Bab 14 Introducing the story of Daisy, a remarkable female trader.
It is a fact that females have an inherent advantage over males in terms of trading talent, owing to differences in male and female brain structures. However, this does not mean that the road to success for female traders is without obstacles. In fact, they face more challenges and difficulties compared to any other profession in society.
Daisy's family background is relatively simple, with both parents having stable occupations and no significant issues, except for one relative with schizophrenia and another with thyroid disease. As an only child, Daisy had a normal social life and pursued higher education, majoring in education and minoring in psychology. Her personality test results were well-balanced, and her trading aptitude test categorized her as A2, indicating suitability for short to medium-term trend trading.
Daisy's family's favorable economic situation allowed her to complete her trader training in five months. She passed the advanced assessment for assistant traders and was given a $10,000 intern investment account to trade forex. Despite making eight trading errors in the first six months of executing her trading system, Daisy achieved an impressive 18.1% return during the six-month assessment period, with a maximum drawdown of 4.4%. As a result, she was promoted to a professional trader and given a $50,000 investment account. Over the next year, she achieved a 27.4% annual return with a maximum drawdown of 11.3%.
In the third year of her trading career, Daisy made significant improvements to her initial trading system and developed a medium-term trend trading system. After three months of testing, she was granted a $100,000 investment account by the trading room. In the final year of her contract, she achieved an impressive 54% annual return. However, after reaching the age of childbirth and with her spouse frequently traveling abroad, Daisy decided not to renew her contract with the trading room. Instead, she opened her own forex margin trading account with a certain broker and began trading for a living.
After Daisy left the trading room, I stayed in touch with her. The trading account she opened with $200,000 has been profitable, with an annual range of 30% to 70%, which covers her living expenses in the UK. Daisy believes that making a living through trading is not difficult, as long as you plan your trades and expenses. However, there are two issues that arise because she only withdraws profits from her account at the end of each year. The first issue is the living expenses during the first year of trading for a living. Daisy initially lived near London but found that the cost of living was too high, so she moved to a more remote area. The second issue is that when profits are withdrawn from the trading account at the end of the year, the amount is intended for the following year's expenses, which requires a rough plan for next year's spending. As a trader who makes a living from trading, Daisy is doing quite well. Since she uses a medium-term trading system (with a main trading cycle of 15 minutes and about 2-3 trading signals/>/>/>/>
