Every time I recommend something, it's always something I personally do and use myself. I can't guarantee it'll definitely make money, but at least I practice what I preach. When it came to dual-currency investments, I used my own money for a whole month to show my friends the returns. When shorting WTI, I also put my own real money on the line. I’ll say it again: I’m not some trading expert, and most of my friends aren’t either. But if I can make money from the perspective of an average trader, then I believe most of my friends can too. Avoid greed, avoid arrogance, avoid impatience, and avoid going ALL IN.
