    2024/11/05

    Join us for an engaging episode as we delve into the world of investing with Chris Vermeulen, a seasoned financial expert with over 25 years of experience. Chris challenges conventional investing wisdom by advocating an innovative approach he calls Asset Revesting. This method empowers investors to achieve higher returns, lower drawdowns, and even profit during bear markets by owning only assets that are rising in value.

He is also the author of "Technical Trading Mastery" and his latest book, "Asset Revesting," which explores this groundbreaking investment style.

    With his philosophy rooted in capital preservation over the traditional buy-and-hold strategy, Chris argues that diversification might be risky for mature investors. Instead, he suggests focusing on rising assets while avoiding those in decline, using technical analysis to spot and confirm trends. This approach can help investors achieve above-average returns while minimizing risk.

    In today's episode, Chris shares his unique investment strategy, emphasizing how capital preservation should come first, followed by growth. With extensive experience advising over 20,000 self-directed traders, Chris provides insights into making money in all market conditions with reduced risk.

  • #134 Pradeep Bonde (StockBee): Deep Trader Wisdom
    2024/09/03

    In this week's episode of the AlphaMind Podcast, we welcome Pradeep Bonde of StockBee, a highly regarded trader in the retail trading community. Pradeep entered the trading world later in his career after a successful tenure as the head of marketing for DHL and FedEx in India. His passion for trading was ignited when he spent time alongside a colleague who actively traded the markets. Captivated by his colleague’s approach, Pradeep embarked on a love affair with trading, but the journey to success was anything but smooth.

    In the early stages of his trading career, Pradeep experienced the classic rollercoaster ride that many new traders face, marked by significant wins followed by devastating losses. Although he had a strong appetite for risk, the emotional toll of this tumultuous trading style began to negatively impact his mental well-being. Recognizing the need for a change, Pradeep drew on his robust background in business and logistics to restructure his trading approach. He developed favoured setups and adopted a strategy of taking partial profits, and hitting singles, which involves compounding multiple small wins.

    In this insightful episode, Pradeep shares his journey and the wisdom he’s gained along the way. He discusses the classic mistakes that many traders make, such as failing to establish a clear trading process and falling victim to the ‘island mentality’ whereby they focus on getting rich quickly with dreams of an island home and luxury cars, instead of mastering the more mundane yet essential art of consistently making money.

    Join us for this enlightening discussion filled with valuable lessons from Pradeep Bonde, as he offers practical advice to help traders navigate their own journeys in the ever-evolving trading landscape.

  • #133: The Power of Performance Coaching for Traders with Kim Ann Curtin (AKA The Wall Street Coach)
    2024/08/14

    Join us for an enlightening episode of the AlphaMind Podcast, where we delve into the transformative world of performance coaching for traders. Hosted by AlphaMind's own Randall and Steven Goldstein, this engaging discussion features Kim Ann Curtin, famously known as The Wall Street Coach.

    In this dynamic conversation, we explore how performance coaching serves as a vital catalyst for traders, empowering them to unlock substantial improvements in their trading performance. Kim-Ann shares with us the critical role of coaching in enhancing self-awareness and facilitating personal discovery, helping traders achieve their fullest potential while navigating the complexities of the financial markets.

    We'll also confront a pressing issue—the hesitation many traders and trading firms feel when it comes to seeking coaching and performance enhancement. As we compare this mindset to the culture in other high-performance arenas, particularly elite sports, we highlight a stark contrast. In sports, engaging with coaches is the norm, while many in trading continue to struggle with the belief that they must not seek additional help.

    This episode further examines the self-sabotaging attitudes that often prevail, especially among men, who may dismiss the idea of asking for help. Despite compelling evidence from research showing the transformative impact and impressive return on investment of performance coaching—the median ROI is around 700%, though in almost a fifth of cases it was around 5000%*—the trading industry has yet to foster a robust culture of continuous improvement.

    Discover invaluable insights and perspectives that challenge the status quo and encourage both traders and firms to embrace performance coaching as a powerful avenue for growth and success. Tune in now to learn how investing in coaching can lead to profound and transformative outcomes!

  • #131: Journaling Secrets for Trader Success: Inside Edgewonk with Tradeciety
    2024/06/22

    To be a great trader, you have to be a great learner as well as a continual learner. This includes learning about yourself, who you are, what you do, and how you do it. However, if we don't have feedback systems that allow us to see ourselves and our actions more objectively, we will always view ourselves through the lens of our biases and ego. This is why using a journaling tool is so valuable.

    In this compelling episode, we welcome back the duo behind Tradeciety and the brilliant online trader journaling tool, Edgewonk: Rolf Schlotmann and Moritz Czubatinski. These two trader journaling experts know all about the challenges and benefits of trader journaling, including the personal challenges that arises in committing to an activity that many acknowledge as incredibly beneficial but which they too often neglect. This neglect is akin to an athlete shying away from their full training routines, which eventually sees them losing out to those athletes who do fully embrace their full training routines.

    This episode delves deep into the art of journaling and its capacity to enhance peak performance. Rolf and Moritz also provide valuable insights into the evolution of Edgewonk, a tool that has facilitated the creation of nearly 60,000 individual trading journals. They share how traders leverage their cutting-edge platform and provide a glimpse into the forthcoming enhancements planned for Edgewonk.

    We are thrilled to extend an exclusive offer to AlphaMind listeners: a $20 discount on Edgewonk by using the voucher code "alphamind20" during checkout.
