The topic is Trend Following.
In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:
Singapore, and Covel’s recent excursions in Asia How the game has stayed the same despite zero interest rate policy What people are missing when they say “trend following is dead” How you’ll never get perfection Their 800 year study, the premise, and what was found out Measuring human nature The difference between divergent and convergent strategies Risk management Having “perfect” knowledge Using long trends and getting whipsawed in shorter trends The asset class of trend following compared to the NASDAQ buy and hold, etc. What’s changed about human nature through all the booms and busts Insurance, hedging your risk, and the risk transference process Asymmetrical leverage Adjusting to new environments How those that survive are the most adaptable to the environment How trend following automatically adjusts to what’s happening Jump in!
