This is the true story behind Wall Street legend Richard Dennis, his disciples, the Turtles, and the trading techniques that made them millionaires.

What happens when ordinary people are taught a system to make extraordinary money? Richard Dennis made a fortune on Wall Street by investing according to a few simple rules. Convinced that great trading was a skill that could be taught to anyone, he made a bet with his partner and ran a classified ad in the Wall Street Journal looking for novices to train. His recruits, later known as the Turtles, had anything but traditional Wall Street backgrounds; they included a professional blackjack player, a pianist, and a fantasy game designer. For two weeks, Dennis taught them his investment rules and philosophy, and set them loose to start trading, each with a million dollars of his money. By the time the experiment ended, Dennis had made a hundred million dollars from his Turtles and created one killer Wall Street legend.

In The Complete Turtle Trader, Michael W. Covel, bestselling author of Trend Following and managing editor of TurtleTrader.com, the leading website on the Turtles, tells their riveting story with the first ever on the record interviews with individual Turtles. He describes how Dennis interviewed and selected his students, details their education and experiences while working for him, and breaks down the Turtle system and rules in full. He reveals how they made astounding fortunes, and follows their lives from the original experiment to the present day. Some have grown even wealthier than ever, and include some of today's top hedge fund managers. Equally important are those who passed along their approach to a second generation of Turtles, proving that the Turtles' system truly is reproducible, and that anyone with the discipline and the desire to succeed can do as well as—or even better than—Wall Street's top hedge fund wizards.

In an era full of slapdash investing advice and promises of hot stock tips for "the next big thing," as popularized by pundits like Jim Cramer of Mad Money, the easy-to-follow objective rules of the TurtleTrader stand out as a sound guide for truly making the most out of your money. These rules worked—and still work today—for the Turtles, and any other investor with the desire and commitment to learn from one of the greatest investing stories of all time.

Review

“Tells the ‘real stories’ rather than just the glossy good bits—a thoroughly good read.” (Your Trading Edge)

“This warmly written book brilliantly captures the formation and evolution of the legendary Turtle investment program. It is loaded with wonderful anecdotal insights plus lessons on trading, risk, and life we should all follow. It should be on any novice or seasoned trader’s bookshelf alike. A must read!” (Michael Shannon, Original Turtle)

This cannot be original because all the pages are coming out. The same quality binding which you can expect from a 50 rs books sold at intersections. All the pages are coming clean out.

This book is entertaining (and as a side note, it has made me money in the cryptocurrency market)

23 June 2016 - Published on Amazon.com

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is for non-traders. You don't need to have any technical knowledge of trading to understand it and find it highly entertaining and informative.

I recommend it, If anything, to learn about Richard Dennis and his reality TV style antics in the 80s futures markets.

He basically put a craigslist ad up saying that anyone could apply to trade with his system of rules, no experience required, and he’d give them all 1 million dollars of his money to trade with.

The majority of the people had no trading experience, they knew nothing about the markets they were trading in nor how to trade … but they were very successful, some of them are still trading today with their own billion dollar funds.

While reading the book in 2013, it just so happened to be around when bitcoin popped. I started using his rules to trade altcoins and I made a bunch of money following his strategy laid out in the book!

I've actually been using this book as a guideline to trade cryptocurrencies since then on and off, and I've netted well over 6 figures trading the turtle trading method.

The author, Michael Covel has a great podcast as well. Don't bother with any of Covel's other books - Trend Following, Trend Commandments, etc are just rehashes of the same story. There's no solid strategy in any of his other books. THIS is the one you want to get.

If you don't get this book you should at least subscribe to his podcast, in fact, in Covel's other audiobooks, he includes about 5 hours of his podcast episodes at the end ... just skip buying the other books and listen to the podcast episodes with the Tom Basso and other traders.

Turtle Trading is legit

21 October 2016 - Published on Amazon.com

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

If you want to trade futures and you need somewhere to start, this system will lay the groundwork to get you going. There are elements to a system like this you have to figure out on your own (paper trade and back test a lot). Your trading platform should be able to calculate all entries, stops, etc. The issue you will find here is capital. If you dont have a hundred grand or more laying around for trading, you will need to be wise about what you are doing as your risk as a percentage of you account may be much higher than what you read, and you will need to be clever about what contracts you look at (outside the scope of this book). You also have to rethink the add ons if you are using limited capital. The real test is to see if you can follow the rules and do what the system says when you think you are smarter than it. Rest of the book is worth reading, but is just backstory. If you have read any of Covel's other books, they pretty much read the same. Just remember, screwing up a futures trade that you are not properly set up in can wipe you out. Not just your trading account, but everything you own. This is not trading stocks. Make sure you understand the risk of futures trading prior to starting. You can always play around on Nadex for fixed-risk derivatives trading.

One of my favorite trading books.

29 April 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

One of my favorite trading books.

I think the main thing I learned from this book is discipline. You need to be quite disciplined and never let your

emotion get on the way. Cold calculated trades brings profits.

One thing that I want to warn is that gaining discipline is extremely hard. Yes, it can be done but it is quite challenging and it takes time.

Also, trading is not as simple. Remember that many gory details of trading is left out in the book.

Overall, an excellent book that every trader should read :D

An Amazing Story

11 January 2014 - Published on Amazon.com

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The Complete Turtle Trader is the amazing story of Rich Dinnis and his Turtle experiment. I won't go into too much detail about the story itself, but I would like to mention a few things that were huge takeaways for me personally.

1. Dennis' view on money. Basically Dennis thought of money like points in a video game. This allowed him to make the right decisions with no emotion involved.

2. Being consistent and persistent. Dennis had the self-discipline to follow his trading method no matter what. 8 losing trades in a row? Doesn't matter. Put the 9th trade on.

3. The importance of good risk management. Dinnis' system has a way to measure the amount of risk he should take on each of his trades. A way that would change for each trade based on the amount of capital that is in his account at that particular moment.

I highly recommend this book. And if you are a trend following trader then this is a MUST HAVE for your library. The story alone is worth the price, but by far the two most valuable chapters in this book are The Philosophy and The Rules.

A solid explanation of the system PLUS great stories

9 September 2015 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

I have been studying the turtle trader system the last few weeks, devouring everything I could get my hands on regarding the subject. Mike's book is a great example of explaining the system plus adding all the background stories. I have taken quite a few notes and I look forward to implementing the ideas, especially on the short side. Great work to the author and a very entertaining and educational read.
