title of men's grandmaster at a record age of 15, and competed as an equal in the highest-rated chess competitions, including world championships. For 25 years, she maintained the highest rating among female chess players. She did not become a world champion simply because she chose to compete in men's tournaments from the very beginning.
At the same time, the children's chess careers resulted from their parents choosing one of several other potential fields. The sisters' parents, Laszlo and his wife Klara, considered raising polyglots or outstanding mathematicians. Ultimately, they chose chess partly for the ability to evaluate the results of their experiment more objectively.
“If you start developing at an early age and devote yourself completely to your work, you can succeed in any field”, – Klara told reporters later, – “But we chose chess – a very objective and easily measurable activity.”
At the same time, Laszlo and Klara raised fully-fledged individuals – their daughters speak several languages fluently, participate in public life, and raise their children. Of course, in their experiment, the question of the line between violating a child's freedom and the parents' concern for their happy future remains open. However, in Arseniy's case, the training began in adolescence, allowing him to choose the fields that interested him.
As soon as the child shows interest in a certain activity and makes concrete progress, their parents take the next step: usually they turn to a tutor or coach. At this point, most children are first introduced to the principles of deliberate practice through their own experiences. Now, they must do more than just play: they have to work hard.
When looking for a teacher, it is always important to understand what level of knowledge their material is designed for and how well you match that level. That's why we chose M and his online course for beginners to study technical analysis. Although M later admitted that by beginners, he meant listeners with not zero knowledge, but at a certain minimum level – which was exactly what Arseniy had. Another argument for choosing M is that his teaching was systematic, with a large cycle of twenty lectures and a lot of independent work.
Each lecture lasted an hour or two. At first, you just sit there and don't understand much: it might sound like gibberish. So, at the same time you google, figure it out, and study. Towards the end, you start to understand how everything works. But it was hard – I had to really push myself.
In addition to technical analysis, M gave Arseniy his first knowledge about the organization of a trader's work and an idea of the main difficulties in this work. According to him, M experienced many ups and downs in trading before he found his style and way of life.
We met M while doing sports. He deliberately strains himself physically, plays music and sometimes drives around the city. All this is to release the stress accumulated during the day, and to rest the mind. When I got seriously involved in trading, I realized how right he was – occupational health is a matter of survival for a trader.
Today, when we train novice traders in our dealing centers in Russia, Estonia and Spain, I can formulate what was missing from the M course – full transaction support. Of course, a beginner has to get used to the profession: study technical analysis, find his trading strategy, and learn professional hygiene. But then comes practice, working with real money, emphasis emotions, and a lot of energy consumption.
