“If trend following is so successful why do you sell products about how to do it…”

Feedback in:

Michael,

Biggest challenges I have faced in trading are trust and skepticism! Seems like whenever I come upon a new investment “system” I’m the last one to the party before the lights go out. I figure if trend following trading advice is making it to a cubicle jockey at my level, then it must be too late.

And no disrespect intended: If trend following is so successful why do you sell products about how to do it? Why not just keep it in house and bank all the money you want instead of dealing with little fish like me?

I’m still interested as there is nothing new under the sun and human psychology doesn’t really change. So maybe there is something to this.

Take care,
Matt V.

I didn’t always know trend following. The famed Nobel winner Richard Feynman says it best: “If you want to master something, teach it. The more you teach, the better you learn. Teaching is a powerful tool to learning.” You can take advantage of your good fortune or not.

On skeptics: read.
