What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Just found this program. As a new trader it’s very helpful to hear people talk about market history and trading experiences. It would be more helpful if the host could drill down on guests favorite metric. Recently an older trader expressed his love of horizontal lines vs diagonal lines on a chart. It would have been helpful if he would explain why? What do the lines tell him about the chart etc? All in all a great show!!!

I’ve so far listened to the first 13 episodes of the show, but have already learned so much valuable information from seasoned traders. I began learning about trading last month, and one of the most value-packed of the learning resources I’ve found so far has been this podcast. Few other places seem to offer the kind of access to real trading knowledge offered here for free. Highly recommend for any aspiring traders such as myself, but I’m positive value can be found here by traders with years of experience as well.

One of the better podcasts about trading. They interview real traders with real ideas. I’ve learn a ton from listening to this podcast. The hosts are real traders with real interest in learning.

sp312_IOMT · Dec 2024

Your guys’ Pod is seriously the best! I have learned SOO much and my trading has improved drastically just from listening to your guests. You guys always seem to ask the questions that I want to hear and really get down to the nitty gritty! The one request that I do have is, maybe it’s possible to talk to some crypto traders? Listening to commodity or Fx traders is great, but the crypto markets are in a league of their own and growing every year. I think your show could really benefit by having some of these traders to talk and reach this new generation of traders. If you can get him on the show, which might be difficult, CryptoFace (Twitter handle) is one individual who would be great to interview. Trades for himself and profits millions of dollars per month. He’s also the creator of MarketCipher indicator. Just a thought… I’m hoping one day I’m good enough to be on your show lol. thanks again for all you do!

Since host and owner Tessa Dao bought the podcast, it’s gone downhill. Tessa, if you’re reading this, here are the things you NEED TO DO to bring the podcast to its former glory: 1. First and foremost, properly mix the sound levels on your episodes. It’s amateur hour to hear your pianissimo voice over commercial and then cut to Aaron Fifield’s booming voice. Use a mixer or hiere one so I don’t have to keep my hand on the volume knob to adjust in real time. Seriously. 2. Take a voice training class. Notice how radio host voices sound fuller and end their sentences with downward intonation. Focus on speaking from the diaphragm. 3. Don’t ask the guest questions about your personal trading journey. We, the audience, wanna know how the advice pertains to us, not you.
