“The logic of the stock market is that you often have to be illogical – and that is the great art of speculation and stock market analysis. – André Kostolany“

Political economy and finance have been my passion ever since my studies of business administration. Financial institutions, insurance, controlling and corporate finance have forged the path to what I am pursuing today: Building a business in trading.

I met Frank in 2020 and was instantly hooked by his vita. His way of reading the markets and navigating the charts have impressed me right from the start. I decided to join his community, where he has been doing his thing so well for years now: Sharing his knowledge on the exchange markets and inspiring interchange for everybody in his community to learn and profit.

Since 2022, I am thrilled to be able to support the members of our FX strategies community as a senior market and research analyst and to share my ideas not only for the FX- but also for the equities market with up-to-date findings daily.
