The First-Step Breakthrough Trader

This month is a terrific story. This is a strong lady of farming stock, who has a very driven and focused husband, that supports her 100% in their journey together. Like many clients, placing the first trade and be a real challenge – just hitting the go button and I know that now she has done this, there will be no stopping her.

This trade, she placed in my boardroom a few weeks ago and it was so exciting to see that jubilation of conquering fear and just doing it. With her Husband Harry encouraging her at each step, Karen took her first Covered Call on Goodman Group. She pulled income of 1.27% for three weeks and resold options for a further 1.6%, most likely those will be exercised today.

This is a great example of stepping up and having the courage to follow through and it gives me great pleasure in announcing Karen Guerts as our Trader of the Month October 2019.
