Michael Lamothe is the founder of MARA Wealth, and is a successful author and trading coach. Mike’s trading journey began in the late 90s as a self-taught, part-time trader.  Mike learned the hard way that there’s a lot more to trading than putting money in and simply waiting for more to pop out. After failing miserably on his own for nearly a decade, Mike discovered William O’Neil's book, “How to Make Money in Stocks”, and the Investor’s Business Daily Meetup in NYC. Learning from like-minded traders and professional money managers, Mike began taking trading more seriously, his confidence grew, and within a year, he not only became profitable, he became a Co-Leader of the NYC Investor’s Business Daily Meetup. In this episode of How To Trade It, Mike shares how he finally broke free from the vicious market cycles of gain and loss by shifting his mindset. You don’t want to miss it!
