The Traders Podcast with Rob Booker

Welcome to The Traders Podcast, Episode 262. In this show your host Rob Booker talks about the notion of traders being their own worst enemies. Rob was recently asked how to know if his trading system is simply going through a temporary rough period versus when it’s time to call it quits on that system. Rob also spends some time discussing James Altucher as an example of a person with a quiet, understated confidence about his own abilities. Rob also invites any listeners who live in Paris, France, to e-mail or leave a comment, that he might meet you this week. Thanks for listening.

The Traders Podcast with Rob Booker

Episode 259 is a rather unusual Traders Podcast, because your host Rob Booker and the producer Jason Pyles share some personal anecdotes concerning what they learned during their two years of missionary service in Italy and Tucson, Arizona, respectively. Rob says that a lot of what he knows about being a good trader comes from lessons he’s learned while knocking on people’s doors in Italy. For instance, Rob talks about how all the rejection he faced as a missionary informs his trading career. All of this and more in Episode 259 of The Traders Podcast. Join us! And thanks for listening.

The Traders Podcast with Rob Booker

In Episode 258, your host Rob Booker begins by discussing a New York Times article about Justin Zormelo, a private adviser in advanced analytics for NBA players. Rob uses this as a topical springboard to address having too much information versus having too little (for trading). Next Rob talks about Google’s self-driving cars, which leads to some brief thoughts about trading robots that have no human intervention.

Next we move in to our listener feedback, with an e-mail from Calvin who asks if it’s illegal to trade with an off-shore broker. Then Scott asks about brokers, the MT4 Platform and the Asian Session. Scott also asks Jason if he has started trading yet, and he inquires whether Rob and Jason are religious, which leads to an inevitable discussion about whether God helps traders! You don’t want to miss this one! Thanks for listening to The Traders Podcast.
