Great show. Thank you

Thank you! That was an extremely interesting video. I really like how you build and manage your risk with the concept of diversification/correlations. I am looking forward to your next video and the release of your application/tool. Would it be possible for you to provide some links or reading material to help us better understand these concepts? Again thanks for taking the time to provide this valuable information.

I don't have it written up yet but I am getting very close to being able to provide some free software that will help introduce these techniques.

Fascinating - and thank you for sharing! Can you recommend any books that would provide the background/theory to your method of portfolio management? Is there something that talks about these concepts and provides definitions to these terms that I see on your portfolio screens? I am afraid I don't exactly know what they mean or how they are calculated...... Would be very helpful. Also, could you do a video explaining your spreadsheet...and what each column represents? It seems like you have 4 columns for each time period wihtin the trend section....and I don't know what that refers to?? Also, what are the actual numbers displayed in the columns? I understand the green / red coloring for bullish/bearish trend and cycle projections but thats about the only thing I understand....perhaps you could make a reference video on this, and then provide the links in the UA-cam heading section for reference. I will continue to follow and look forward to learning! I'm thrilled you choose 2H timeframe bc that's my preferred timeframe for futures too!!

The basic ideas on risk management come from Ken Grant's "Trading Risk." Meanwhile, I've been working on an extremely simplified version of Grant's work. I'll be sharing more here on my weekly UA-cam show so stay tuned.
