Ken,
The Tradestation Bundle 1 contents and demo videos starts with Part2; Should there be a Part 1?
I like your training videos with charts. They are interesting and logical and I believe I can learn them. The trade station bundle did confuse me. Seems like you need a programmer to use that software. Is it necessary to use trade station? I am using Think or Swim by TD Ameritrade, and Ninja Trader. At this point the simpler the better for my aptitude on the computer. I am reading “Ready,Fire,Aim”. I will be reading “100 Essays on Trading” next.
Look forward to learning ideas and systems to trade. Thank you, patrick m
Ken–I’m considering implementing a 300$K etf portfolio when conditions warrant. I plan to use your portfolio but volatility weighting to estabish position size. Any input you may have on this technique would be appreciated.
i have seen some research that finds a lot of goodness in the BMR approach, but then adding in volatility-adjusted position sizing among the top 3 candidates, for example; gives up some of the gains but certianly smoothes out the equity curve

Hi Ken, I’ve tried to get in touch with you via admin@tortoisecapital.com but am having some difficulty( tried the add with spaces as well). I’ve watched quite a few of you RLCO videos and I’m really interested in finding out more about your strategies. Came across your work via a link on a Van Tharp Newsletter. It would be really great to hear from you or your admin department. Kind regards. Ben
my email is longke@yahoo.com; send me a note and i can launch some material to you
Kindly send me some details to me too Ken. Have really liked the simplicity of the RLCO system, its ability to pick trends early and would love to learn the system in detail. My e-mail address is: sharmanup@gmail.com
Regards
Anup
