Getting Back Into the Markets
By Cam White

Years ago, I dabbled in trading equities. I would buy my favorite stocks low and sell high. For the most part, my simple plan worked nicely, and I made some pretty impressive returns. I stopped investing in the stock market when my wife and I opened up a small comfort shoe store in 2003. Over the following 10 years, we fought hard to keep our business growing in the face of a growing recession. We finally threw in the towel in 2012, when we realized that in spite of our best efforts, we were losing a lot money. The experience was exhausting, but we learned a wealth of information on how to help people suffering from foot, leg and back pain with the right footwear.

While we were struggling to keep our business afloat, my brother was quietly making money trading the markets. He took extensive trading education courses and built a sound, tested methodology for analyzing the financial markets and making informed trading decisions. In May, we took a road trip from Austin to Mobile, Alabama and spent a week visiting the offices of TradingPub, a provider of free education on trading the financial markets. We were blown away by their professionalism, their services and their mission. So we joined the TradingPub team. I am now responsible for helping to book speakers, and I'm getting exposed to the best free education on trading the financial markets from some of the best educators in the industry.  If you are looking for a wealth of free information on investing, TradingPub is a site you should subscribe to and  bookmark.

The Purpose of this Blog

The Inquisitive Trader will be used  to share my experiences as an investor getting back into the markets. I will use it to journal my trading plan, share successes and failures, and I will use it as a vehicle to communicate upcoming webinars that will be available free of charge. Every trader should have a plan, and this blog will be used to communicate a wealth of trading plans and strategies. To avoid spam, I am not leaving this blog open to comments. I hope you find this blog useful, and wish you the very best on your journey trading the markets.
