Hi guys,
I missed you. After two weeks of being a paid Substack, we’re back to the free model, forever.
The Discord was taking way too much time for me. Between the Sunday articles and the training in Discord, it was a 20h+/week job. After missing the open yesterday, I realized that it wasn’t for me, even for a cool (almost) $1k a month after only two weeks. My freedom and happiness have no price. Well, they probably do, but I guess it’s much higher.
I created this paid alternative because I was sick of trolls and scammers. If scammers are getting paid, how come I’m not getting paid for my proper work? I really liked the idea of having a side hustle that could potentially grow to a serious income, but this won’t be the way.
This is why I decided to do the following:
Write fewer articles, but more long formats that cover how to do backtests with Python. I’m thinking of one ‘course’ a month with full code and explanations for people to be able to replicate my work on their own.
Punctual updates on my journey, as I’ve always enjoyed writing about the ups and downs.
Potential 1-on-1 coaching on either manual trading or programming. This wouldn’t be free. If you’re serious about it, feel free to send me an email at retailcapital9@gmail.com. I would have 1-2 spots per week to help you create a professional framework for you to evolve in your trading journey.
Additionally, if you want to support my work here, you can buy me a beer here.
I’ve gathered all my programming work here. If you want to get it started, here’s your chance.
The above is the best model for me. After reading Dr. Julie Gurner’s work, I realized I should go for what I want and stop hiding. This flexible and on-demand model allows me to write freely here and offer high-quality content to anyone who is willing to learn, with an option to support my work, as well as the possibility to work directly with me.
With that being said, here’s the plan for the next few weeks:
The above content is the best content I produced so far for this Substack. Take this opportunity to learn from a qualified actuary and trader to step up your game.
There might be impromptu articles if I have the time and the envy to do it.
Lastly, be careful trading today. The action has been very nasty overnight following the downgrade by Fitch of the US’ long-term rating.
We have a packed agenda on Thursday AH and Friday. Below is part of my weekly plan.
Lastly, I know we still can’t access my old articles. I reached out to Substack to see how to remove the paywall and it should be fixed today.
Best,
Retail
Good to see you come back! Or as Michael would say it: „it takes a big man to admit his mistake and thats what i did. The important thing is i learned something. I don’t want somebody sucking up to me because they think I’m going to help their career. I want them sucking up to me because they genuinely love me.“
Welcome back 😉🤗
I missed you too dude! It’s a bummer it didn’t pan out for you but I believe you’ll hit that extra income and be rewarded for your efforts if you stay the course.
