Michael,

First let me thank you for the opportunity to email you and for your book “Trend Following”. I am in my first year of trading and have read over 20 books including Trend Following and Trend Commandments. Both of these were GREAT! I am having some difficulties forming a good watch list to apply my strategies with. Along with that I am trading using options. Which I am kind of finding it difficult to do. I believe I can find a way.

Thank you,

Robert

Ep. 822 is great! Thank You!

The apparent loss of respect for the Master/Apprentice relationship – and why it works – is going to be societal disaster. The “Masters” are not going to put all their skill & wisdom on the Internet, no way no how.

If Antonio Stradivari didn’t have any apprentices, the knowledge & skill of how to make a fantastic violin would have been lost.

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

I came across your book through Steve Burns books as I am trying to start my journey in Trend trading and currently doing my research and learning to trade this way. My biggest challenge currently has been searching for the trends (screening for stocks) and then knowing how long to wait if the stock is not moving and I suppose when to sell (especially with weeks like these i.e. Trump/China Tarriffs week). I purchased your book through Audible and am really enjoying listening to it and learning about these traders/methods. I had heard you had done a movie in 2009 and I wanted to get also access through your website and also sign up for the interactive presentation mentioned in the book. I’m enclosing as you mentioned a copy of my my audible purchase history as a jpeg. It’s the third book down and I purchased this on May 8th through my Audible subscription. I’m currently trying to read and listen to a number of books and podcasts trying to get up to speed with these newer methods.

Sincerely,
Ray

Hi Michael,

My biggest challenge is that I don’t have a system.

I look at the news and follow Stocktwits for instance.

Further on I check the earnings dates and look at P/E.

And last I follow my gut feelings.

So it’s some kind of a system but a very bad one.

I want to learn a trading system on which my risk is managed.

One of the things is when to get out of a stock.

I’m holding a stock called Nortech systems.

As I started it want up (in one day) real quick, so I bought shares.

The volume was good.

As it dropped I bought more shares to get a lower overall price.

Now I’m stuck with this as the price has gone from my my price of 5,10 to 3,94.

And the volume is almost non-existing.

As I’ve bought more shares this stock is about 40% om my total trading money (total is 25k dollar)

So I lost allot of virtual money on this one.

There are a few reasons I still own the stock.

– The fundamentals are looking good.

– I don’t want to sell because I loose about 3000 dollar which is more than 10% of my trading power.

– (this is a stupid one) I saw that Renaissance has allot of money in this stock.

As you can see my strategy is very poor.

Thank you for your help.

With kind regards,

Pieter W.

You don’t need:

P/E, gut, news, earnings dates.

Those are dead ends.

Hello Michael,

To be honest, I just started learning how to trade. I didn’t even know what Forex was. I live near Tijuana Mexico so I knew about currency exchange but not to the level of the Forex market. I created a demo account with Trading View and I have been practicing ever since.

The problem I have noticed so far, I have no plan. I jump into trades on guessing and hopes. When I look back at certain pairs I notice thee trends that occurred and think to myself, “wow, if I had entered there and exited there, man could I have struck it rich”. But I don’t know how to recognize those trends before they happen.

I would love to know how to identify the start of a trend. And of course the end of one.

The passion is there, I just need the proper training.

You say: “But I don’t know how to recognize those trends before they happen.”

You can’t do that. It’s impossible.
