Adam has a brilliant ability to see patterns, whether it’s playing Chess, or using Point & Figure Analysis to better understand the sentiment in the market.

During my own time at GO Markets, Adam was always the cool cucumber you looked to when you wanted an opinion or topic settled - a very useful skill set for someone previously tasked with the majority of risk management in the business.

We covered numerous topics, including:

  • Moving from Scotland to Australia
