Tackle Today: 15 rules for the Extremistan
August 27, 2019
≈ How to survive and be successful in the financial markets. ≈
Say a person comes to you with this type of proposal today:
— “I want to become a trader, however, you’ve said that the financial markets are irrational, volatile, uncertain and complex. That’s kind of scary. If you could give me some basic rules on how to survive and be successful in this type of environment, I’d appreciate.”
This person could be a friend, your spouse, a parent, your sister; anyone who’s interested in becoming a trader/investor.
How would you help them? How would you go about listing a few basic rules on how to survive and be successful in the extreme world of financial markets?
This is what the August edition of the Trading Justice newsletter is all about: 15 basic rules on how to survive and be successful in the Extremistan, this strange and bizarre terrain where the financial markets belong to.

Is this the definitive guide? No, not at all. But that should definitely help people getting started in the financial markets with the right foot.
