Ep. 338: K.D. Angle Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

My guest today is K.D. Angle. Angle began trading the futures markets in 1979 and developed his first rules-based trading strategy in 1984. In 1985 he created a newsletter called “The Timing Device” that specialized in making specific trade recommendations in the futures markets. After 1995, Angle retired the newsletter and went into asset management on a full time basis while investing the majority of his time and resources into researching and developing rules-based strategies.

The topic is trading the futures market.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

• Angle’s father’s history, who turned a two million dollar gold investment into a hundred million in just six months, and the lessons learned
• Whether there was an early trend trading influence beyond looking at Angle’s father’s career; Angle’s experience with Dunn Capital
• Freedom of location
• 100% rule-based and systematic trading vs. adding discretionary elements to your system
• Why the client part of the business is so important
