Brian Niggemann

I began the financial industry in 1995 buying/selling mutual funds and US stocks. In 2007 I switched full-time to forex, later adding cryptocurrencies because of expanded interest in the field. I trade forex on the MT4 and write forex/cryptocurrency reports consisting of news and technical analysis. My writing has a nice balance of technical information for the seasoned trader, with plain enough language for a beginner.
