Summary

Michael Covel is the author of five books, including the international best seller, Trend Following and his investigative narrative, The Complete TurtleTrader. Fascinated by traders that quietly generate spectacular returns, those going against the grain of investment orthodoxy, he has uncovered astonishing insights about how they think, strategize, and execute their systems.

His cutting-edge and unorthodox perspectives have garnered international acclaim and have earned him invitations with: China Asset Management Co., Ltd., GIC Private Limited (Singapore sovereign wealth fund), BM&F Bovespa, Managed Funds Association, Bank of China Investment Management, Market Technicians Association. He also has the distinction of interviewing four Nobel Prize winners in economics, including Daniel Kahneman and Harry Markowitz and has been featured by major press, including: The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, CCTV, The Straits Times, and Fox Business.

Covel's Trend Following podcast now has over 2.5M listens (trendfollowing.com/podcast) and has ranked as high as number two on iTunes. He splits his time across USA and Asia, and sees location independence as our future.

it started so well

I had high expectations for this book. The first several hours were so interesting but then the book just suddenly ended. I felt it was hyping up to something and it didn't deliver.
What's worse, the last 10 or so hours of the book is just interviews from the author's podcast. They are usually of extremely low sound quality and the topics are often not related to the subject of the book at all.
I am so disappointed.

The greatest book

The greatest book I've ever read after the Bible. Thank you. I hope to have a chance to return you the favor.

Truly all over the place, lacks meat

There is good wisdom in here. But it’s like a long weird mixtape of trend following nuggets.

There are great pearls of wisdom here here. Yet, they’re buried in a discordant mix of chapters and appendices.

There is also an incredible amount of waxing philosophically about what trend following us.

Little application, nuts and bolts. But a great deal of philosophizing and backstory on various trader’s wisdom.

Some of the latter is useful. But other things, such as his Twitter beef with this person or that, isn’t.

Covel has great concise writing elsewhere. This one was hard to get through.

listening to this has set new paths to explore amongst some very informative moments, great book and probably haven't appreciated it fully from reading only once.

A powerful and entertaining tritise.

The latest edition of Covel's crusade to convert the world to trend following is a well-researched, well argued, and unashamedly partisan argument against the "buy and hold" mantra so popular in the mutual fund industry. Covel can be more than a little scathing about his critics and about some of the argument's used against trend-following, and his wit livens up a serious and compelling look at this particular strategy.

The numerous appendices and interviews in the 2nd half of the book are an diverse and rewarding addition to the main text, and I recommend the book to anyone interested in financial markets. Even if you don't think trend following is a fit for your trading personality.

Narrator is fine.

Good, but no practical technique!

This tells you that trend following is a good thing and backs it up, but I couldn't help feeling that I needed something to show me how trend following works. I'd like to see more of a 'how to'.

I had Turtle Traders on my wish list, but I think I'll look for another author to demonstrate the actual technique, even though I enjoyed listening to Michael Covel.
