Education Coach, Cybersecurity

Developed a profitable day trading method from the ground up, using a combination of technical indicators, fundamental analysis and social media trends to spot momentum stock plays either before they happened or at crucial points during their periods of volatility. I utilized indicators such as support and resistance and RSI to generate consistent profits on a daily basis. During this I learned about many industries, including pharma, shipping, energy, crypto, NFTs, and many others. This job also involved digging into public business filings, including earnings reports, beneficial ownership reports, and any other filings that could be used to predict stock price movements. Specialized in trading energy, biotech, crypto and emerging market stocks.
