My guest today is Jerry Parker, an original Turtle, trained by Richard Dennis. However, since then he has very successfully run a managed money firm called Chesapeake Capital.

The topic is Trend Following.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

• Mean reversion trading
• What the definition of momentum trading is compared to trend following
• Why “good enough” is more rigorous than any metric
• How the intervention of the Fed has broken up trends and made volatility drop in markets
• How the idea of uncertainty and talking in probabilities makes people uncomfortable
• The difference between managed futures and trend following
• Why buy and hold is predicated on trust of the Fed
• Why trend followers don’t look to “beat” the market
