I’m from India, and I’m a new comer in the field of equity trading (just one year since I started learning). Coming straight to the point. I have started reading the book “Trend Following” just today only. I don’t know if my personality would fit to this method of trading, but thought, why not try it? The biggest challenge I faced? Yea, it’s never understanding why the price of an equity moves against its valuation. Can’t really get a grip on that. Thanks for your time.
Wishing you good health,

Trend following is a very different mindset.
You don’t need to know about valuation to be a trend following trader.
My guest today is Suneel Gupta, a faculty at Harvard University where he teaches students how to be Backable. His ideas have been backed by firms like Greylock and Google Ventures, and he has invested in startups including Airbnb, Calm, and SpaceX.
The topic is his book Backable: The Surprising Truth Behind What Makes People Take a Chance on You.

I started trading crypto Dec 2020. Never traded before. I had luck and made some money (btc, xrp, ada) but could have made much more with knowledge of technical analysis. I saw an interview with “turtle” Jerry Parker and his method seems interesting to me. I googled for more info and so I discovered your page. Hope to learn from your course.

I recently read The Complete TurtleTrader book and was captivated! I had never heard of Richard Dennis or the Turtles before (I was 4 in 1983), so it was all brand new to me. A friend of mine introduced me to several stocks a year ago and I have been invested in them ever since. These stocks are small biotech companies that are currently in their final phases of drug trials. I have made some money swinging some shares while I await the results of the trials, but regardless, I don’t really have any idea what I am doing. I buy shares when they are on sale (to me that means any day where there is at least a 10% drop) and sell them higher later – whether that be a day or 3 months later. My biggest challenge is that I am not good at reading charts and identifying trends. I would like to become proficient at it and hone my skills as a technical trader and learn the trend trading system. I don’t short, use options or calls, and frankly I don’t want to either. I don’t know anything about that world and would not dare engage in it. I want to keep things simple as much as possible. I am looking forward to the Trend Following course!
Sincerely,
Chris
