The AlphaMind Podcast
Mastering trading is not about mastering markets but mastering yourself. The AlphaMind Podcast focuses on the 'Trader Self'. We look at the person doing the trading, their interactions with the market, the impact the market has on them, and the skills, actions and activities needed to navigate their way through the complex and uncertain terrain of financial, commodity, energy and crypto markets.

#115 Robert Van Eyden: Badass Trader - How to Trade Your Way To Riches
This week we talk with Robert Van Eyden, author of Badass Trader: How to Trade Your Way to Riches
Robert is a true veteran of the markets with over three decades of invaluable experience in the dynamic world of markets, predominantly in his home country, South Africa.
Robert's remarkable journey has seen him excel as an analyst, trader, investor, lecturer, and wealth manager. Currently he serves as the CEO of IG Markets South Africa.
The central premise of "Badass Trader" revolves around the tantalizing notion that as barriers to entry for traders have diminished, the doors have been opened to a realm of untapped potential and virtually boundless earning capabilities for people keen to develop their own trading practice.
However, there is a twist, and that is that though it appears deceptively easy is, it is in truth, a hazardous journey fraught with challenges and dangers which very few are able to successfully navigate.
That is why Robert says, ‘trading is the hardest way to make easy money’.
Within the pages of "Badass Trader," Robert delves deep into the crux of the matter, dissecting the hurdles that obstruct the path to success. Drawing from his wealth of experience, he generously imparts the mindsets, mantras, and principles that can safeguard traders from the snares laid out by the unpredictable markets.
Tune in now to hear Robert talk about his own painful experiences in markets and what he learned from them, that inspired him to write ‘Badass Trader’.
