Investment Tips for a Friend

Dear traders,

I had an amazing time trading $TSLA and $RGTI today and made a decent profit, which was a pleasant surprise because this time of the year the market is quieter and less volatile. That means there are fewer trading opportunities for day traders. Because of this, I usually take a break from trading during the December holidays and travel somewhere warm or climb a mountain. But this year, after the long Colombia retreat and Amazon forest visit, I decided to stay in Vancouver and focus on trading.

BBT family united in Colombia for an unforgettable retreat experience!

In other exciting news, our upcoming TEDx event in Vancouver is just around the corner! We’ve already sold out of VIP tickets, but there are still a few general tickets available, so be sure to grab yours before they’re gone!

Yesterday, one of my good friends asked me how she can start investing early in her life. Like me, she is a UBC science graduate who got a decent job and has some cash flow to invest. Like many women, she feels less knowledgeable and savvy in the financial world and is a bit scared and lost about where to put her money and how to invest.

I suggested she open an IBKR Interactive Broker account and put her savings in an index, which is safer and exposed to major market moves. I personally like the S&P 500 because I have exposure to so many industries, from real estate to crypto, just by investing in that index. When she invests her money with IBKR, she will receive good leverage, which she can use to swing trade or day trade as she learns more about investments and feels more comfortable. This is one of my strategies to maximize my buying power while making sure my money is still exposed to a wide range of industries through the index.

Remember, this is not investment advice, but rather a friend sharing his experience with a young professional.

What would you suggest to her? Do you agree with my recommendation? Please reply to this email directly with your recommendations, and I’ll make sure to share anything I find suitable with her and perhaps even in my next newsletter.
