Short form audio discussing life as a trader. My focus will be on how to think, how to learn from mistakes, and how trading relates to so much more than the markets. I will also do some self reflection on my own journey. I’ll bring up market setups, lessons from trading, and trends I’m seeing. I will speak on cryptos, stocks, futures, and certain evolving situations. My goal is to have the content be timeless so listeners can get value regardless of when they tune in.

I talk about why I’m spending a lot of time on Crypto and a few resources to get you caught up. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brad-jelinek/message
