Tom Hougaard is best described as a high stakes day trader. He started work in the city of London before transitioning to independent trader running his own book in 2009.

In this episode, Tom reveals the tactics and mindset he needed to cultivate the transition from struggling to highly profitable trader.

He shares what it takes to really make it in this game…

Tom and I discuss a wide range of topics including:

  • How he trades aggressively and yet still manages to remain calm
  • His techniques for adding to winners
  • How to deal with large size (> £3,000pp/680 lots)
  • The art of cutting losing trades quickly
  • Reducing impulsive trades
  • Building the inverse habits of losing traders

& so much more.

If you are a day trader looking for tactical advice and inspiration then this episode is for you!
