Julian Lim: Making Trading Forex For A Living A Reality

In episode 81 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Julian Lim, a Forex trader based in Singapore who’s putting in the work and progressively making the jump toward scaling his full-time trading activities (i.e. trading Forex for a living).

Julian started his trading journey in stocks about 5 years ago, and although it wasn’t necessarily easy, he managed to stand out by pursuing his passion for trading in the Forex market.

I asked Julian for an interview after reading his notes in regards to trading for a living in a Facebook group. Julian Lim, with his down-to-earth attitude, accepted to record an interview on what he experienced while making the progressive jump to trading Forex for a living.

I’d love if you can take a few seconds to leave a review on iTunes or Stitcher. Let me know honestly what you think of the podcast because the only way I can improve is through your reviews.
