Hamish, FTA student: From a diverse career, to a diversified portfolio

Our colleague here at FXStreet, Gonçalo Moreira, CMT and currency trader for many years, has been following Armstrong’s since 2009.
When Gonçalo learned that Martin would come to Barcelona for a Q&A after the screening of a documentary about his life (“The Forecaster“), we immediately tried to get in touch to meet Martin in person. Being his first trip ever to Barcelona, we simply could not miss him. Continue reading The Forecaster: Martin Armstrong at FXStreet – Part 1
