMAs.
