In search of the next great trade... | Kevin Muir

EP 138: In Search of the Next Great Trade-with The Macro Tourist, Kevin Muir
During the 90’s, Kevin Muir was a proprietary derivatives trader for RBC Dominion Securities. In 2000, Kevin branched out to begin trading independently, and since 2014, he’s been writing a daily blog, The Macro Tourist.
Kevin’s unique in the sense that he fits the bill of two largely different trading types; an intraday trader and a global macro trader. He also doesn’t specialize in one particular thing, or certainly not to the extent that many traders do…
Kevin can be quoted as saying, “I never know where I’m going to make money next year.” And that’s because he’s someone who’s continually seeking out the next great trade. In the past, Kevin’s great trades have come in the form of; risk arbitrage, mining Bitcoin, convertible bonds and day trading futures-amongst many other things!

Awesome! It is interesting to hear from a trader doing both macro and day trading and how he tries to balance this. The mention that trading a strategy tha fits your personality is definitely one of the main take aways I will put in my summary. Thank you Aaron!

Can you get back Rob the discovery trader guy for a second episode. I wanna know some more about his concept that trading entries are not all that important, but the risk model and the loot being the most important. I find his episode very compelling. Frankly groundbreaking as well. I would love to hear some more from that guy. Cheers.

The coin game with 3 coins each and guessing the amount of coins in total that Kevin talks about here is called 'spoof' in the U.K. Groups of us used to play it all of the time in the local pub. Cards and games like that probably helped to get me into trading...
