A trainee London cab driver has triumphed in a competition, run by the spread betting firm of Icap boss Michael Spencer, to find the UK’s top amateur trader.
John Walsh, a 29 year-old client services executive who is currently studying to become a cab driver, was today confirmed as the winner of City Index's Trading Academy. Walsh saw off competition from a recruitment consultant and a freelance journalist to scoop the £100,000 cash prize.
