Losing his job was the trigger that propelled Neal from beginner to trading coach. Like others in the travel industry, Neal Bateman’s job was put on hold during the pandemic.

Through big wins and hard losses, he stayed the course, educated himself, found a trading coach, and became a full time trader. He now coaches others through their own trading journeys. Neal’s story shows how with determination and hard work anyone can become a successful trader.

The Forex market is the most active financial market, trading over 7.5 trillion USD per day. Given the level of activity and volatility in this market, a well-planned trading strategy is required to make the most of these opportunities. However, building such a strategy can be challenging for beginners.
The 5-3-1 forex trading technique simplifies that. It helps traders develop a clear trading plan for the forex market. Unlike other techniques that focus on trading mechanisms, chart patterns, and indicators, the 5-3-1 technique allows traders to narrow down the Forex pairs they would like to trade, the trading strategies they want to use, and choose a time of the day to trade.
In this episode, Alison and Chris outline how to define which currency pairs you should choose, how to choose trading strategies that suit your risk appetite and trading style, and how to figure out which time of the day will create the best trading opportunities.
