I first read Turtle Traders 5 years ago. It remains one of my favorite books along with Memoirs of A Stock Operator. Thank you for sharing Mr Parker and thank you to the channel for interviewing.

[@te4915]

I love listening to Jerrys wisdom. This is a great interview. Thanks

[@ExcessReturns]

Grounded, humble, unmoved by volatility. Ever youthful

[@HepCatJack]

The channel "Top Traders Unplugged" that Jerry Parker mentioned in the interview has many interviews of former Turtle traders. I listen to them about 2 years ago. There was a book mentioned: "The Complete TurtleTrader: How 23 Novice Investors Became Overnight Millionaires" - Michael W. Covel. This book came out in Feb. 2009. There is also a 6 years old interview of Jerry Parker on the "Chat with Traders" channel.

Which interviews on these channels would you please recommend?

[@61757]

Jerry has longevity and patience others lack

[@ST_TrendTrader]

I've listened to all of Jerry Parker's interviews- this is honestly the best one I've ever heard. Really great 'to the point' questions combined with clear, and concise answers- Really Good Job! Very enjoyable ... Is Petey litter trained.............?

[@ExcessReturns]

Thank you very much @YesTrader2. Very nice to hear positive comments like these!

[@HepCatJack]

For speculation in things like Gold / Silver / Oil or Crypto ETFS where a value investor would have no intrinsic value to get at trend following makes sense as a way to navigate these securities. I would be curious to find out if they consider Trend following to be different from Momentum investing or not and if so, if they also use what they call Momentum strategies in parallel.

Boxing is good analogy

[@61757]

In these podcasts, Jerry show your track record chart since the beginning, like early 1990s

Have the cake AND eat it - monetize countertrend while remaining in core trend by hedging!

[@61757]

Wow now Howard is there on the other shoulder

[@61757]

That's Liz Cheval on your shoulder, come back to speak on the podcast. Animals are our ancestors. Would anyone help publish my video?

[@61757]

I want to publish my view but Bill had me sign an NDA in 1992

[@peterp4753]

I don't understand, how can anyone not to follow the rules after they got $1 million to trade with from the man who teaches you the rules?

[@61757]

Rich got very little in return for his sacrificing; Bill goaded him into giving away the business/debate/ego/mimetic crisis
