My Trading Skills was formed in 2017 and we have been helping private traders ever since.

Back in 2016 the UK’s Financial Services regulator, the FCA, reviewed retail trading and found that 82% of traders lost money – or to put it another way 18% (about 1 in every 5) traders made money or broke even.

Trading is a zero-sum game so you’re going to get winners and losers but it need not be this one-sided. The fundamental truth is:  Too many new private traders come into trading unprepared and under-skilled. 

With decades of experience training and working in brokerages in the retail derivatives industry, we saw an opportunity to offer a service, focused around the 3 steps all traders need to navigate, to help solve this very real problem.
