How’s 2025 been for you as a trader? Hopefully you’ve had a good year. The market conditions have been excellent. And also, I’d like to challenge you to review your year, to see what worked, what has not worked, and what you are going to do to make sure that over the next few weeks, 2026 becomes a great trading year for you. Let’s talk about that and more right now. Hey there, Traders! Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 618. The last one for 2025. I’m outside here with the beautiful New Zealand Pohutukawa trees, which are called the New Zealand Christmas tree if you’re watching on video. They come at this time of year in December. Beautiful red flower. But, yeah, I want to make this video just to talk about the Christmas break, about New Year. Reviewing 2025 trading conditions. But also to review your 2025. How have you found it? I’ve found that the market conditions this year have been really good. After maybe a couple of years of more quiet forex market conditions, this year the conditions are back again. Great movement in the market. And we’ve had a great year, like this awesome year. Great results across multiple time frame charts and multiple markets. Daily trades at +30% for the year. To give you an example, just our daily chart trades alone on half of 1%, and forget, we’re up at a plus 30%, three zero, for the year. And still with two weeks of trading to go. And it just shows the consistency. Every single year since 2010, our daily trades have been profitable. But another 30%, and that’s complete set and forget. So, obviously with a bit of trade management, you could do better than that. Now, that’s one timeframe I’m talking about here. On top of that, we also post trades on the monthly charts, weekly charts, and we talk about other time frame charts such as 12 hour, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 and everything in between. Consistency is key. And so it just shows the consistency of not only being able to follow along and earn from your trading while following what we’re doing, but of course our job is to help you as well, for clients to learn so you know exactly what to do. You know what to look for, how and where and why to enter and exit a trade, to ensure that your risk is low and your reward to risk is really high. So really important that you know that in your strategy. What’s worked and what has not worked for you this year? Now, I would challenge you, if you’re not a client, to have a look at your strategy and what’s worked and what’s not worked this year. But also, you know, take this time now with the markets going to be quiet over Christmas and New Year and just have a good think about what it is that you need to do differently into 2026 if this year was not a good year for you. As mentioned, conditions have been really good this year. And therefore, if your strategy’s good, you should have had a very good year. Multiple markets to trade well this year. We found that, you know, the forex market has been good. The non-farm markets have been good. Just this week, we took a sell trade on US oil. That was profitable. Just earlier this morning, my time, it hit the profit target. We’ve had multiple crypto trades, other commodities and indices as well. And so even if one market’s a little bit quiet or one timeframe’s a little bit quiet, because the strategy works across all markets and all time frame charts, we’ve found really good results and conditions on the likes of US oil if, let’s say, the forex market was quiet on that same day. And that’s the beauty of being able to scan different time frame charts and different markets. So, is that something that you need help with or is it something that you’re absolutely fine with? Just review your trades and it’s really important. I traded while on holiday in the US for 1 month. From a personal point of view, I had a month in the US with my wife for her 50th birthday in July and August, and the beauty is, you can trade and travel and trading just carried on exactly the same. And, you know, that’s the beauty, isn’t it? You know, it’s not just the financial freedom. It’s the time freedom as well. Don’t forget, we’re all getting older. You know, we’ve all got less time left on this earth. Use it wisely. What’s the point in sitting glued to charts all day and night staring at charts? It’s like I could think of nothing worse. So, having that time freedom to be able to go and do things that you want to do is just crucial. And in my opinion, anyway, I just think it’s just as important as the financial gain is the time freedom that trading offers you. So, have a good review of everything from your side and. Ask us for help. If you need any help with anything, just sing out like we are. I mean, it’s obviously summertime here in New Zealand. This time of year onwards, December into January, is generally a pretty quiet, cruisy time of year, lots of barbecues and things like that. So we are around, we’re here to help and make this work for you. Attend my 30 minutes Masterclass. And, if you have not been on my masterclass, I encourage