“Buying pullbacks above 200d EMA…”

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

My biggest challenge is emotional balance.

Rakesh P.

What is your exact strategy and time frame now?

Trend following—Buying pullbacks above 200d EMA. 5 min for short term. 1 day chart for investing.

Buying pullbacks is not trend following. 5 minute anything is not trend following.

“The financial industry can’t acknowledge trend following to work…”

Hi Michael, Thanks for your interview with Tom Basso. Enjoyed listening to it.

I met with my finance guy yesterday, and with that recent visit in mind, it dawned on me. The financial industry can’t acknowledge trend following to work. Why? The majority of people in the industry would be lost. They don’t know how to do it. The industry has to maintain the “on average” thinking, meaning “on average” the markets go up over time. It’s crazy how their answer is “they always go up.”

Take care,
Matt P.

“Identify a trend, find an entry and identify when a trend is over…”

Hello Michael,

I am new to the trend following approach. I am listening to your Trend Following book currently. What I have not seen or heard just yet are the time frames recommended and the signals some trend followers like to use to identify a trend, find an entry and identify when a trend is over. Those are my main challenges to understanding the approach currently. I day trade and swing trade Crypto now but I want to expand to other asset classes. I have enjoyed listening to your book so far and want to know more about trend following.

All the Best,
Richard D.

Trend following is not day trading. Trend following is not swing trading. Trend following is daily or weekly bars.

“Where to consistently set the stop loss…”

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Where to consistently set the stop loss [is my challenge]. I work off of having the 4H in line with the 15M and in line with the 1 minute, but sometimes when the 1 minute does a trend change, price goes and stops be out before going to my take profit area.

Best regards,
Jake G.

What you are currently doing is not trend following. And now for the blunt truth — what you are doing will never work. I can help when you are ready.
