Steven Anthonis

I hold a Master's degree in Business Administration. During my studies I started investing on the stock market. My passion for finance led me to start writing for a financial website, with a particular focus on technical analysis of stocks and indices. This expertise opened opportunities to conduct seminars on technical analysis for clients of a renowned Belgian online broker. In 2011, this culminated in the publication of my book, Leren Traden (Learning to Trade). I have a wide-ranging interest in all things finance, including saving, investing in stocks, real estate, startups, and bitcoin. My insights on bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are featured in the free course Bitcoin and Crypto Explained, where you can find numerous articles authored by me.
