How long have you been trading and how did you start?

I've been trading in the financial markets since 2012. I started with the Brazilian futures market, and in 2014 I began trading in forex.

What is the most valuable lesson you have learned from trading?

The best trader is the one who knows how to lose.

What qualities or habits do you think are essential for a trader?

First of all, you should enjoy what you do. Discipline and risk management are essential, along with a good trading strategy.

Describe your best trade so far: which instrument, strategy and profit did you make?

AUDJPY. I made a leveraged entry in favour of the trend on the H1 timeframe, at a liquidity capture point, which generated a profit of 14,000 euros.

What do you like most about trading with Tickmill, and why would you recommend us?

Tickmill offers the best cost-benefit ratio in the market for retail forex traders. I really like the low spreads and the fair commission structure.
