5 Million Dollars Worth of Beginners Luck with Jesse, aka @PsychoOnWallSt
This week’s interview is with Jesse, who is known on Twitter as @PsychoOnWallSt, which is a play on the film American Psycho. The amazing thing about Jesse is that he made half a million dollars within 90 days trading marijuana penny stocks, then lost it all pretty quickly.
He calls his approach as a hybrid between a swing trader and day trader and returned to part-time trading after doing it full time. He describes it as a profitable move. He wants to keep trading so he can use the money to open a fully functional no-kill animal shelter someday.
