Zach also explains why he shut down his free YouTube streams to launch a high-touch, four-month one-on-one coaching program (unlimited text/call access, weekly check-ins), and the two wrap with talk on futures trading competitions, in-person community at events, and the ASFX Bootcamp returning May 13–14 in Tampa.Connect With Zach  @RealDealFutures
