 ~ Ed Seykota

"Economists have correctly predicted nine of the last five recessions."

~ Paul Sameulson

 

"Trend following is an exercise in observing and responding to the ever-present moment of now."

"When a position is moving in the direction of your trade, do the opposite of fear; but when a position is moving against the direction of your trade, do the opposite of hope."
