Tobias's Story

How did you discover MyStockScanner, and what caught your interest?
I discovered MyStockScanner because I have known Hans-Henrik. I attended a lecture with him for the first time 14 years ago and found his way of thinking very interesting.

I have followed him on his journey and some of the things he has done, so it was natural that I also started using MyStockScanner to manage my portfolio. It was actually something I had been looking for in the previous setup – the ability to have a portfolio tool. He developed this together with Liam, and I have been involved in beta-testing it right from the start.

I must say, the development they have gone through with this system is absolutely fantastic.

Has MyStockScanner changed the way you invest?
Yes, absolutely. It has, among other things, helped me run a lower risk. Too often, we focus on returns, which is of course very important. But I think hedging your risk is just as important, and that’s what I have done with MyStockScanner. I can see it in my results.

Has MyStockScanner had an impact on your investment results?
Definitely. There have been some obvious lessons, because you are, of course, the one pressing the buy and sell buttons yourself. So there are naturally some lessons to learn. Since using MyStockScanner, investing has become more independent, and this is also reflected in the results. In that way, it has changed the way I invest.

If you could give one piece of advice to new investors, what would it be?
I would recommend finding a system like MyStockScanner and starting with the ground basics. The system has gradually developed to be able to do a lot, including very advanced things, but you should start by understanding the basics – when a company is solid, what it means when something has momentum, and what it means when something is a value investment.

You should learn the basics and then gradually build on that until you find a system that works well for you. That is what I would recommend.
