Michael, a very basic question: When a stock, etf., etc., moves to a positive trend but is overbought according to a Chaiken oscillator, should I wait for an oversold condition? I have a feeling you will tell me to ignore all other charts.
By the way, I listened to your podcast with Larry Hite and am almost finished with his book, The Rule. Great read. Thanks so much.

You are welcome!
But what is a Chaiken oscillator? What is oversold? This is not trend following.

I currently have 3 possible strategies on daily and weekly timeframes programmed via ProRealTime: Donchian, Keltner or Bollinger. I would trade as many markets as possible. As an exit I would use an ATR (times 2.3) based on trailing stop loss. 0.5% of the capital is at risk per trade. And I’ve probably read everything Tom Basso has to say about position sizing or seen all the interviews on YouTube. I understand the concept behind it and find it plausible. The problem is: the backtesting results show that not all markets are as profitable with these strategies. But I also know that diversification is incredibly important. But should I diversify at all costs, even if the backtest data shows me that e.g. Coffee or Copper have always realized losses over the last 10 years? Or should I also accept that not every market is suitable for every strategy? What is your opinion on that? Thanks in advance.
Many greetings,
David
You have three strategies? Why is that exactly? Your current portfolio is? What does diversify at all costs mean? How you select a trend following tracking portfolio and how that portfolio is rebalanced every year is critical. You need rules.

Hi Michael,
My biggest challenge is I do not yet know of a profitable trend following system that can work for me on my IBKR accounts (especially commodity futures) and I continue to hunt for those who are better at this than I could ever be (including gauging if they can run the account for me.)
Kind regards,
Ravi B.
Your system and time frame now?
As I make progress with your 5th edition book, as well as my own research, I have a question for you. Out of Dunn, Mulvaney, Tulip Trends (Progressive Capital) & Campbell which one is more resilient and one that you would pick out? Not going to hold you to your answer but I am curious. I am keenly aware each TF fund has its own unique “edge” but you would know a whole lot better. My aim is to get on with a TF fund program by H1. (I am a non-resident national of India who lives in the Middle East – sharing for context.)
Public trend following funds share their performance and answer questions. There is no one size fits all. I don’t recommend one over another. That’s on you to decide.

Hello Michael, I think that the biggest challenge I have is a distraction. There are multiple factors which are distracting me, but I am working on that to stay focused.
Kind regards

Your strategy and time frame now?
The strategy relies on Elliott Waves. Mainly, I operate on 30M and 1HR graphs, so the time with the position is limited to a few days maximum.
Stop the 30M and 1HR bars. Stop the Elliott Waves. It’s nonsense.
