With IG since: 2021
Trading since: 2020
Preferred trading style: Day trading
Most memorable trade: Trying to wait out Tesla’s share price, expecting it to move favourably. It was a risky move, with an outcome to match! Lesson learned: use a stop loss to automatically avoid losing positions running rampant.
Favourite financial book/podcast: From Theory to Practice, Daily Dose shows on the tastylive network, and the IG Trading the Markets podcast.
Pam has written and contributed to a wide range of content on financial topics like trading and investment strategies, initial public offerings (IPOs), and risk management for IG and our sister brand, tastytrade.
In her spare time, she trades on shares, indices, exchange traded funds (ETFs), forex, and commodities.
