Timon Rossolimos is a professional trader, author, and founder of MATI Trader (Pty) Ltd, whose mission is to help people trade well, build wealth, and live free.
Timon empowers traders globally with free insights, structured lessons, and VIP real-time signals across JSE, Gold, Forex, and Stocks. With the launch of MATI Trader in 2017, traders have access to mentorship, LIVE events, and the tools to take their trading to the next level.
I'VE GOT to say it now ... trading is NOT for everyone. Not because they can't do it, or because it's hard—but rather, the reality is that trading is something about which only a few will feel passionate about doing for the rest of their lives.
