In this TechnicalTraders Podcast episode, we speak with Mike Swanson,  the editor of WallStreeWindow.com. For 20 years Mike has been sharing his insights in an email to subscribers that dives into local, regional, and global news events and how they affect the financial markets.

Mike has been trading and investing for the past 30 years and has learned a lot from his early days when, like many others, he invested a bunch, got lucky, and then lost most of it. It was at this point Mike decided to knuckle down and actually put in the work needed to become a successful trader and investor. 

He found and honed down a trading/investing strategy and a money management strategy that works for his style. And Mike continues to learn by reading books such as Market Wizard by Jack Schwager and Secrets To Profiting In Bull And Bear Markets by Stan Weinstein.
