James Forrester


James Forrester is a retired Business/Management Teacher and Educational Manager. Since retirement he has spent much of his time doing voluntary work for the Bahá’í Faith and his local Rotary Club and supporting family activities.

He became interested in Share Trading and Investment in the years approaching retirement and finally did a Home Study Course, because he felt he did not know enough to be able to successfully invest and trade in the sharemarket without making some of the common mistakes most people make.

His view is that you either pay for education in advance, or you pay for it in the "University of Hard Knocks" called life experience.  The financial markets make no allowances for beginners. Beginners and Experts are all treated alike, but the more experienced do have an "Edge" based on their learning from this "University of Hard Knocks". Even with an education you can still make mistakes and learn the hard way, but you should be able to avoid the worst mistakes.

Since then it has been a gradual learning process using a limited pool of funds for share trading purposes. There have been wins and losses, but also a steady consolidation of learning and a slowly growing portfolio from the combination of studying the market and trying out different systems and strategies with the funds available. Some are conservative, and it "is like watching grass grow", others use leveraged products like options and CFD's .  They can make money very quickly when you get the direction and price movement right, but they can lose it just as quickly if you do not follow the appropriate risk management strategies.

Winning is ultimately managing the risk, cutting your losses, and letting the profitable trades run.

This site was constructed to do three things:

  • Consolidate his own learning, because by teaching and sharing his knowledge with others he finds he learns more and retains it better.
  • Provide others with guidance on good sources of education, if they are interested to learn about share and option trading.
  • Generate some additional income so that he can invest it in the many opportunities that he now sees with his new found knowledge.
