Overview
James Watts is the founder of The Forex Hub, an educational platform for Forex traders. James, in 2015, kick-started his career in Forex trading. He had always seen his mother financially struggle as a single parent and wanted to find her a way out.

However, as he progressed, he observed every 2 out of 10 people drastically fail in start-ups or give up too soon. Being passionate about success, James never gave up and found ways to tackle the highs and lows. For traders who believe in careful analysis and research, James introduced an educational platform, The Forex Hub.

James learned from his own experiences and adopted the practices that worked best for him. James Watts, with his success in Forex trading, was able to pull his mother out of the financial constraint and decided to help others become financially stable by offering relevant training. For this purpose, he launched the well-known Forex Hub to guide developing individuals and benefit them with his experience-based strategies and methods. James Watts also advises people who want to get into trading and start their own businesses to have a fresh mind and an organized way of life.
