“What I am looking for now are more concrete strategies for different markets…”

Feedback in:

Hi Michael,

Listen to one of you books on Audible recently and was very inspired! Thanks.

I have been interested in investments for a long time, but have very limited amount of time to spend on the investments. Today I have ok capital and therefore the return I can achieve on this will be very important for me.

Historically I have had quite good trading ideas and long term view on where markets will move, but my timing has been terrible. I have always thought that I need to spend much more time following the market to be able to improve the timing, but here I think trend following could be a good and efficient way to improve my timing.

What I am looking for now are more concrete strategies for different markets so that I can build my trading rules, and then continuously improve on these with time.

Look forward to reading more of you books and studying other material you have produced.

Keep up the good work!
Andreas

Thanks for the nice work!

“If one could only turn back time…”

Feedback in:

G’day Michael,

Just thought I’d drop you a quick email to thank you for all the great information on both your books and website.

I wrote to you in June of last year when I was resurrecting my trend following career. I’ve been going through all your podcasts right from the first one. It’s my entertainment while doing my imagination killing job.

One coincidence here is that I mentioned that I was trading a system back in 2001-2002, what I didn’t mention was that my broker over that time was none other than Nick Radge, great bloke. My one regret is that I had not come across your books (even though I think you had several under publication at the time) and so even though I was trading a trend following system I did not know about the drawdowns or the mechanics. I didn’t have powerful testing software, all my backtesting was done on Excel and I didn’t have the data to see how it performed during a severe downturn. I hit the 20% down point and pulled the plug at exactly the time I should have been getting more excited. If one could only turn back time.

I picked up the latest edition of the Trend Following book for my library and I bought another as a birthday gift for someone else.

Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work.

All the best.

Ep. 765: David Weinberger Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

My guest today is David Weinberger, an American technologist, professional speaker, and commentator, probably best known as co-author of the Cluetrain Manifesto (originally a website, and eventually a book, which has been described as “a primer on Internet marketing”). Weinberger’s work focuses on how the Internet is changing human relationships, communication, knowledge and society.

The topic is his book Everyday Chaos: Technology, Complexity, and How We’re Thriving in a New World of Possibility.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Through stories from history, business, and technology, philosopher and technologist David Weinberger finds the unifying truths lying below the surface of the tools we take for granted–and a future in which our best strategy often requires holding back from anticipating and instead creating as many possibilities as we can. The book’s imperative for business and beyond is simple: Make. More. Future. The result is a world no longer focused on limitations but optimized for possibilities.

“Your work has changed my life, and I am attempting to pass that on…”

Feedback in:

Michael,

Enjoyed the foundation podcast, had a few thoughts on the financial advisor perspective, having been one for 20 years. I have tried to introduce trend following into my practice, but the struggle is the same as the buy and hold struggle, in that people ultimately have to take enough personal responsibility to have some understanding to logically evaluate the investment process we are using to try and accomplish their goals. If they don’t, eventually they will come to a point that causes a them to make an emotional decision.

Your work has changed my life, and I am attempting to pass that on. Have given many friends your books, have never had someone come back as excited as I was after reading. I take that as proof why trend following will always work!

I read once that Warren Buffet always told his family that they should invest in Treasury Bonds, guess he probably knew their emotions would get the better of them.

Thank you always!

Chris

Thanks!
