#137 Chris Vermeulen: A Technical Approach to Trading & Investing
Join us for an engaging episode as we delve into the world of investing with Chris Vermeulen, a seasoned financial expert with over 25 years of experience. Chris challenges conventional investing wisdom by advocating an innovative approach he calls Asset Revesting. This method empowers investors to achieve higher returns, lower drawdowns, and even profit during bear markets by owning only assets that are rising in value.
Chris is the founder of TheTechnicalTraders.com, a platform offering Asset Revesting signals and education on technical analysis, position management, and risk management strategies. He is also the author of "Technical Trading Mastery" and his latest book, "Asset Revesting," which explores this groundbreaking investment style.
With his philosophy rooted in capital preservation over the traditional buy-and-hold strategy, Chris argues that diversification might be risky for mature investors. Instead, he suggests focusing on rising assets while avoiding those in decline, using technical analysis to spot and confirm trends. This approach can help investors achieve above-average returns while minimizing risk.
In today's episode, Chris shares his unique investment strategy, emphasizing how capital preservation should come first, followed by growth. With extensive experience advising over 20,000 self-directed traders, Chris provides insights into making money in all market conditions with reduced risk.
