From Emotional Turbulence to Trading with Composure · Yvan Byeajee

EP 252 | From Emotional Turbulence to Trading with Composure | Yvan Byeajee

Growing up poor with learning difficulties, Yvan Byejee’s early trading failures drove him to understand his own emotional turbulence and instability in the mind through deep inner work.

Yvan discovered trading in the late 90s and has been trading for a living since 2006. He struggled and failed his way to eventual consistency and market success over time. He’s the man responsible for the creation of Trading Composure, where he generously shares with traders all over the world his knowledge, experiences, and wisdom of the inner game of trading.

This is not your typical trading psychology discussion.
