I thought it was about time to contribute in a more meaningful way to the forum that has helped my progress as a trader.
My Background (Briefly)
I am 52 yrs old with 3 children (2 teenagers who live with me)I have been divorced twice . I have
Aspergers which is an asset to trading generally IMO.
I had an earthmoving business for 20yrs until I closed the business 3 yrs ago.
My aim is to make a living from trading asap and I am following a plan to make that happen
and so far seem to be on track
