Watch Out Guys – Girls are Out-Trading You! Women beat the blokes when it comes to trading the

June 30, 2014 - PRLog -- Melbourne, 19^th June, 2014

Long held to be a male domain, it seems like the blokes are in for a bit of competition. According to Louise Bedford (http://tradinggame.com.au/about-us/about-louise/), trader and best-selling author, women outperform men when it comes to share trading.  Plus, unprecedented numbers of women are now learning about how to trade effectively.

Bedford states: “Our top traders in my Mentor Program (http://tradinggame.com.au/about-mentor-program/) are actually females, and we’ve had a large swing in the number of ladies getting involved with formalised training about how to become an exceptional trader.”

So it seems like it’s time for the men to move over and pave the way for the next wave of successful traders.

Bedford’s views are backed up by research as well. A study into 35,000 households by Barber and Odean shows that although men trade more often than their female counterparts, they underperform women by 2.4% pa.

So why is this the case? Louise Bedford goes on to say: “Research suggests that women flounder in environments where they cannot rely on the support of a mentor. Now that there are courses like the Trading Game Mentor Program, which offers a high-care, high-support environment, ladies are really spreading their trading wings. Finding the right mentor allows all traders to approach the markets safely and confidently, and this is making trading much more appealing to females”.

The Trading Game Mentor Program (http://tradinggame.com.au/about-mentor-program/) is a 6 month, repeat-for-free course that has been running continuously since the year 2000. It teaches traders how to trade every instrument, over every time frame, with the support of veteran traders and best-selling authors Louise Bedford (http://tradinggame.com.au/about-us/about-louise/) and Chris Tate (http://tradinggame.com.au/about-us/about-chris/).
