About the author

Investor, author and investment educator Colin Nicholson has a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Sydney and a Graduate Diploma in Applied Finance and Investment from the Financial Services Institute of Australasia (Finsia). He taught both fundamental and technical analysis for Finsia for many years and was judged Outstanding Presenter for 1997 by student feedback. In 1995 Finsia made him a Senior Fellow. Colin is a past national president of the Australian Technical Analysts Association, which made him an honorary life member in 2001.

Colin has invested in stocks on the Australian market since the late 1960s while employed in sales and marketing in the food, brewing and paint industries. Since April 1987 he has been self-employed, earning his income from investing, supplemented by writing and teaching. He is a popular speaker at conferences and member meetings of the Australian Investors Association, the Australian Shareholders’ Association and the Australian Technical Analysts Association.

Colin does not sell anything except his books and his writing on his website www.bwts.com.au. This book builds on the idea that winning investors think differently, as discussed in his book Building Wealth in the Stock Market (originally published as The Aggressive Investor), which sets out his investment methods.
