In this episode, Becky Gaskell, host of Market Mamas, dives into one of the most volatile events in the financial world: the FOMC. Despite the common advice from trading mentors to "stay away," Becky shares her personal and meticulously researched journey into trading these high-impact days. She reveals how she developed a unique trading system by spending years taking notes and backtesting to find a reliable pattern, including a specific pivot time. This episode is not financial advice, but a raw and honest look at the work, discipline, and passion required to find and master your own trading niche, even in the riskiest of market conditions.
