**CHARTS ARE USED DURING THIS EXAMPLE/CONTENT. CONSIDER VIEWING THE YOUTUBE VIDEO FOR THIS** A follow up from Seth and myself's Q&A video yesterday. Much more to come and expand on this, but it visualizes a systematic, yet not automated, process. This process includes a complete strategy, although very basic and simple in nature, it is the foundation for so much of the beliefs and practices of Trend Followers. https://youtu.be/NXKs_fJd3gs https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiWGC9_PMsWPohL8S6ceoOn3WWoq__ZB3…

Building on the last discussion about setting individual position risk limits using stops and position sizing, we talk about how we think about risk and volatility on a portfolio level. How we use correlation and other tools to select the instruments to trade and how to divide risk up over return drivers. https://youtu.be/wupuHyfL40A https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiWGC9_PMsWPohL8S6ceoOn3WWoq__ZB3…

Why and How to be More Systematic 51:38

5 years之前51:38

51:38

Sam from Manchester, UK sent us the following, we give our takes. 1. Why do you trade systematically over rules based discretionary? 2. Do you have a overall portfolio risk limit? Like 20% at any one day max. Or because you have so much diversification is all you capital in the market? Are you always long or short an instrument or do you sometimes go cash? 3. I’m interested to know the process of how to become systematic like what platform and skills are needed. Does it sit within your broker platform and take trades for you or does it just send a signal to your laptop when to buy or sell a particular asset. I want to eventually because systematic as possible because think it’s better when scaling up and takes emotion and obviously any discretion out of trading. https://youtu.be/A-M-iYyFwB8 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiWGC9_PMsWPohL8S6ceoOn3WWoq__ZB3…

Another way to diversify a trading system is to trade multiple speeds of the same system. In this video we begin to look at what is involved.

Why Trend Following? 58:03

5 years之前58:03

58:03

Sam and Seth lay out why they choose trend following touching on economic theory, human psychology, and price action. Why Trend Following? Why we think it's a good idea. Why we do it. Why we like it (over other strategies). Why not just buy and hold? File this in the camp of foundational and theoretical, rather than technical, but important in understanding and sticking with the approach to achieve it's long term objectives. As always, the origin of most of the content is YouTube- so check out the video for this episode as well as a playlist that holds all current and future videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqKtKc75uzU https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiWGC9_PMsWPohL8S6ceoOn3WWoq__ZB3…

Sam and Seth cover some basic trend following entry and exit techniques and getting your charts setup for success. You need to capture trends for success, but first you need to be able to identify trends systematically and consistently. Visualizing different methods are a great start and this is where the foundation of your approach begins- with the entry. Time Series Momentum and Ichimoku are featured, building upon Moving Average (crossovers), Donchian Channels (hi-low breakouts), and Bollinger Bands (volatility channels) which were featured last time. Also discussed are Keltner channels and STARC/Stoller bands. Why and how each generates a signal is introduced, in an effort for the trader to think deeply about their strategy's components and understand what they are achieving and how they go about it. **THIS EPISODE IS VERY VISUAL .
