A refugee from the Yugoslavian war, Daniel Kahriman learned from his investing mentor, an immigrant himself, who made a fortune investing and trading securities using Japanese candlesticks. After years of research, mentorship, data collection, analysis, and countless hours practicing trading and investing with stock market simulators, Kahriman created a trading system designed to minimize risk and maximize profit. He opened his first brokerage account with just $500. By the end of the first quarter, that account grew well over 1,500%.
