The Fascinating Story Of An Institutional Forex Trader – Show Notes In episode 103 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I interview Forex trader Tony Sycamore, an ex-institutional trader with a fascinating story in the market. Watch the video interview with Tony Sycamore Tony started studying technical analysis more than 20 years ago while working for Macquarie Bank on the floor of the Sydney Futures Exchange (SFE). That was where Tony’s passion for the markets was fuelled. In 2003, his ongoing study of markets and technical analysis enabled him to become part of the Proprietary Trading Group at Goldman Sachs. Tony was fortunate enough to learn from working with and watching some of the best financial minds in the business. Trading mainly foreign exchange (FX), he posted strong returns on capital, in particular in 2007 and 2008, before leaving the firm in 2009 to transition into FX sales with BNP Paribas (BNPP). He has spent the last five years at Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA). While at CBA and BNPP, Tony wrote and published the Weekly FX Technical Report containing technical analysis, trade ideas, and opinions. The report earned a strong following from a variety of clients, including fund managers, hedge funds, balance sheets, central banks and large corporates all over the world. I personally found it very interesting to speak with Tony and to discover more about the world of an institutional Forex trader and how Tony was able to make his mark in it.

Most people believe that the best product wins. That used to be true when consumers had fewer choices. But today we have abundant competing products and services. Therefore, defining a new and unique category for your offering is what will separate you from your competition and insure your survival. Christopher Lochhead, host of the Legends & Losers podcast and author of the irreverent marketing book Play Bigger: How Pirates, Dreamers, and Innovators Create and Dominate Markets, explains how to create brand dominance through the right market category. Christopher has been described as the “Howard Stern of entrepreneurialism.” His methods of point-of-view storytelling, the “magic triangle” of business, and insight into market categories are critical for your brand position. If you want to become a legend, join us for an in-depth method from the legend himself. Learn how you don’t have to beat others at their own game by creating a new game for yourself. In This Episode, You'll Learn What is a brand category, and why is it important? How to “prosecute the magic triangle” How you can find the right problem Key Quotes “The category makes the brand, not the other way around.” – Christopher Lochhead “Fall in love with the problem, not the solution.” – Christopher Lochhead “Humans think the person who articulates our problem the best must have a solution.” – Christopher Lochhead “If you think having the best product is all it takes to win, you’ll probably lose.” – Park Howell “You tell people that, whether they know it or not, they have a problem that I can fix.” – Park Howell Mentioned in this episode: Christopher Lochhead Christopher Lochhead Twitter Play Bigger: How Pirates, Dreamers, and Innovators Create and Dominate the Market Legends & Losers Podcast The Ramones Spanx Hewlett-Packard Oracle Intel Xerox Netflix Jack O’Neill Story Marketer of the Week: Nike Phil Knight, one of the founding members of Nike Incorporated, published his memoir and his company's origin story. Knight founded Blue Ribbon Sports Company to bring low-cost shoes to the American market, but the journey was not an easy one. Rival shoe businesses kept Nike on the brink of bankruptcy for decades, and Knight knew he had to change his brand's narrative to survive. His book, Shoe Dog, details the ups and downs of their forty-five-year history. This book is an invaluable insight into the process of becoming a leading member of an industry, and all the challenges that go with it. Stories of underhanded competition, unscrupulous suppliers, a decade of Nike almost going out of business teach the most important lessons for businesses: belief is irresistible, and always take the next step. For an authentic look into a company's rocky history we have decided to name Nike as our Story Marketer of the Week.

This week, our in-depth conversation features David Nihill. Born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, David, like so man of us, had a deep fear of public speaking. But, he found himself having to face this head on, when he reluctantly agreed to host a benefit comedy show he had suggested for a friend, Arash Bayatmakou, who had suffered a severe spinal cord injury (Comedy for a Spinal Cause). He quickly realized the best speakers were also often the funniest. Not because of the one-liners they threw into the audience, but because they knew how to tell a story in a way that made people laugh.In at attempt to learn the craft and also face his crippling fear of public speaking, he spent a year traveling the country pretending to be an accomplished comedian and talking his way onto as many comedy show stages and festivals as possible. Along the way, he not only overcame his fear of speaking, he began to deconstruct the best story-driven comedy and figured out a methodology he could not only bring to the stage himself, but also teach pretty much anyone. Even people who consider themselves to have nearly zero ability to tell stories or be funny.The shared this approach in a book, k, Do You Talk Funny?, then launched a community, writers platform, and conference series under called FunnyBizz Conference: Where Business Meets Humor, with the intention of helping everyone from speakers and executives to content creators tap the power of storytelling, comedy and improv to engage readers and audiences on a whole new level.David realized he had learned something in the process that could be valuable to other businesspeople — most people, with the right techniques, could learn to be funny, (at least on stage) and learning how to structure a comedy routine involves the exact same skills as making a successful presentation. He now also runs an agency that lets anyone from executives to speakers to anyone who wants funnier content tap a team of freelance comedy writers to punch up anything from a keynote or best-man's speech to an article or boardroom presentation.In This Episode, You'll Learn:What it was like faking his way onto stagesHow his Irish heritage played into his ability to tell storiesWhich TED talks have the most laughs per minute.How comedy & copywriting are correlated.That US comedy is a testament to tight TV ready writing.How many laughs per day a baby has compared to adults over 35 years old.That CEOs perceive people with a sense of humor as doing better work.Mentioned in This Episode:FunnyBizz Conference: Where Business Meets Humor80 free tips from his bookDavid's udemy courseArash Bayatmakou's TEDx talkCamp GLP is about connecting, playing, lighting up on a deeper, more meaningful level.
