Achieving financial freedom
FOR the unacquainted, feelings of fear, uncertainty, apprehension and self- doubt often stop them from taking the journey towards investing and trading.
Beyond Insights is on a mission to bring out the best in people and to lead them on their financial, investing and trading journey by providing a comprehensive education in investment and trading.
Beyond Insight’s director, chief trainer and coach Kathlyn Toh is a professional investor and trader with more than two decades of experience.
She earns her wealth from global indices, US stocks, options and commodity futures. Despite the worries about the volatile global economy, she has been making 200- 300% returns from the stock market in the past four years.
Before becoming a full- time trader, Toh was an accomplished corporate leader with a decent salary. However, when she started to plan for her retirement, she realised that she would not save enough to retire comfortably.
“I realised I had to do something about this and began to explore the different vehicles through which I could make money before discovering that financial investment was the best vehicle for me,” she says.
Toh attended numerous seminars and workshops to gain knowledge of the right strategies and principles for successful trading and investment.
She supplemented her trading and investment knowledge with psychology courses and became a certified neuro- linguistic programming ( NLP) master practitioner and certified master coach.
“Even though there are many classes that teach people about investment and trading options, what I find most lacking is trading psychology. Strategy- based workshops are not sufficient to equip people with the confidence they need to start investing their money,” says Toh.
Together with co- founder and chief executive officer Terence Teoh, Toh identified what was missing from these trading and investment classes: equipping students with the ability to deal with their natural emotions and master their subconscious mind – their fear, greed and hope. That was when Beyond Insights was born in 2008.
Having learnt from their personal experiences, Teoh and Toh know that strategy plays a minor role in becoming a successful investor and trader.
The co- founders believe that success in investment and trading involves 90% psychology and money management and 10% strategy.
With Toh’s qualifications in NLP, Beyond Insights is able to give its students this edge by conditioning them with empowering beliefs and habits about trading and investing so that they will be able to trade and invest with absolute confidence and clarity.
“We have students from all walks of life with different levels of experience in trading and investing, including those who have never traded before,” shares Teoh.
Beyond Insights personalises its programmes so that people of different experience and financial means are able to kick- start their trading and investment journey with comfort, consistency and confidence.
As a result, the company has assisted a number of successful investors and traders to achieve financial freedom with a capital of as little as RM2,000 and by spending less than 30 minutes a day to invest and trade.
Beyond Insights’ complete education in stock market investment and trading includes the Trading for Consistent Success course. This course on trading psychology and money management provides the foundation for all budding traders who are keen to sharpen their minds and meet their financial goals.
The Power Investing course focuses on growth stock screening and smart marketing timing, providing students with insights into applicable lessons such as screening for and identifying the best stocks for value and growth investing, and determining the best price at which to buy, among others.
Students can also complete other courses in CFD ( contract for difference), options and futures, depending on their interests and experience.
The lessons involve face- to- face group coaching sessions by professional traders, position sizing and planning blueprints to guide students with, and complementary trading platforms and tools so that students can start trading as soon as they are ready.
Beyond Insights also organises, free investment talks to introduce the public to the concept of achieving financial freedom through investing and trading.
