Michael, I am a big follower with a stack of your books, and the podcasts from the beginning. I trade with a simple ETF system I developed (using spreadsheets), and am interested in exploring what Tradestation offers. This is an email requesting PDF you mentioned on recent podcasts.

I am a 56-year old granddad who is educating his adult children with trend following. Thank you for all your research, and your sharing of ideas!

William Poundstone’s Fortune’s Formula: Trend Following Insights

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Hi Michael,

I’ve been visiting your website for a while now and I just wanted to drop a note of appreciation for the interviews that you put up on your website. All of the interviews I have listened to have been extremely interesting and high quality. I particularly like the diversity of interviewee’s and content covering a wide range of subjects.

I think I first came across you site while looking for information about Daniel Kahneman and came across your interview with him on 212. Which led me to your others interviews. I bought William Poundstone’s ‘Fortune’s Formula’ immediately after listening to your podcast 254 with him and now have a couple of your books on order.

Although I’ve always had an interest in economics, I’ve never been all that interested in trading before but you website has convinced me to take a closer look. So thanks for creating a content packed website and great interviews. I now look forward to any new interviews you do and visit your site frequently for any updates.

Thanks in advance,

Technology… How Much Has It Really Advanced?

Posted on by Michael Covel

Michael:

Interesting clip you got in this one [from Feynman ep 366]. It reminded me [of] something Jay Forrester mentioned in some paper that he thought that computer technology advances that were made between 1946 to 1956 were greatest and nothing of that growth was matched in any subsequent decades.

Please keep up the good work, I am enjoying it.

Thanks.

Note: Jay Forrester was a mentor to Ed Seykota.

Trend Following Radio: A Different Perspective

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Michael,

I listened to your podcast about your new trading system and would like to receive further information. Could you please send me the PDF on the system that you mentioned in the podcast?

Another thing on my mind: Keep up your great work! It is very inspirational. Your podcasts are always a highlight that I listen to when traveling to work. The ones regarding trend following are eye-opening and very educational as I am still learning a systematic and sustainable way to build a method to invest and compound my money for the future. But also the interviews you do on related topics give me a new view on a lot of things in life.

Thanks and best regards,

Jim Rohrbach Offers Insight on Darvas

Posted on by Michael Covel

Mike:

I am so pleased that you discovered Nicholas Darvis. I bought his book “How I Made 2 Million Dollars in the Stock Market” in the early 1960’s. That’s when I first started developing my RIX Market Timing Index. I loved that book and I lent it to someone or gave it to someone. There were many lessons in that book for a young guy trying to figure out how to invest with the trend. Like, “Never Sell A Rising Stock”. His transactions were documented very well I thought. Stay out of market board rooms. He definitely influenced my thinking about identifying changes in the trend of the stock market. I could not put down the subject and I spent 7 years developing my RIX Index which accurately identifies changes in the trend of the stock market. It has worked for over 40 years and it frequently gets me ranked No. 1 in the country on Timer Digest’s Top Ten Timers List. Yes, Nicholas Darvas is the real deal and I am so glad that you are telling your readers about him. He is definitely one of my [mentors]. I am pleased that you are bringing his work back to life. I hope your readers study what he said in that book!

Your friend,
Jim Rohrbach

Thanks Jim!
