Listen "SI77: Trading through the quickest 10% correction in stock market history"
Episode Synopsis
After the quickest 10% correction straight from an all-time-high in stock market history last week, we discuss how human emotions & behaviours played their part, the threat of the coronavirus and its effect on world economies, why a week is too short a time to judge if CTAs are providing ‘crisis alpha’, and why short-term systems should have performed really well during the selloff. Questions we cover include: How do you define ‘signal strength’? Do you use stop-losses, and if so, how? Can you apply Trend Following systems to micro futures contracts?-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT’s TRUE ? – most CIO’s read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to [email protected] please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 – Intro01:20 – Macro recap from Niels03:00 – Weekly review of performance14:13 – Top Tweets39:45 – Brian; Question 1: Have any of your guests mentioned the use of different rules for different markets?44:25 – Jacob; Question 2: What are the criteria for deciding to change your rules?51:29 – Adrian; Question 3: How do you define signal strength?55:46 – Jonathan; Question 4: If you use stop-losses, how do you use them?01:02:51 – Craig; Question 5: How regularly should you communicate with your clients?01:08:20 – Russ; Question 6: Can I apply a trend following trading system to micro futures contracts?01:11:22 – Benchmark performance updateCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In...
