My guest today is Jerry Parker, an original Turtle, trained by Richard Dennis. However, since then he has very successfully run a managed money firm called Chesapeake Capital.

The topic is Trend Following.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Series of tweets written by Parker and use them as a jumping-off point for conversation. Topics include price action, “normal” market behavior
  • Recent moves in the Swiss Franc
  • Paying attention to entries as well as exits
  • Why investors are often their own worst enemy
  • The first moment that Parker heard about price-based trading
  • Becoming obsessed with asymmetrical risk and reward
  • Why looking at trend following losses is important
  • Why you can tell a system is robust if it has big drawdowns
  • Backtesting and treating all trades with equal weight
