Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 602. I’m back home in New Zealand after 4 weeks in the US. Back in beautiful New Zealand. Back in the winter here. Lovely dark blue sky day. Sunny days. Really great to be home. But we had a great four weeks traveling around the US. I drove on the wrong side of the road for me, and I covered over 4000 miles or 6500km, and we visited ten states. Now, on that trip, I carried on trading exactly the same as I would have from home. Obviously the time of day slightly different. TFTC Coaching remained the same. But everything that I did was exactly the same as I would do from here as far as our coaching is concerned. We still had our live weekly webinars, our live webinars for clients to join in, European session and US session. We still posted our daily trades each day. We still had our form site updated and so everything carried on. Lessons from trading while on the road – see here https://theforextradingcoach.com/the-30-minute-forex-trader-us-travel-updates/ But from a trading perspective, what I gathered from that trip is you don't have to trade all the time to do really well. And so for me, I took some monthly chart trades. In fact, I've still got a New Zealand US dollar sale trade on. And this week the New Zealand dollar. In fact just yesterday just crashed. And it's really help that trade. But longer term on the monthly chart we have a sell trade from the beginning of August. Now if you've been following me you would have seen that I documented my trades that are taking on the monthly charts, the weekly charts, the daily charts and other time frame charts while I was in the US. So I'll put a link here. You can have a look at those 14 videos that I took while I was there. And you can see the trades are taken and the results of them. Less is more approach to trading. But it just showed to me that it doesn't matter whether you want to travel and trade or whether it's just normal life going on and you've got job, family, you know, sports, hobbies, whatever it might be, and you think that you don't have time to trade, well, it's just not true. You do have time to trade. Everybody has 24 hours in the day, but you don't need to spend so much time as you think, actually doing the trading once you know what you're doing. And so I looked at the charts at the beginning of each week looking at the monthly charts, and at the beginning of the month, beginning of August, we looked at the monthly charts and took that trade I mentioned on the NZD/USD And then each day we looked at the daily charts. Now, because that's 5 p.m. New York time. At the same time, the 12 hour charts,

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So I've just got home to New Zealand, and I've
spent the last four weeks trading and traveling around the
US on a big road trip with my wife. I'm
going to talk to you about what you can learn
from my experience and how it can help you when
trading and traveling for yourself. Let's get into that more
right now. Hey, the trader is Andrew Mitcham here at
(00:30):
the First Trading Coach with video and podcast number six
hundred and two, back in beautiful New Zealand, back in
the winter here, lovely dark blue sky day, sunny days.
Really great to be home. But we had a great
four weeks traveling around the US. I drove on the
wrong side of the road for me, and I covered
over four thousand miles or six and a half thousand kilometers,
(00:52):
and we visited ten states. Now, on that trip, I
carried on trading exactly the same as I would have
from home. Obviously, the time of day slightly different, but
everything that I did was exactly the same as I
would do from here. As far as our coaching's concerned,
we still had our live weekly webinars, our live webinars
for clients to join in our European session and US session.
(01:14):
We still posted our daily trades each day, we still
had our forum side updated and so everything carried on.
But from a trading perspective, what I gathered from that
trip is you don't have to trade all the time
to do really well. And so for me, I took
some monthly chart trades. In fact, I've still got a
(01:36):
New Zealand US dollar cell trade on and this week
the New Zealand dollar In fact, just yesterday it's just
crashed and has really helped that trade. But longer term,
on the monthly chart, we have a cell trade from
the beginning of August. Now, if you've been following me,
you would have seen that I documented my trades that
are taking on the monthly charts, the weekly charts, the
daily charts, and other time frame charts while I was
(01:57):
in the US. So i'll put a link here. You
can have a look at those fourteen videos that I
took while I was there, and you can see the
trades are taken and the results of them. But it
just showed to me that it doesn't matter whether you
want to travel and trade or whether it's just normal
life going on, and you've got job, families, you know, sports, hobbies,
whatever it might be. And you think that you don't
(02:19):
have time to trade, well, it's just not true. You
do have time to trade. Everybody has twenty four hours
in the day. But you don't need to spend so
much time as you think actually doing the trading once
you know what you're doing. And so I looked at
the charts at the beginning of each week, looking at
the monthly charts, and at the beginning of the month,
beginning of August, we looked at the monthly charts and
(02:39):
took that trade I mentioned on the New Zealand US dollar.
And then each day we looked at the daily charts. Now,
because that's five pm New York time, at that same time,
the twelve hour charts, the eight and the six hours close,
and so we scanned those three other time frame charts
as well, and we post those trades on our membership
site for clients to follow and have a look at.
