Ep. 187: Charles Faulkner Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

Charles Faulkner

My guest today is Charles Faulkner, an author, trader, and international expert on modeling the knowledge and performance of exceptional individuals. He was originally featured in “The New Market Wizards” by Jack Schwager.

The topic is trading psychology.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Behavior, emotions, decision-making, and intuition in the world of money–and what money does to us on a biological level
  • Neurolinguistic Programming
  • How money in the mind influences money in the world
  • The schizophrenic-seeming handout to the two recent Nobel Prize winners
  • “System one” and “system two”
  • How “one” is running all the time, how “two” takes effort–and where Faulkner hopes to take this research
  • How experience can teach “system one”
  • New lightbulb moments in current research
  • How the “afraid to lose” (or in Singapore, Kiasu) concept could be terribly dangerous when applied to money
  • Why the less you know about something, the clearer the image–and the more certain you are that it’s real and true
  • The need for certainty
  • Money as a living metaphor; sunk costs
  • The Myers-Briggs instrument
  • Rituals and money
