Hey everybody!
Today I’ve got an encore interview with Paul Asmar of Camelback Trading.
We’re both teachers keen on helping students learn about the wonderous world of Futures Trading.
Paul’s been day trading for 15 years and is an ex-NYSE “Specialist.”
He came up learning the market profile and that’s his go-to method to this day.
