“I’m still reading Trend Following and listening to your podcast. I WANT TO WIN…”

Feedback in:

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it. My favorite part is the Bruce Lee quote you put in there about being like water. That is the mentality I am taking towards your teaching. I am a young kid who recently graduated from college and just started working. I do not have the money for the program yet, but when I do, I will certainly be purchasing it. In the meantime, I’m still reading Trend Following and listening to your podcast. I WANT TO WIN. Have a good one, Michael.

Best,

C.

We all want to win, but…

“I have spend countless hours understanding market and various theories in order to do profitable investing…”

Feedback in:

Hello Michael,

Thank you for the free introductory email course. It was helpful. I am also learning from “Trend Followingbook and website.

I am starting to rethink about “Understanding everything, specifically making sense of market move and understanding why”. I have spend countless hours understanding “market” and various theories in order to do profitable investing. Trend following is different and change of mindset about how one should allocate investable capital.

Again, thank you very much for sharing so much information regarding Trend Following.

Regards,

Chandrakant

“The biggest challenges that I have been facing with my trading…”

Feedback in:

Hi Michael,

Let me introduce myself. My name is [name] from Malaysia, I just started to learn trading in March 2020 and only focus on Malaysia stocks. I have attended 3 courses for trading. However, I am still losing money in my trading, The biggest challenges that I have been facing with my trading are as below:

  1. Spending too much time reading fundamentals/reports and listening to different Facebook voices causes confusion.
  2. I choose the wrong stocks based on news. Did not cut losses and still holding.
  3. Enter stocks with the wrong timing. Bought at resistance
  4. Do not know when to exit the stocks.

I don’t think I am on the right track and right strategy on trading. Just heard about trend following now. Thanks.

Start here. Let go of your current path.

“My biggest challenge trading is finding, trusting and trading a reliable system in a consistent manner…”

Feedback in:

My biggest challenge trading is finding, trusting and trading a reliable system in a consistent manner. I work full time. I have a wife. I have a daughter. I have myself. I have the church. There is the world. There are so many competing demand pulling me in every direction each day, and it does not get any better the past 10 years I have been trading forex. Chop chop or let losers run or jumping from system or forex/futures/options/index funds…etc. etc. Typical trader that fails. I have also seen success, and the potential to be successful. So many seem to be doing it as well.

Have you considered trend following? FX day trading is fool’s gold.
