Murray Capholm Insights: AI, Markets and Risk in Plain English
Clear, unhurried writing about AI-assisted market analysis, the risks that actually turn up, and how to assess an online trading service before you commit anything.
What you will find here
A small number of articles written properly, rather than a large number written quickly.
These pieces exist to answer the questions people actually put to us: what AI genuinely does in market analysis and where it stops, what the different kinds of risk really are, how leverage works when you write the arithmetic out, and what to check before you hand your details to any online service. They are written in Australian English, in plain language, for adults who would rather understand something than be sold it.
Everything here is general information. None of it is personal financial advice, none of it takes your circumstances into account, and none of it predicts what a market will do. Where an article touches on something we offer, we say so plainly rather than dressing it up as neutral commentary.
