      ATFX also hosted its own exclusive panel, “Trading Psychology vs Strategy,” featuring Hormoz Faryar, Linton White, Gavin Hendrikse, Sales Manager at ATFX Africa, and Caleb Martin, Sales Manager at ATFX Africa. The session explored how mindset and disciplined execution influence trading success, reinforcing ATFX’s commitment to trader education and long-term resilience.
