Hey traders, Andrew Mitchem here at the Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 375.

Amazing trading results and the power of a good trading community

Now we have had some incredibly good results this week. And I'll talk about that more shortly, but I want to talk about the power of a good trading community and how important that can be to your trading success. You see, from time to time, I get people saying to me, "Hey Andrew, I can learn everything that you teach in your trading strategy on YouTube, or I can learn it from a book or anything like that." And it's like, well, good luck to you, off you go then, because you cannot. The simple fact is you cannot do that.

You have to be, if you want to be a good trader, the thing that's going to help you along the line, because of course you can have strategy and software and everything that we provide. And it's really, really, really good, amazingly good. We've been doing this for 11 years now as coaches, but what makes it even better is the community that we have. And I think that's the bit that's highly underestimated by a lot of people.

Trading can be a lonely business

You see trading's a lonely business. You're generally sitting at home on your laptop, on your desktop, most other people don't know what it is you're doing. You're generally sitting there doing something with not a lot of support, not a lot of help. Like the traditional online forums are just terrible, they just are. I've never, ever found a good one. They all start off with great intentions, but they're just awful.

But what we've built up over the 11 years from thousands of coaching clients from currently 88 countries all around the world, it's something very, very special and it's not to be underestimated the importance and the power of that family, of that community, of that spirit, that like-minded group of people all with that common goal of helping each other and to becoming a better trader.

You get to associate with like-minded people

Now from a personal point of view, when I go to business events, which I do from time to time, not that often, but from time to time I go to them. The reason I go to them is not only to learn something, but more importantly, it's the people that I meet there. And it's the unexpected bump into someone, start talking, you know somebody who knows someone else or they may be in a completely different business to you and you start talking to them and you find some sort of common goal correlation together.

And to me, it's surrounding myself with really good, decent people who are like minded people. And that's what I get out of those events, the energy that you get from that, just decent people. We all know there's a lot of, without putting it bluntly, people out there that just don't have the entrepreneur spirit, they just don't have the will to want to better themselves. All those types of things. We know that society has that unfortunately, and it always has always will do. But we also know that if we surround ourselves with good people and people with the same interest in us, whether it be a sport, music, trading, whatever it might be, you grow as a person from that. And that's what we have with the Forex Trading Coach community.