you over the next few weeks to spend an hour and just have a look through the website and half an hour on the masterclass. And go and look at the previous videos that I’ve made like this. There are 618 of them. You’re going to learn a lot of those, listen to some podcasts if you’ve got some free time of these recordings as well, and just make use of the next month conditions over Christmas and New Year. Obviously the markets stay open for majority of that time. But conditions will either be really, really quiet on a lot of those markets or, due to thin volume, they could be quite, you know, quite wild and erratic. So you never really know. Our Christmas break. But either way, we’re stopping trading on the 19th, I think it is on the Friday, and we’re not starting until Monday the 11th, I think that is, January. Just having a good break, well-earned break. We’ve showed up every single day for our daily trades. We’re on the forum site the whole time. We do our live webinars for our clients every single week. We put huge effort into making it work for us and our clients and consistency and showing up is key. Our 17th year next year at TFTC. So, next May in 26, we turn 17 years old here at The Forex Trading Coach, something that myself and the team are immensely proud of, of what we’ve achieved personally with the strategy and our own trading and the community that we’ve built up over those years and the amazing clients that we have on board and the help that we’ve given people from right around the world. And, like, you go out there and have a look online. Who’s out there that’s been around for 17 years in this market? You know, you’re going to find hundreds, if not thousands of made up people on TikTok and Instagram and that type of thing. The majority aren’t real. We’re there doing this day in, day out. And the proof is in the longevity. By the way, the strategy in that time has never changed. You can go back and have a look at my daily trading posts from 2010 and look at the live webinars from 2010. Everything remains the same. So consistency of showing up, consistency in the strategy. We’re not jumping and changing all over the place like most people do. We’re not making it up and changing it. Conditions change. This is real, real people outside doing things, family people, you know, just normal people, if that’s what appeals to you. And, and you’re not interested in the flashy red Ferraris and the made up trades, and you want real trading that you can do and enjoy your life at the same time, I really encourage you to have a look and consider coming on board with us and letting us help you for next year. So that’s it for this year. Thanks for your support and happy Christmas and New Year. It’s been an awesome year, been a great year. I’d like to thank everybody for watching and listening and of course all the team here at The Forex Trading Coach and especially all the clients as well. It’s great to have you on board. Loved the community and the interaction that we have helping each other. And I’d just like to take this opportunity to wish you all a fantastic Christmas, have a safe and enjoyable time, whatever you’re doing. And have a great New Year and look forward to seeing you in 2026 when we do it all again. This is Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach. Happy Christmas. See you next year. Bye for now.

If that’s you, I’ve got a great solution for you. This is something that my very first client from back in 2009 has done since then, whilst running his very successful business. Let’s get into that and more right now. Hey there, Traders! It’s Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 617. Do you lack the time to trade? So a common problem that so many people face is they think they are too busy to trade. And it’s fair enough because you see out there online, you know, examples on various platforms, YouTube, etc. of people looking at charts and looking at 5 minute charts and watching every pip move up and down. And you look at that and you think, well, realistically, how on earth can I copy that process? Because I’m just too busy. I’ve got, you know, work, businesses, family, hobbies, whatever it might be going on in your life. And there’s no way that you are going to be able to afford that time to sit there, either to want to do it or to be able to do it, to sit there watching charts, ready to take little trades every now and then. It’s just not realistic. And of course, many people wake up to that fact and they go, well, looks good and maybe in hindsight, but I just realistically cannot dedicate time to doing this. And even if you could, do I really want to sit there just staring at charts, watching 5 minute charts and 15 minute charts, just waiting for that signal to occur? Probably not, because it’s not realistic and it’s not something you’re going to enjoy and continue to be able to do or want to do long term. So everybody’s got busy lives. I get that. How to trade without taking up too much time. So what can you do to still become a good trader, but to not take up all day? And the