A collection of our guest speaking, interviews, and other educational events.

A big thanks to DZH NextVIEW for inviting me to this event, “Market Outlook & Technical Analysis 2015 with John Bollinger”.

I won’t be speaking this time, but I’m curious to meet up with John Bollinger, having read his book “Bollinger on Bollinger Bands” many years ago. It is somewhere in this reading list:

See you there this Saturday! 😀

I have been invited by CIMB Securities to give a free 2-hour content-packed workshop to share my trading secrets of how I achieved financial freedom at 27 by spending only 15 minutes a day trading, and how anyone can do it once they pick up the right skills. Seats are very limited, so please turn up if you RSVP! Thanks, and see you there! 😀

After passing level 1 of the Certified Financial Technican (CFTe) exams a few months back with a whooping score of 86 (passing score is 74), I went on to take level 2 of the exam, and was recently notified that I have passed! Yay! 😀

What is this Certified Financial Technican (CFTe) exam all about?

Basically, it is something like the CFA exams, but for technical analysts and traders.

What is tested during these exams?

The syllabus is very comprehensive, and not for the faint-hearted. 😀

It took me 2 whole weeks of serious studying/revising to cover all the topics.

How recognised is this certification?

Well, for starters, it is recognised internationally in 26 countries, and it is not easy to achieve, hence it is much more “rare” than the more common CFA.

Going forward, I think that it is important for SGX or MAS to “force” all trainers to take more accreditation exams or certifications, to ensure their competency and raise the standards of all trainings in the industry.

With the proliferation of blogging and social media, it is now easy for anyone to become an instant market Guru overnight, and start conducting classes for software/training, etc. Having such certifications will help the public discern the real traders/trainers from the lemons in the market, who give the industry a bad name.

Even though I have achieved financial freedom 2 years back, I have never stopped learning – spending over $10k on courses and trainings just last year alone.

Even with my double degrees, I still continue to pursue more lifelong skills, which include certifications, courses, and most importantly I still read at least 1 book a week.

And as I strive to keep improving and continually invest in myself, I hope that through this blog, I am able to help others master the right skills and achieve early financial freedom too!

Cheers! 😀

I received an invitation to this year end traders party jointly organized by HKEx & Trading Technologies.

Look like free food & drinks. 😀 Anyone going for this?

Year End Party

DSC 0032

Another batch of successful graduates who have learnt the secrets of behavioral analysis, and how professional traders time the market! Now it is time to put what you all have learnt into practice, and start reaping profits from the market!

And once again, we have 100% positive reviews and a strong YES! when asked if they would recommend their friends and family.

We take special pride in our post-course support and training, providing a private network forum for daily tips and discussion, so that busy working professionals need only spend 15 minutes a day to see what to buy or sell.

In addition, we also have monthly hands-on market workshops, where we sit down as a group and analyse the markets together to look for good trading opportunities. This gives program graduates a great opportunity to practice their new skills, and learn to place trade with confidence.

The next intake will only be in March 2015, but we allow advanced reservations, so email us before the limited slots get filled up to avoid disappointment! See you at the top! 😀
