My guest today is Gil Morales. Morales got started in the early 90s, became a broker with Merrill Lynch in Beverly Hills, and moved on to work as a portfolio manager and ultimately chief market strategist at William O\'Neil\'s firm (of IBD and CANSLIM fame). Morales eventually moved onto his own investment advisory firm with Chris Kacher.

The topic is his book Trade Like an O\'Neil Disciple: How We Made 18,000% in the Stock Market.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

• Morales\' trend trading style
• Morales\' unexpected beginning
• Morales actually started as a cartoonist, and discusses his early influences
• Interesting stories working at the Beverly Hills branch of Merrill Lynch
• William O\'Neil\'s strategies, which ultimately provide the stepping stone for Morales\' strategies today
• How "you can\'t kiss all the babies", and how you have to keep from getting distracted with too many potential investments
• How O\'Neil\'s system is trend following at its core
• Fibonacci sequences, the moment of "now"
• Getting away from the rationale and the narrative of the trend
• Why losers average losers