very simple solution is you can look at the longer time frame charts such as the weekly charts. Now, just this week, right now is the absolute perfect example. GBP/HKD W1 chart with a 4.8:1 Reward:Risk. At the beginning of this week, we suggested a buy trade to our clients on the GBP/HKD. Now you go and have a look at your weekly charts for the beginning of this week. Go on to the pound Hong Kong dollar and you’ll see the candle setup that I’m taking now. Right now as I’m recording this, the trade has not reached a profit target. But it’s very, very close. It’s only like ten pips away right now. If it hits the full profit target, which it’s almost certainly going to do, especially by the time you watch this and listen to this, the trade’s going to make a massive 4.8 to 1 reward to risk. So if you imagine that at the beginning of this week you saw that trade and you placed, let’s say, a 1% risk on that trade, that’s going to make you an incredible 4.8% gain on your account on the one trade in one week by taking literally, what, ten minutes to scan through the charts, if that, just at the beginning of the week. If you took a half percent risk, that’s going to make you a 2.4%, not a bad gain in one week from a trade that took you like five or ten seconds to actually place, and then you’ve forgotten about it. No more chart watching. You just put the trade on, put your stop loss on, put your profit target on and let the trade do its thing. Let the market do its thing. Now that is a solution for you if you’re short on time. My first ever client trades only Weekly charts. Now, my very first client, and he was the instigator in starting The Forex Trading Coach because he used to buy trading signals from me. And he said, look, Andrew, would you fly across to Australia to come and teach me? And I spent about four or five days with this guy and his family back in 2009, and that is how I started the coaching. And he was just thrilled with the system and thrilled with everything I taught him. And to this day, he is still trading. Now this guy owns a number of restaurants, very high end quality restaurants in Noosa in Australia. And he traded back then the weekly charts and to today he continues to trade just the weekly charts because for him he can have a look at his charts once a week early morning Monday morning in Australia. Or he can, you know, have a few minutes over the weekend because the forex markets are shut of course. And he can have a look through the weekly charts. And by the time the markets open, he can place trades exactly like we’ve just placed on the GBP/HKD. And for the rest of the week, he’s out there running his restaurants and managing staff and happy customers, etc. Look at the charts just once a week. And so that is a very good solution because the weekly charts, of course you need to look just once a week, the quality of the chart trade setups is very, very good. You don’t have to worry about news events or anything like that. Put the trade on, leave the trade to do its thing. Have a look at the end of the week. Do I leave the trade open over the weekend if it’s still going, or do I close it if it’s not already hit the stop loss or profit target? So a great solution for people who maybe are traveling, who have got to run businesses, just too busy to look at charts. Once you understand what you’re doing, you can place trades like the GBP/HKD weekly chart trade and end up, let’s say, with a 1% risk and a 4.8% account gain. Try doing that on many other markets and something that’s taking you such a short amount of time. It’s all about knowing what to look for. However, the key to all of this is not how little time you’re going to trade. The key is knowing what to look for. And so the only way you’re going to do that is to spend just a little bit of time upfront and learn to dedicate a bit of time to your knowledge and your education so you have the ability to see these type of trades and to take these type of trades. Book a call with us. Now two things you can do. One, if you’d like to book a call with either myself or the team, I’m going to put a link to our booking account.

Show you some trades on the charts of what we’re doing, how we trade, using limit orders, all those type of things that we do in keeping risk low per trade, and of course not spending much time on the charts each day. Blueberry Markets as a Forex Broker. Now, the other thing you can do and do yourself a favor if you’re out there looking for a good broker, is have a look at Blueberry Markets. They offer the MT4 and especially the MT5 trading platform. So you might find some brokers don’t offer markets like the GBP/HKD. But Blueberry Markets on the MT5 platform do. And that’s the beauty of it. You can look for the candle pattern and the chart pattern that is showing you the best setup. It doesn’t matter whether you have any interest in the GBP or the HKD. It doesn’t matter if the technical trade setup is there. See the trade. Take the trade. Profit from the trade. Enjoy your trading. Spend a few minutes once a week on the weekly charts.

