i like that you measure your progress, evaluating the efficiency of your entries, deciding that some of your set ups, its best to enter on retest,,,

about your passive portfolio, i wouldn’t have liquidated it, will have kept it as a vehicle of umndeni wami, ngoba bona bengazi ukuzenzela(actve investing)

i find it interesting that some traders are afraid to short the markets,,, its not like you will be shorting to zero,,,,,the red candlestics are proofs that markets are shortable, the big job is to know where to exit and sound risk management,,,,
indeed, to know the fundamentals of what one’s trading is helpful, i also love trading individual shares,,,, but Jim Simons and his Renaissance Technology hedge fund will disagree with me,,,,

thanks Njabulo for bringing Ridwan Moola, my question is about the market hours of their trading platform, does it start @ 0900hrs to 1700hrs or its like some brokerage firms who run from 0905hrs to 1640hrs,,,,
i like the flat 10% Margin rate
what’s the reason for having different products in their MT4 and MT5 platforms, and is it sync-able to one account?

what’s your trading bizness goal Njabulo? that question will clarify what kind of mentor or mentors to have,,,,
i love Simon Brown, his strengths are risk management, simplicity(his lazy system) and less screen time,,, i heard him a while bay on Summittv now Businessday tv saying he was a trade unionist in the 90s, if i heard him correctly,,,,
you having a lot of trades might also mean you want something like what storm-trading or SMB Capital is doing, there’s nothing wrong with many trades so long you making money in the long run,,,,Jim Simons and his Rainasance have hundreds of trades each day lasting 2 days at most,,,,

myself, i wanna build something like SMB Capital, the following are my mentors
1. Bayinnah Bello, since am black living in a world that suppresses my intelligence, she teaches me my true african history
2. James Clear, habit formation and incremental growth
3. Brett Steenbarger, the psychology and my decision making
4. Mike Bellafore, how to build a proprietary firm ,,,,

makwande mfowethu, i love your dedication to your craft

In reply to mhlahlandlela.

Sibonge Evans.

Yeah we’re trading in a much better environment. perhaps a little too good and too easy, which can cause some il-discipline in the trading. For my biggest takeaway is how important money management is, because we started with a horror run, but because of money management, we live to fight another day to see the run of winning trades. lol I will get him again for a slightly longer show.

Makwande Mhlanhlandlela thank you for you continued support

took Simon Brown, 4-5 years to break even during an era of high commission costs (1995 – 2000), using charts that were expensive to get, no internet, or horrible one at best,,,,,
us who are trading in 2020 can only be grateful, the trading school fees is now cheaper, commissions are next to nothing 0,20% round trip at gt247.com and others, charts are less expensive or free, i can go back many years into historical data using investing.com and backtests my strategies easily,,,, am grateful to be living in these times,,,

indeed patience and discipline are pillars in any endeavor, discipline in preparation, execution, management and post-mortem analysis,,,,

ke a leboha Njabulo, this interview was tooooo short ,,,, makwande

In reply to mhlahlandlela. You could not have said it any better my friend. It's only when we trade with a lack of discipline that we are gamblers instead of owning the casino ourselves and bet on probabilities.
