Zach Hurwitz Interviews Aaron Fifield About His Trading Techniques
In episode 25, Zach Hurwitz interviewed the host to see about what his trading process was like, after being a guest on episode 11. So 25 episodes later, the host thought it would be a great idea to update all of you about his progress.
Zach doesn’t hold back when he asks questions. He fires questions to Aaron, and then later in the episode, the tables turn. And all of the question has been submitted by listeners, so you may hear your own question being asked on the show!