Do you get confused with not knowing which time frame chart to trade, or when to look at your charts for a new trading opportunity? If that’s you, listen up. I’ve got some great solutions for you. Hey there traders! It’s Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 616. Traders are confused over which time frame chart to trade. So today I want to address a common problem that I find that a lot of traders have. And that is they don’t know what time frame chart to trade. And also they don’t know when to look at the charts. And there’s a couple of real easy solutions and answers that I have for you. See, the issue that a lot of people have is when they start trading, everybody wants to take trades and lots of them because it’s exciting and it’s new. And of course, if you go to like a 15-minute chart or a five or even a one-minute chart, you’re going to see the market moving and you think, “Oh, there are great opportunities here.” But of course, at that time you’ve got little idea about spreads. And if you take sell trades and the spread widens a bit in levels, it’s going to take you out for a loss quite easily. But everybody kind of goes through it and they think they need to trade like five-minute charts and scalp. And it looks really cool and exciting. New traders give up. The issue becomes that you soon realize that either the spread’s taking you out and you’re losing trades all the time, or you’re getting glued to the charts and you become trigger happy, and then you become nervous and you don’t know what you’re doing, and you lose confidence and you give up. This changed my trading around. One of the things that changed my trading around some 20 years ago, nearly now, is I went the opposite way after falling for the short time frame trick. I went the opposite way. I went to a daily chart. I took all the indicators and everything off my chart, and I studied the daily charts. I found that the higher time frame charts were more reliable, gave me good information, far less stress, looked at the charts just once a day, news events don’t really affect them, and it’s far more enjoyable and far more rewarding. Your profitable trades are so much better and it just becomes a better thing to do. And when I made my strategy that I still trade today, I did start on daily charts. And then you can go higher time frames to like weekly and monthly. But also I then discovered that I got shorter time frames, you know, I go into like four hours and one-hour charts potentially, but not so much for me. You can trade it. More time frame charts now available. Now, of course, more recently we have the ability to trade charts like 12-hour, 8-hour, 6-hour, 3-hour, and 2-hour. And the logic and strategy that I use works across those time frame charts as well. More time frame charts now available. So there are a few things to answer your question about what is the best time frame, because it does depend. The answer is — it depends. It depends on you as an individual as well. What type of personality have you got? The other thing it depends on is the market conditions at the time right now. And for example, some weeks we take lots of 6-hour chart trades and other weeks we take lots of 12-hour chart trades. In other weeks we take lots of 2-hour chart trades. So it does depend on the currency pair or the market you’re trading and the overall market conditions at that time, because it varies. Look at 5pm and 5am EST. So a way to get around that, because otherwise you’re going to be looking at charts all the time — one of the suggestions I have is that if you have the time availability, you look at your charts once or twice a day. The two times that I think you’re going to find some of the better opportunities would be 5 p.m. New York time. That means at the end of the trading day — so the start of the new trading day. And at that time you can look at the daily charts because obviously a daily chart closes and opens straight away into the next day. So you can analyze the closed daily chart and look at trades then. At that same time, we also go through and analyze and scan 12-hour, 8-hour, and 6-hour charts. And we post trades for our clients on those three time frames plus the daily charts. So that gives you four different time frame charts all by looking at the charts just at one time in the day. Now you don’t need to be there at that time because the way that we trade, we use limit orders anyway. So you don’t need to be there bang on 5 p.m. New York time every day. But you can go and look at those closes. And if you have the available time or ability, depending on where you live in the world, 5 a.m. New York time or after is a very good time as well because that means that the 12-hour charts, the 6-hour, the 4, the 3, the 2-hour, and even down to the 1-hour charts all change over at that exact same time. And again, it’s a time that we personally find we get many good trading opportunities. So as an example, obviously there are two 12-hour changeovers in one day — 5 p.m. and 5 a.m. If you wanted to trade 8-hour charts, there are obviously up to three trading opportunities for you within the day. It doesn’t mean to say you’ve got to trade all three of them, but you could have a look at the close of 8-hour charts or 6-hour charts or 4-hour charts. So have a look at candle closes and you then therefore know when to look at your charts as well. So I would definitely say have a combination of different time frame charts because it does depend on the market conditions at the time. Look at 5pm and 5am EST. If you’d like to book a call with myself or one of the team, we’ve just made available a lot more times for you to book in a call with us. So I’ll put a link here to our booking calendar where you can book in for an absolute no-pressure, no-obligation, free call with myself or one of the team to discuss your trading and see if we can help you.