(03:01):
So if you did nothing else, then just maybe looked
once a day at the daily charts and those other
three time frame charts at the same time. You can
do that and literally five ten minutes a day and
take your trades and leave them. The other thing that
I find that with traveling is you do you spend
less time looking at charts, which is a good thing.
(03:21):
You don't need to be glued to your charts all day,
and people get stuck into that routine. They kind of
feel that they need to be there looking at trades,
looking at charts, interfering. You don't. You can place your trades,
leave them and walk away. And that really is the
best approach that's set and forget approach. It's far more enjoyable,
it's less stressful. You just you know you've got your
(03:44):
low control risk if you trade the way that we trade,
and you know you have high rewards risk trades if
you trade the way that we trade, And so you
can just leave the trades and walk away. Now, the
only thing I did is before the weekends, I just
closed out anything that was from daily charts or lower
but weekly charts, monthly charts or any crypto trades, just
lead those open until the following week and of course
(04:05):
cryptos over the weekend. So that just means that you
could just trade, travel, do whatever it else you want
to do. Now, another really important factor which you cannot
put a value on, this it's the price of the
power of community. Now, we are incredibly proud of what
we've built over the last sixteen plus years hit the
(04:27):
Fust Trading Coach. We have an amazing group of clients
from right around the world, all trading the same strategy
and all helping each other. And I think that's very
unique in the trading world. And it's just incredibly, incredibly
powerful to see while I was away other people stepping up,
(04:47):
helping out, taking trades, posting trades, answering questions as well.
You know, we were still there to do that, but
obviously we're traveling. It's just a little bit slower to
get responses and the ability to to talk to other
people who are all trading the same strategy, the same method,
all they're taking the same trades, looking at the same
(05:08):
charts at the same time, and to discuss things with them,
their experiences of trading, whether they have found it easy
or hard, or they've left trading and come back, or
they're on prop firms, or you know, all these different
type of real life situations that people face when they're trading.
And the ability to interact with other people and to
(05:29):
view their trades and to discuss things is massively important
because otherwise trading is just a real lonely business. You
kind of sit in there on your computer, on your
laptop and yeah, by yourself. And so I really really
appreciate our clients and our students that we have on board,
and our mentors and everybody. They're all on the same
(05:51):
page or helping each other. So look, the other news
since I've been back is we have completely changed our
pricing structure. In the past, we've always had one upfront
fee and it's been like that for the last sixteen years. Now.
I've just decided to change things up. And you know,
just traveling around you realize that financially things are quite
(06:11):
tough for people at that you know, even in America.
I was amazed with the price of food and how
I used to think food in America was very cheap.
No longer the case, very expensive, like supermarkets et cetera,
like that eating out. So all I've done is I've
created a document and on that document you'll find a
completely different pricing structure, so you can jump on board
(06:32):
with us at a vastly reduced fee and then have
an ongoing monthly fee to continue with our daily trades,
our webinars, our forum site if you wished you and
you can stop that at any time if you wish
you as well. So I'll put a link to that
document or you can just email me and I'll send
you that document. And if you are out there looking
for a highly recommended broker, I can recommend Blueberry Markets.
(06:55):
They're based in Australia, across the water here behind me
and about three and a half hours that way by
playing and they are a great bunch of people, very
good broker. Most people around the world offer can open
their cants with them. Unfortunately, if you're in the US
you cannot. But Blueberry Markets. I've been with them for years.
(07:16):
I know them personally, having met them in person, speak
to them, you know weekly, Great people and a good
option for you just to consider if you're out there
looking for a broker, and I'll put a link to
them as well. So that's it for me. Really glad
to be back into New Zealand. Like I said, had
a fantastic time awhen the States, seeing some iconic places,
(07:37):
some amazing barbecue food. Highlights for me would be some
of the music we saw in Memphis and Nashville, and
New Orleans, some of the iconic things like the New
Orleans Paddle Steamer up the Mississippi, the Alligator Tours, and
of course spending some really valuable time with Paul Tilman
and his family in the Smoky Mountains. So great time
(07:58):
to be away, great get great place to visit for
a road trip, and lovely people, easy to get around
and to trade at the same time and make money
while on holiday is the absolute ultimate, isn't it. So
that's what you can do. So once again, have a
look at the link that I've got on here if
you'd like to come on board with us at the
(08:20):
Forest Trading Coach and I see this time next week.
This is Andrew Mitcham enjoying the sunshine back in New

US on a big road trip with my wife. I'm
