What does it really mean to follow a trading system?
In Episode 7 of Trend & Turtle, Ben Lichtenstein and original Turtle trader Jerry Parker dig into the discipline behind systematic trend following — taking every trade, accepting small losses, letting profits run, and resisting the temptation to override the rules.
Jerry explains why traders should “love their losses,” why more risk-management rules aren’t always better, and why trading smaller can sometimes be the answer. They also discuss diversification across hundreds of markets, why highly correlated markets can still produce very different outlier trends, and why trying to predict which markets will trend can be a mistake.
Ben also walks through several trades and the lessons they’re providing as he puts the system into practice.