They’re a really important part of your trading and can massively help you if you know how to use them right. So let’s talk about that and more right now. Don’t sit at your charts all day. Hey there, Traders! Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach — outside on a glorious day with one of my wife’s horses here. One of the beauties of trading, and the way that we trade, is that you do not need to sit at your charts all the time. You don’t need to be at the computer all the time. Far from it. In fact, the opposite — less is more with good trading. Using Bollinger bands. But the reason I want to talk about Bollinger Bands today is that I had a discussion with somebody yesterday who’s been trading for just a little while — not a client yet, but he was interested in how we trade, how we operate, and in coming on board with us. I actually met him in town, took my laptop, and had a really good chat with him. He knows that we use candle patterns and candlesticks as one of our primary ways of looking for a trade and understanding what’s happening in the market. Now, he’s reading Steve Nison’s book about candle patterns — which I probably looked at maybe 20 years ago. You cannot trade every suitable candle without qualifying it. And I said to him, the issue that I find is that if you look at candles just by themselves, they don’t really tell you a lot. They can help, but there are too many false candles. You cannot take every outside bar, engulfing bar, pin bar, or hanging man — whatever it is you’re looking at — as a trade. You just can’t do that, because you’re not going to be successful. What you need to do, as with any trading, is qualify it and make sure it’s in the right part of the chart. I took my laptop and showed him some trades that I had open live — in fact, two of the trades hit their profit targets. They were six-hour trades on XAG/AUD and XAG/EUR, which we posted for our members yesterday. They actually hit their profit targets live as I was sitting in a café talking with him, which was quite amazing. I said, “Well, you can’t make that type of thing up, can you? It just happened right in front of you.” Back to the story — I was discussing those trades and others, showing him the reasons why we took them. Yes, it was the candle patterns, but also where they occurred on the chart. We were using support and resistance levels, round numbers, stop-loss protection, and all those types of things. Why Bollinger bands can help you to trade. But the other point he wasn’t aware of — and what I want to discuss today — is about the use of Bollinger Bands. Now, I’m not a massive fan of using lots of lagging indicators because, well, they lag. However, I find that Bollinger Bands can really help you put the candle in the right part of the chart. Of course, you need prior trends and indecision and all those types of things. But if you just look at the setup candles that we look for, and if you’re looking for candles that occur near the upper or lower Bollinger Bands, then what you’re seeing are potential reversal trades. In other words, if you had a nice uptrend and your bearish candle bounced off the upper Bollinger Band (or near that area), then that could be a very nice reversal trade — looking for the downtrend to start. Likewise, the opposite of that — if you’re in a downtrend and you see a bullish candle bounce off the bottom Bollinger Band, then the market might start to reverse upward. Likewise, we also use the middle Bollinger Band. That’s a great area for helping to quantify trades that are continuation patterns — and continuation patterns are my personal favorite. It means that the market’s been moving up, then pulls back toward that middle Bollinger Band, you get a bullish candle pattern, and then you’re looking for the market to move upwards again. The opposite applies for bearish continuation patterns. Add Bollinger bands when checking for suitable candles. So, go and add Bollinger Bands to your charts and start looking at the candle patterns that we look for. By the way, that book I mentioned probably has hundreds of patterns — but you don’t need that many in forex. I generally find that there are only about four patterns that we look out for when it comes to candle shapes. If you can classify them as reversals or continuations by having them around the upper, middle, or lower Bollinger Bands, then you’ll eliminate a lot of those trades that just occur when the market is flat and not really in the right part of the chart for either a reversal or continuation. That definitely helped him — especially when he could see the trades live and see the benefit of having someone to help teach you that. It’s even better when you can follow along trades like those six-hour XAG/AUD and XAG/EUR trades that hit profit right in front of him. To see those, to understand why you’re taking them, and of course to be profitable as well — that makes all the difference. If you’d like to know more about how we do that and how we can help you — obviously, I met this guy in person, but we’ve got clients in 109 countries, so that’s not going to happen with everyone.

Did you know that one aspect of being a really successful trader is to surround yourself with other successful traders — other like-minded people from all around the world who are out there achieving greatness in their trading and in their lives in general? Let’s talk about that really important topic and more right now. Hey there, it’s Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 614. Do you belong to a community of traders? Today I want to talk about a topic that does not get discussed very much. It’s a really important topic though, and it can make or break your trading. It’s about being part of a community — surrounding yourself, whether it’s in person or online, with other like-minded people. People out there who are trading the same way as you. People who are trying to achieve things in their life in general. I think that’s such an important part of trading, and I know that for you that’s also really important. Survey results show people need to be part of a community of traders. The reason I know that is that a couple of weeks ago, I sent out a survey to people who are not my clients — people who have written to me over the years asking for help or downloaded e-books, been on webinars, etc., but have not yet joined. One