Hi all, congratulations to Big Mike and Futures IO for building this truthful, transparent and information rich community. I have started trading 3 years ago, and if I am getting to sustainable and consistent results was because this website has been a source of inspiration that is unpayable. I am an avid estiver of the vídeos and your journals have been crucial to create my own style and focus.
I have learnt a lot with you all and can say that trading is a journey of self development in all aspects of life, from the mental to the material. FIO covers them all and this proves its quality and explains its success.
Keep on Rollin!
