ABOUT ME:
My name is Enric Alcaraz Roma. I am 21 years old, an economist graduated from the Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, and deeply passionate about entrepreneurship, financial education, and creating impactful content.
From a young age, I developed a keen interest in financial markets and trading. My experience as a CFD trader has allowed me to specialize in strategies such as the Smart Money Concept, while constantly seeking innovation and adapting new methodologies. I am currently exploring trading automation through bots to optimize results and enhance risk management.
My education and life in different cities, such as Paris and Barcelona, have shaped my entrepreneurial vision and adaptability to multicultural environments. This journey has also inspired me to learn languages like French, Italian, English, Catalan, and Spanish, which I actively use as tools in my projects and professional life.
Currently, I am working on launching a YouTube channel, where I share my knowledge in finance and economics, approaching them from an educational yet entertaining perspective. My goal is to reach 1 million subscribers within two years, creating content in multiple languages to connect with a global audience.
My philosophy is to give you all my knowledge, through effort and qualities I apply to my personal and professional life. I want to help you in exchange of your likes 😉
