Hello themickey, Each of those guys are worth +$50 million buddy today. The one on the bottom left name is Lil Wayne, he worth about +$500 Million. Best rap artist ever. They well paid.
If I'm not mistaken, Covel was never one of Dennis's Turtles. He just wrote about them, and hitched his wagon to the Trend Train book & lecture circuit.
You're leaving something important out. Richard Dennis' system no longer works. One needs to learn a system, but to learn trading at the same time.
One thing is certain, and Richard Dennis will tell you himself: The people that he and Eckhardt hired into the turtle trading program were all well above average intelligence and, in fact, they are quite a smart bunch.
Hello Dollardogs, It does matter if he systems no longer works. When it did works, he made a group of people Millionaires because he was a Millionaire Trader, which proves my point and his point. If you want to be a millionaire trader, work with a millionaire trader.
The turtles were fortunate in that they traded Dennis's money. Easy to be a millionaire trader when you strat with a million dollar account. Trend following still works!!!!
This place is so odd. Doubt you'll disagree. People will argue semantics here til the cows come home, but ask a specific TA question and you get snark and crickets.
