Should You Jump or Not? Some Good Thinking

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Hey Mike:

I’ve been trading on and off for about 20 years but I finally have created a fully back tested system that I’m really happy with. I’m thinking of becoming a full-time trader and quitting my job to be fully focused on getting consistently competent. As my system only works on daily price I only really need about 30 minutes a day to execute my scan and trade. I’m thinking of getting a part-time but I’m worried that this will take from my focus. Before I had my current job for the past year I was self employed in retail and hospitality for 15 years so I have an understanding of being an entrepreneur however I feel that having these businesses and trading at the same time is the reason I haven’t been able to get it right.

Would love your thoughts.

Cheers

Hi Michael,

I’m an avid follower and seldom miss a podcast. Thank you for the frank perspective in these uncertain times.

I am deeply concerned about the coming crash and have taken significant action but am constantly seeking out more information on how to protect oneself financially, politically and socially.

I just listened to the Brad Rotter interview. Wow! Please share information on how one would go about buying the blue bonds when they are available. Water investment is high on my list of actions, but options are scarce.

I’d also really appreciate your video and any other relevant information.

Many thanks for the podcast.

My guest today is Isaac Lidsky. He graduated from Harvard with a degree in mathematics and computer science, was a successful practicing attorney and became the only blind person to have clerked at the U.S. Supreme Court. His story is one of overcoming a rough obstacle. Isaac’s book, “Eyes Wide Open,” is about making the choice to take control of the reality you create for yourself. To choose in every moment who you want to be and how you want to live your life. Holding yourself accountable is the starting point.

The topic is his book Eyes Wide Open: Overcoming Obstacles and Recognizing Opportunities in a World That Can’t See Clearly.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Living in the “now”
  • Heightened senses
  • Luck and skill
  • Fear we create
  • Entrepreneurship

“You won’t get from A to Z without getting from A to B. And the world is going to change a million times between A and Z.” Isaac Lidsky

Statistical Thinking 101: Where to Start?

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Dear Michael,

I have read your book ‘Trend Following’ twice. I have been totally drawn into trend following and now wish to fully adopt it into my trading. You mention about statistical thinking in your book, my knowledge on statistics is very basic and I wish to expand this. Are there any books you would recommend that I read to develop my statistical thinking.

Thank you for taking the time to read this email, you are busy so please reply only when you have the time to do so.

Kind Regards
