  • Love Trader Merlín!

    I’ve been trading for years and came across Merlín as an OTA student. I’m sad that he is no longer there, but grateful I found his show! He knows his stuff and can explain complex theories and strategies well. And with humor! By the end of my trading day I need a good laugh! Thank you for all you do Merlin! ☺️💜
