My guest today is Sunny Bonnell. Sunny Bonnell and Ashleigh Hansberger are the award-winning founders of Motto, one of the top branding and digital agencies for rule breakers and game changers. They’ve been featured on CBS News and Fox Business and in Entrepreneur, American Express, Chicago Tribune, Forbes, Inc., Huffington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and elsewhere.

The topic is their book Rare Breed: A Guide to Success for the Defiant, Dangerous, and Different.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio:

  • What if your biggest weaknesses are actually your greatest strengths?
  • They bring their wisdom and insights to this radical “outside the box” business guide written specifically for the mavericks, oddballs, and visionaries they call Rare Breeds. While most advice guides encourage you to change your inherent characteristics to get the job, get the promotion, get the client, Bonnell and Hansberger identify a different approach: instead of trying to conform, march to the beat of your own drum. By following your own path, you’ll find your success.

“I’m looking for a professional where I can really learn…”

Feedback in:

My name is Felipe. Last year I went to USA as an exchange student for 5 month and there is where I discovered my passion. I have been reading all of your books. I’m convinced that if you wanna be the 10% you have to do exactly the opposite of the other 90%. Right now I’m managing a really small account with my fathers money. I’m managing my risk, just risking 2% per trade and buying if the price make a 60 days high and selling if it make a 25 days low. I’m writing you because I think that is time to meet a professional, not a fx chat guru. I’m looking for a professional where I can really learn. It could be very helpful if you teach me in this long path. Maybe you will never read this but at least I tried.

Regards, Felipe B.

“Somebody once told me that working for a living is the quickest way not to have any wealth…”

Feedback in:

Hi Mike I contacted you about 2-3 months ago to let you know that I was getting something from your podcast and that I have been listening to these every week for well over a year now. I have just finished your latest 1 with Nick Radge. I am also an Aussie and I really liked the way this one went. He came across very well and I thought you both interacted well even when just talking about the general stuff like New Zealand. Please pass on my respect or acknowledgment to Nick for talking the time to do that with you, I thought it was a good podcast. When I become a better trader myself I may look him up at some to say hello. I’m only average at this stage, But I’ll get there. On another note I have the 3 books from you here. I’m in a holding pattern at present with my trading as I have to still work. Somebody once told me that working for a living is the quickest way not to have any wealth. That with the fact I’m looking into upgrading my unit here, so I have to sort a couple life things there. So the plan I’m looking forward too in the coning weeks is move into this better place. Then I am taking a heap of weekends off and I’m going to work my way through your books. I want to do this in the nicer environment. On the verandah or something. And really focus. After I finish Trend Following, I’m really looking forward to getting into the Turtle traders (as Nick mentioned as well he really liked that book) and then Market Wizards. This is my to do list in the near future. Take care and I look forward to next weeks podcast.

All the best.

Thanks!

“Everything else, position sizing, cutting losses short, etc. makes sense. But where is the start?”

Feedback in:

My trading routine looks like a frantic cat always checking the charts, news, Twitter, etc throughout the day, opening, close, and night. I wait for a “perfect” entry from stochastics, and desperately watch to see how much I’m making or loosing. It’s a mess of stress and huge time consumer.

What I want it to look like is what Trend Followers describe. Once a day or week checking markets to ride up or down and setting trailing stops to reduce risk. Thinking smarter not harder. Applying KISS principles and enjoying the rides. Spending more time understanding strategies, my bad habits, and psychology, not random data. I would probably do this Friday nights or Saturday mornings, or/ and at 5 a.m. or 9:30 p.m. each day. Spending around half an hour a day, from what I’m gathering from the resources so far provided.

I really appreciate the mindset of this training. I still don’t get how to recognize when a trend is started, or rather, when to enter one. Everything else (position sizing), cutting losses short, etc. makes sense. But where is the start?

Jacob

The start.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Together we chat about how we as humans deal with desire – the thrills, the complications, the opportunity for misunderstanding. In a conversation, that I think, breaks new ground for this podcast, we really dive into the delicate nature of relationships and how we interact in them.
