Gavin Holmes is one of the founders of Tradeguider. It was a chance meeting with syndicate trader Tom Williams, the first person to computerise the Wyckoff method, that introduced him to the world of trading.

Since then he has gone on to make a living from trading while writing several books on the topic. He is a scalper and mainly trades futures and stocks.

Here he shares his views on how the Corona Virus is impacting the financial markets as well as trading psychology, women in trading and why he loves helping others make money in the markets.

And, of course, why tracking the smart money is the only way to go.

There is no glossing over the fact that the majority of people who trade the markets, whether as a second income or a full-time job, are male. However, although the world of professional trading is still dominated by men, the accessibility of retail trading makes it possible for a more even gender spread. We get insights from female traders using Wyckoff VSA on what it’s like to be women in trading in 2020.
