8 TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR TRADERS JONATHAN RAWICZ: CFA ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR, QUILTER The skills I acquired will allow me to improve my investment decisions, by complementing my existing fundamental analysis skills with technical analysis skills. In particular, I really valued the fact that the course was given by actual market practitioners in a live market environment. In addition, the opportunity to sit amongst the traders on the floor rather than just in a class-room, it gave me a much better understanding of what a trading floor is actually like and what trading day in day out is really all about. YANA PANKRATOVA, AMPLIFY TRADER & INSEAD MBA I joined Amplify to fulfil my long term dream to become a trader and to study markets. Throughout the program I learned how to understand what fundamental factors drive price activity, gain good competency in tech analysis and I applied the risk management techniques taught. I started trading on the live markets focussing on fixed income products such as the German Bund and US Treasury Bonds. I continue to trade with Amplify building on my live market experience in my progression towards joining a Hedge Fund on completion of my MBA. I really valued the fact that the course was given by actual market practitioners in a live market environment.
