$2,000 Days As A Stocks Day Trader After Getting Fired – Show Notes
In episode 115 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Andrew Aziz, a stocks day trader based in Vancouver, Canada.
Andrew is the author of the amazing book How To Day Trade For A Living.
This is probably one of my favorite story shared on the podcast so far. After all, Andrew got very serious about day trading after getting fired from his job as a research scientist.
I’d love if you can take a few seconds to leave a review on iTunes or Stitcher. Let me know honestly what you think of the podcast because the only way I can improve is through your reviews.
