The book Trend Following Mindset: The Genius of Legendary Trader Tom Basso by Michael Covel (Amazon,) is not really about trend following at all. It doesn’t give away any techniques or road maps.
There was one outline of a strategy in the book that we put to test and nothing much shook out of it (summary).
It has some general ideas about investing, risk management and the nature of markets that a new investor might find useful.
