It a good background read, even if very frustrating because the author never really gets to meat and potatoes of how to actually trend trade. I would have liked to see a large range of examples of entries and exits using a trend following approach; like what Dr. Elder's book 'Entries and Exits' does. This book focuses on persuading the doubters and 'buy and hold' readers that trend following is a better approach. It is not for those of us who want to actually trade in that way. Disappointing that the author either does not have the detailed experience or has deliberately held back this information. There is a very short piece in one of the appendices, showing an example of a trend following strategy, but why only one and why so brief? Without those few pages near the end, the book would have been largely a waste of my time, except that it has raised my awareness of and curiosity about trend following.

I wasted time and money on both of Covell's books. He doesn't give up the good stuff in either, you have to buy his Trend Following course for that.You will not "learn to make millions in Up or Down Markets". I don't understand the mass of positive reviews for this book. It tells the story about Richard Dennis and the Turtles but not their methods, that will cost you $1,200.I made a mistake buying this book, don't you repeat it.
Just started Curtis Faith's book from which I am already getting more facts.

I bought and read this book because I am interested in profiting from trend following, but all this book says is basically that trend following works, which is pretty obvious to anyone who can read charts. All he does is bombard us with loads of charts and endless stories about alleged trend followers. It would have been better to analyse a particular trading system.
I give it one star because he takes 400 pages to say something that could have been said in one page.
Don't waste your money on this book.