of the questions was all about trading community, and it actually had the highest single response. With one answer, it was an overwhelming majority of people — in fact, 76% of all respondents — who said that being part of a community of traders just like them and other traders from around the world is the thing that they are missing out on, and the thing that they value most. 76% of respondents said, “Yes, that’s very, very important to me.” The TFTC community helps our clients succeed. And so it got me thinking, because one of the things that we really pride ourselves on here at The Forex Trading Coach is our community. There are a number of ways that we do that. We keep in touch with people, and when I think about how people interact and I look at other ways that people interact online, what we do is vastly different. The trouble is, out there most social media platforms are full of keyboard warriors — quite honestly, idiots at times — the majority probably of people who are out there telling others what they should and shouldn’t do. People are taking advice from others who don’t really know what they’re doing, and they’re all out there with their own agenda — not really trading. Most trading forums are a waste of time. The other thing I used to be part of years ago — and I haven’t for a long time now — is other forums. The problem is they often get overtaken by some clown who thinks they’re going to dominate the forum and they know more than everybody else. A discussion gets out of hand, arguing starts, and it’s just ridiculous. Or someone comes up with a good idea and a strategy, and a few threads later it’s completely changed because someone says, “Oh, we need to add this,” or “I don’t like that,” or “We need to do that.” And it just all implodes — it always does. What I find is that, in general, on social media, people are lonely. They think they’re part of a group, but they’re not. Trading by yourself, whether it’s at home or on a laptop somewhere, is lonely. How many people listening to this right now have friends who honestly know what you’re doing as a trader? Do they think you’re gambling? Do they think you’re just throwing your money away? Do you have a husband, wife, kids, or parents who just think, “Oh, you’re wasting your time looking at charts, doing silly things, and gambling your money”? As a result of that, you don’t have anybody to contact. You don’t have anybody to speak to. Now, that’s what 95% of people do. What we do is massively different. We trade just 1 strategy, and all help each other. Our forum site is full of traders from right around the world — 109 countries — all out there trading one system, one strategy, all helping each other. Multiple sets of eyes looking at the charts at the same time, all helping each other to achieve that same goal of being a good, consistent, or great and consistent forex trader. Of course, we look at other markets as well — not just forex. We’re taking sell positions on cryptos this week, and you would have noticed that a lot of those are coming down. We’ve got buy positions on some of the U.S. indices, and you’d have noticed that they’re going up. And of course we’ve got metals, etc., as well. We’re all out there doing the same thing. We’re all out there helping each other. We’ve got like-minded people right around the world. As I mentioned, we’re trading one strategy. We don’t have people infighting. We don’t have clans or idiots dominating. It just doesn’t happen. It’s a great way for people to connect with each other, ask questions, and participate in live webinars, where people from around the world can attend, ask us questions about trading, watch us trading, and discuss trades in real time. That whole community aspect is really important. We have other groups that are geographically focused so that people can get together if they wish to — physically in person. There are all these additional items that we provide, including personal mentorship and tutoring as well. The community that we’ve developed over 16-plus years is massive. I don’t think you can underestimate how powerful that is. As I mentioned, from the survey I sent to people who are not clients, 76% said it was really important to be part of a community. Obviously, people out there who are not part of a community face issues — loneliness, self-doubt, and having no one to ask. There is more to the course than the strategy. When you think about what we offer, it’s not just the strategy. The strategy works — we know it works. It’s been proven for years. It’s the daily information we provide that works. The indicators we have — they work. All of that works. But there’s more to it than that. The community aspect of being able to talk to someone, ask questions, see what they’re doing in real time, and follow along while you’re learning and training — I cannot underestimate that. Free 1 hour live Q&A Webinar. If you’d like to know more, have a look at my webinar. If you’ve not been on it, I’ll put a link to it here. It’s about 30 minutes long. You can join it at any stage. It’s an on-demand webinar. Have a look at that. Book a call to talk with us. If you’d like to book a call to talk to myself or one of the team, I’ll put a link here as well. Blueberry Markets as a Forex Broker. And if you’re out there looking for a very, very good broker, I can highly recommend Blueberry Markets. Again, when it comes to support and knowing who to contact, they’re fantastic. Great support, great platform on the MetaTrader 5 platform here behind me, with multiple markets — cryptos, indices, metals, commodities, as well as the obvious forex markets. I’ll put a link to Blueberry Markets here as well. So that’s it for this week. Surround yourself with like-minded people. Do not underestimate the power of being part of a community and having like-minded people around you. Whether it’s in trading or in life in general — people who are out there trying to achieve things, keep their bodies healthy, stay fit, look after their families, whatever it is that you do — we’re all trying to do the same thing: better ourselves, better our communities, and help each other. You know where to find us. Have a look at the webinar or contact us directly if you need some help or would like to come and join us. This is Andrew Mitchem at The Forex Trading Coach. See you this time next week. Bye for now.
