Market Wizards 4 coming soon!

Alpha Masters is good but written in a completely different style. The author basically summarizes the subject's interviews instead of doing Q and A, and after being used to the Market Wizards style, it reads kind of weirdly.

 

Interview with Schwager: http://trendfollowing.libsyn.com/we...-trend-following-manifesto-with-michael-covel

 

Please be sure to read the part that begins at the bottom of page 9 and continues on page 10.

 

I love reading the Amazon reviews when a marketer publishes a book, talk about extremes.

Yuu always get loads of too-good-to-be-true "this is the BESTEST EVER Book on trading you'll EVER read", total cringeworthy crap like that.

Then, the one star ones get you very close to the truth. Always hilarious

 

Thanks for following. A listen.

 

Guess Edward Thorp should be the most interesting

 

Going to try and get some face time with him.

 

Very good read. As good as the previous books with plenty of actionable ideas.

 

So from what im understanding, its a good book and worth getting. Looks like i will have to pick it up then..

 

Best of luck, and if you do manage to interview him for one of your podcasts, I'd like to request you to pick his brain regarding the specifics of his views on trend following which he did mildly dabble into in Schwager's new book. Woodriff would also make an exceedingly interesting interview for your podcast, even though he isn't a pure long term trend follower, he does combine short term "persistence" trading with short term "mean reversion" in his program, leading to a "trend neutral" strategy.
