My story
From planning other people's money to trading my own.
For 21 years I helped Singapore families plan their money. In January 2022 a book changed how I looked at my own: Steve Nison's Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques. I couldn't put it down — and once I started, I didn't stop reading.
Six months later I found options, and with them a way to trade by rules instead of predictions. I spent the next three years testing, journaling and refining that process with my own money, until it became a system I could repeat — and grow my own portfolio with.
TheTradingDad is the course I wish I'd had back then: rules before predictions, risk before reward, family first.
I started as a beginner with a full-time job and a young family. If I could learn this, so can you.
