My Nature Walk ("Making Trading References")

<div><div>Hello Traders,</div><div>I was out on a holiday with the family at Gold Coast, Australia last week. First time there ever (anyone of you from there give me a shout yah). Had a great time there, got back home and downloaded the photos. One of the days we took a walk in the rain forest at Mary Cairncross Nature Reserve, inspired me to write this blog to make references to Trading. </div><div>There are so many things occurring in nature that we can use to relate back to the Trading world to understand, learn and improve. Caught some photos during the walk here below. </div><div><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/11e264_fafaf50e7e0442e586115eb74496afd9~mv2_d_2976_3968_s_4_2.jpg" /><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/11e264_b9cdc9611ef84df7bf0dd89e26548ab0~mv2_d_2976_3968_s_4_2.jpg" /><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/11e264_93d059e1ed194387b7af9df93d63c1ac~mv2_d_2976_3968_s_4_2.jpg" /></div><div>Diverse Wildlife: &quot;In our trading/investment journey, we will encounter different financial instruments displaying different characteristics and movements. To trade them, we have to understand them and know the dangers (or safety) that lurks within them.
