Winter break recap

Published by in Blog on December 29th, 2011

The laziness has sadly kicked in this winter break. And I haven’t taken much advantage of the free time I have left. Nonetheless, me and Jordan have still been researching like there’s no tomorrow. As of now, my focus is on learning Timothy Sykes’s trading strategy. Of course, there are many more that I’m exploring. Some include swing trading and arbitrage. A midst all this I been reading An American Hedge Fund, chapter 5 now and liking it so far. I also ordered several books including; ‘Trading For A Living’ by Alexander Elder and ‘Fooling Some of The People All of The Time’ by David Einhorn. Both highly respected investors and traders.

Paper trading has been smooth. Been testing out a couple of strategies but haven’t really gotten into it as much. My focus now has been trying to find internships and meeting with highly experienced individuals in wealth management firms, seeking career advice and financial wisdom. I feel very optimistic about the future and things have been moving forward pretty fast. In the other side of things, my business partners and I have shared some enthusiasm in joining Capital Traders Group. A prop firm that has been the talk in town on Investimonials. Although I have gotten mixed feelings from a couple of seasoned veterans, I try to shed some light on this new discovery and give them the benefit of the doubt. I rather judge after I experienced it, thats just how I see it. So with that, I plan on taking the series 56 exam and join by March of next year.  I think this would be a great opportunity to learn about day trading and finally have some work experience under my belt.

Winter break and the laziness it came with are finally coming to an end. Next semester starts a new and my heavy schedule will keep me busy . My new career prospects will keep me hungry, and my long term goals will keep me motivated.

Happy holidays to all our followers and supporters. Remember, stay bullish!
