  • Episode 15 - Why I Am Voluntarily Sacrificing Profitability

    Hey Guys, welcome back to the podcast. In this episode I talk about how and why I am voluntarily sacrificing profitability. Originally in my journey, I thought 'whatever is the most profitable combination of filters/stops/targets for each pair will be my rules. My opinions have changed on this for a range of reasons - have a listen and let me know your thoughts on this subject on Instagram or Twitter: @naomigslight

  • Episode 14 - Bridging The Gap Between Learning and Testing
    Welcome back to the podcast! In this episode I talk about bridging the gap between learning how to read a price chart and then actually testing a strategy. For me, this part of my journey was quite overwhelming, but in hindsight I can see it was a 4 part process which is what I share in this episode.

    Hey guys! In this episode I talk about earlier in my journey when I always felt like I was not doing enough... even though I was spending every spare second learning.

  • Episode 8 - When Things Don't Go To Plan

    Hey guys, in this podcast I am talking about when you hit hurdles in your trading journey. I have hit a handful of hurdles in my journey that actually require me to reroute what I have been doing. At the time it seems overwhelming and like the end of the world, but when you get hold of reality of the situation things are never as big as they seem - everything on this journey is a challenge and we learn more on the days when things don't go to plan then when they do go to plan!

  • Episode 7 - When Should I Learn to Trade?

    Hey guys, welcome back to the podcast. This episode was inspired by a conversation I had with someone via Instagram. She was not sure if now is the best time to learn to trade due to university commitments as well as being a mother. I share my experience of when I was at university, when I had my eagerness to begin learning but decided to wait. The overarching theme is about when YOU can be consistent.

  • Episode 6 - 5 Practical Tips for Building a Solid Foundation

    Hola! Welcome back to The Trading Journey Podcast. This episode discusses the methods I used to build a solid foundation in price. I compare how I approached this initially (when I rushed the foundation and had to restart) compared to when I 'went about things the right way'. I discuss fact sheets, question and idea pads, repetition on a price chart and testing yourself. As always you can contact me on Instagram @naomigslight and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this episode!
