My name is Richard Allen I am a 48 year old married man with two daughters. My full time employment for the last 25 years has been as a PGA Golf Professional, I started my career as a golf club professional but the last 8 years have seen me take up a coaching role at a driving range.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"How did you first get into trading, and how long have you been involved in the markets?","answer_text":"

I was introduced to trading in April 2022 by someone promoting a signals group. To which I signed up but quickly realised it wasn’t working but my interest in trading had been stirred and I’ve been educating myself ever since.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"What does your trading plan look like, and how has it contributed to your success?","answer_text":"

My trading plan has evolved over time, but now I believe I have refined it enough to be a consistent trader. My strategy simply revolves around the fib retracement zones using previous structure S+R areas and also Psychological numbers. I have a simple plan of checking my chosen pairs first thing in the morning where I look for potential set ups and set alerts where necessary and then if the alert is triggered I will monitor for the relevant entry.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"How many accounts did you blow before you finally started to see that consistency?","answer_text":"

I can’t really say how many accounts I have blown over the years as the amount would be embarrassing and I genuinely don’t know.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"Could you share a challenge you faced in your trading journey and how you overcame it?","answer_text":"

Throughout my learning journey I have experienced many many different challenges which I believe everyone needs to experience if they are to become successful. The main one I would say though would be revenge trading.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"How do you approach risk management, and how has it shaped your results?","answer_text":"

My risk management is fairly simple. I will risk 0.5% per trade and then maybe 1% when my account is in nice profit.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"Looking back, what has been a key turning point in your trading career?","answer_text":"

The biggest key point in my trading career was making the switch from lower time frame trading to trading on the higher timeframes. I now take entries from the 30 minute or 1 hour time frame rather than 1-5 minute.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"What do you believe helped you become a consistent trader?","answer_text":"

Persistence and the desire to succeed and finish what I started is the key to me being a more consistent trader.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"What mindset or qualities do you feel give you an edge as a trader?","answer_text":"

As above, my desire not to fail at something has been the main edge that has allowed me to become a more profitable trader, and also my patience as a golf coach has played a part too.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"How has trading with Traderscale compared to trading on your own?","answer_text":"

Trading with Traderscale and the simple rules that they have is far better than trading your own funds as I now have $400,000 worth of trading capital, which managed correctly could potentially be life changing.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"How long have you been with Traderscale?","answer_text":"

I have been with Traderscale now for just a little over 1 year and would love the relationship to continue for years to come.<\/p>"},{"question_text":"What advice would you give to someone just starting out with us?","answer_text":"

My best advice to anyone who is starting out with Traderscale, would be to make sure that you know your rules inside and out, because what I have experienced is that if you do and become profitable you will have no problem getting your payouts.<\/p>"}],"page_has_this_section_4":"Yes","video_section_title":"Watch Richard\u2019s Interview","video_items":[{"video_thumbnail":100380,"payout_amount":"","video_link":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=k9smUMhMzuQ"}]},"yoast_head":"\nRichard Allen -
