Top Trader Tip: “Anyone Could Do This”

Published

on

An interview with Popular Investor Lena Birse (Onegirl)

Lena Birse began trading on eToro just over three years ago, and at the time, had no prior expertise in finance. “My main profession is being a housewife,” she says. Yet, Lena found similarities between investing and her experience in managing a household, and she encourages others to give it a go as well. “If you’re used to managing a budget at home, you can just as easily manage a portfolio.”

 

Which eToro tool do you consider the most important to your trading, and why?

The use of CFDs for buying stocks. I love the way you can buy “bite-sized” pieces of any stock. This is important as it allows me to trade with immense flexibility within my budget. This, in turn, is excellent for copiers, giving them access to this incredible market with a relatively small investment. In the past, if you wanted a portfolio of stocks like mine, you would need an account worth millions (or at least a million dollars).

Tell us about your best trade.

My best trades are ones that I have held for the long term. I am pleased to say I was an early Facebook buyer — I bought right at the first dip, probably the only time I have truly caught the very bottom of a share price.

What were some mistakes that you made as a new trader?

Using leverage, trying to time the market (speculation), and trading in assets I did not fully understand. All of which I will never do again!

What lessons from other areas of your life have you been able to apply to your trading?

In trading, as in life, always learn from your mistakes. And as Warren Buffet says, “Even better, learn from the mistakes of others.”

What do you feel sets the great traders apart from the rest?

Two things, really. Great instincts for picking stocks, and having the right temperament for trading — in other words, being patient and not panicking, even when all hell breaks loose!

What is your personal motto?

Be honest, brave, and kind.

What would you like your “legacy” as a trader to be?

That I made fantastic returns with minimum stress for my copiers.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong, 25th January, 2021, // ChainWire //

Xeno Holdings Limited (xno.live ), a blockchain solutions company based in Hong Kong, has announced the listing of its ecosystem utility token XNO on the ‘Bithumb Korea’ cryptocurrency exchange on January 21st 2021.

The Xeno NFT Hub project team includes former members of the technology project Yosemite X based in San Francisco and professionals such as Gabby Dizon who is a games industry expert and NFT space influencer based in Southeast Asia.

NFT(Non-Fungible Token) technology has recently gained huge focus in the blockchain arena and beyond, making waves in the online gaming sector, the art world, and the digital copyrights industry in recent years. The strongest feature of NFTs is that “NFTs are unique digital assets that cannot be replaced or forged”. Unlike fungible tokens such as Bitcoin or Ether, NFTs are not interchangeable for other tokens of the same type but instead each NFT has a unique value and specific information that cannot be replaced. This fact makes NFTs the perfect solution to record and prove ownership of digital and real-world items like works of art, game items, limited-edition collectibles, and more. One of the ways to have a successful…
