Like my last guest, his previous profession had absolutely nothing to do with trading.<\/p>\n<p>But his journey wasn't always easy&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>He actually &#8220;quit&#8221; trading several times because he could not\u00a0find anything that worked. His trading went through the classic vicious cycle of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Learn a system<\/li>\n<li>Backtest a system<\/li>\n<li>Fail at trading it in the live market<\/li>\n<li>Look for a new system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Sound familiar?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Finally, a chance meeting with a successful stock trader put him on the right track and he never thought about quitting again. In fact, he has several stories of how he met the right person, at exactly the right time.<\/p>\n<p>So it really does benefit you to just start talking to people you meet in your everyday life, because you never know how it might help your trading career.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One piece of information that I found particularly useful is Jarratt's thought process when he is looking to take a trade.<\/strong> It might be very different from what you do, so I would recommend reviewing what he does before he takes a trade.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you find this episode as educational and enjoyable as I did. After the interview, I got to talking to Jarratt for a bit and he seems like\u00a0a really down-to-earth and mellow guy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>He has traded from all over the world and I hope you are inspired by his story.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So if technical analysis seems to be letting you down, you might want to take a closer look at what Jarratt is doing.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n<h2>In This Episode<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Why Jarratt sold his previous business<\/li>\n<li>Learn how FOMO affects his trading<\/li>\n<li>Other ways\u00a0he tried to make money online<\/li>\n<li>How a banner ad on a website changed his life<\/li>\n<li>Why talking to random people on the internet can be the best thing for your trading<\/li>\n<li>The trading scam that Jarratt lost money in, that convinced him to learn to trade for himself<\/li>\n<li>Why he primarily believes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/fundamental-vs-technical-analysis\/\">fundamental analysis<\/a><\/li>\n<li>And more!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Click Play to Listen to the Interview<\/h2>\n[powerpress]\n<h2>Resources Mentioned<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jarrattdavis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">JarrattDavis.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/1V9hgwz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trading in the Zone<\/a> &#8211; Mark Douglas<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/1V9h5kF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">High Performance Trading<\/a> &#8211; Steve Ward<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/1YAXQ8g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Way of the Turtle<\/a> &#8211; Curtis Faith<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Other Ways To Get The Trading Lifestyle Podcast<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/itunes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to subscribe via iTunes<\/a> (if you like it, a five-star review is greatly appreciated)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/podcast_rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to subscribe via RSS<\/a> (non-iTunes feed)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/th-podcast\/TTL023.mp3\">Right-click here and \u201cSave As\u201d to download the MP3<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingheroes.com\/category\/podcast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to hear all of the other podcast episodes<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Thanks for Listening!<\/h2>\n<p>I really appreciate you joining me for this episode of the podcast.
