Blogroll: Begin With the End in Mind

Filed under: Blogroll — Tags: , , , , , — andrewunknown @ 3:14 am

New on the Trading Blogroll you’ll find the candid, insightful musings and market observations of Bgin2end, a budding entrepreneur of the more traditional variety-cum-forex trader.

Recently begun on the tortuous path of active trading, Michael (as he’s otherwise known) journals not only his trades (which appear limited to EUR/USD at this stage) as he moves in and out of them but the small psychological setbacks and victories attendant to those decisions. Sharp but not overtly (overly?) analytical (search my previous posts for examples of the latter…erm, quality), emotionally transparent but not hyper-introspective, Begin With the End in Mind regularly logs steps – forward and back – along the nascent journey of an aspiring trader who I think shows the honesty, intelligence, capacity for critical self-examination and raw perseverance necessary to trading successfully.

He also share my predilection toward half-rapturously watching Rocky training montages, which, in sum, makes him among the best, most cultured and generally magnanimous people I’ve ever come across.

Blogroll: Trading Groove

Filed under: Blogroll — andrewunknown @ 10:13 am

Check out Trading Groove : JEB is a fellow trader working at the sometimes difficult task (in my experience, anyway) of trading effectively and productively whilst preoccupied with full-time employment.  

A trading journal with occasional articles thrown in, I like JEB’s transparency, lack of bombast/denunciatory language/pedagogical filler (a lot of trader/blogger types seem driven to either fill up their posts heaping derision on others or talk down in an admonishing, teacherly fashion to their students readers), obvious motivation and analytical insights.  

Thanks for the good content, JEB, and best of luck as you continue trading.

The Lonely Trader

The Lonely Trader (TLT) posted some gracious comments about what I’m up to here at his eponymously-named blog. Thanks to TLT, and one good turn does deserve another: traders-helping-traders, the brotherhood of man, egregious examples of egalitarianism, and all that. Seriously, TLT’s blog has some very good forex-related content – definitely worth a look!
