Ep. 791: Nick Radge Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio
My guest today is Nick Radge. He began trading in 1985. During a stint working for an investment bank in Singapore Nick dedicated his evenings testing trading strategies; 2 hours a day for 18 months, a total of at least 750 hours. Nick's first book, Every-Day Traders, was written to identify the traits of successful traders. What do successful traders do that is different to other traders? In Adaptive Analysis for Australian Stocks, Nick shows his readers how to use price action to make the most of their winning trades and, often more importantly, to quickly recognize a losing trade and exit their position. In Unholy Grails–A New Road to Wealth, Radge outlines simple strategies to make money during uptrends and how to defend capital when the markets turn down. Nick is a Director at The Chartist, a stock market advisory service based in Queensland, Australia. The topic is trading.

Ep. 789: Scott Kupor Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio
My guest today is Scott Kupor, the managing partner of Andreessen Horowitz. He has overseen the firm's rapid growth to one hundred fifty employees and more than $7 billion in assets under management. The topic is his book Secrets of Sand Hill Road: Venture Capital and How to Get It. In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: What are venture capitalists saying about your startup behind closed doors? And what can you do to influence that conversation? Why most VCs typically invest in only one startup in a given business category? Why the skill you need most when raising venture capital is the ability to tell a compelling story? How to handle a "down round," when startups have to raise funds at a lower valuation than in the previous round? What to do when VCs get too entangled in the day-to-day operations of the business? Why you need to build relationships with potential acquirers long before you decide to sell?

Ep. 787: Matt Kepnes Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio
My guest today is Matt Kepnes, an American travel blogger. Kepnes was born in Boston. At 23, he had never left the United States but in 2005 he took a trip to Thailand. The trip convinced Kepnes to quit his job, finish his MBA, and begin traveling the world and blogging about his experiences. The topic is his book Ten Years a Nomad. In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: After meeting some travelers on a trip to Thailand in 2005, he realized that living life meant more than simply meeting society's traditional milestones, such as buying a car, paying a mortgage, and moving up the career ladder. Inspired by them, he set off for a year-long trip around the world before he started his career. He finally came home after ten years.

Ep. 785: Daniel Cable Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio
My guest today is Dan Cable, a Professor of Organizational Behavior at London Business School, and he believes he has the answer, or at least the tools, to equip people that want more out of their nine-to-five existence. His book Alive at Work shows many of the reasons for unhappiness at work. Organizations aren't encouraging us to explore and learn, so we often find ourselves only partially engaged in work. The book is filled with real-world examples and outlines how both employees and leaders can ignite the curiosity and passion that drives us to achieve. The topic is his book The Neuroscience of Helping Your People Love What They Do. In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: One of our fundamental desires as humans is our need to feel useful. The process of creating something or building a skill is at the center of a fulfilling life. This is problematic when you consider the world we live in today. So many jobs are characterized by menial tasks, endless meetings, and little tangible impact. How can we redefine the way we get things done to better reflect our basic needs?
