Trend trading, and the psychology

Michael does an excellent job of drilling down and bringing out the very best and his interviews. trend trading is the Mac daddy of trading.
My current read is Trend Trading, Timing. Market Tides by Kedrick Brown. trend trading is a lot less work than being in and out of the market throughout the week. Kudos Michael Covel.

Expert advice from those with proven track records

I started listening to the Trend Following podcast for the trading expertise, but I have to say the diversity of guests Michael brings on really makes the show about so much more than just trading strategy. One of my favorite episodes was an interview with Richard Feynman. Being able to hear the thoughts an experience of someone who has done so much in our world was fantastic. Definitely recommend.

Dazalemd ,

Covel cuts to the chase

I came across Michael years ago with his first Trend Following book. I’ve got several of his books and listen to his podcast regularly. Such great and varied guests on his podcasts.
And his own commentary podcasts make you really question your ideas on economics and social psychology.
