Just wanted to send a note and say I hope you had a good Happy Thanksgiving across the pond! Your monologues have been great the last few months! Thanks for telling the truth and it’s hilarious. Also I still can’t believe people email you not understanding trend following. I’m not sure how much more clear you have to be. Have a good one Mike!

Joe C.

Thanks!

Hi, I wish it were only “one” challenge [on trading] but if I had to pick one, it would be learning how to sort through all the noise and find reliable information.

Thanks,
Steve

I see it more than that. A lot more. You need:

• Exact rules for selecting your tracking portfolio.
• Exact rules for entering your trades at the right time.
• Exact rules for exiting your trades with a loss.
• Exact rules for exiting your trades with a profit.
• Exact rules for how much money to bet on each trade.

See my FAQS below.

Hi Michael, I enjoy your podcast very much and the discipline of trend following interests me greatly. I have a question about your trading courses: is backtesting included in any of those? If so, does it allow you to test a system on a large number of stock simultaneously, or is the user limited to testing one stock at a time? The latter is what I’ve encountered with the products I’ve looked at so far. I’m a decent amateur coder (python) and I’ve put together something inelegant but useful to download price data and calculate MA crosses, position sizes, stops, etc, but I don’t have the time (or the confidence in my coding skills) to put together a backtesting program that I would want to rely on. Thank you for any guidance you can provide, and congratulations on a fascinating podcast!

Thank you,
Eric

Thanks. An answer.
