My guest today is James Rohrbach. Rohrbach has been trading for 40 years, created his RIX index, and runs an educational service at Investment-Models.com. While he calls himself a "market timer", he\'s a trend follower.

The topic is Trend Following.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Why buy and hold is dead, and the psychology behind people desperately clinging onto it
  • Why - even when buy and hold supplies a winning outcome - it still might not be a good strategy
  • Using a 15/30 day crossover as a quick and simple system
  • Why Rohrbach doesn\'t short
  • Making sure your feelings don\'t overrule your process
