This episode of Talking Trading features a very special in depth interview with Market Wizard herself Linda Raschke. Effervescent, vivacious and open about her trading Linda shares the key programs which make her money in the markets and made her a legend. She talks about her trading routine, why her horse is called Ritchie Rich, and why she had always had a love hate relationship with the market. Honest, up front and gorgeously bubbly hear why Linda is a Market Wizard and how she really did trade during labour. Linda RaschkeLinda finishes every trading day riding her horse RITCHIE RICH.It is the last part of her daily trading routine, which she says is 90% of her success. She believes ORGANISATION is the number 1 skill in running a successful trading program and everything in Linda’s system has to be on autopilot.Linda has been in a LOVE-HATE relationship with the market for over 30 years. During those 30 years her trading programs have stayed exactly the same and she shares openly about the 4 key programs, which make her money in the markets.Linda says ‘You need to learn to do one thing and do it well and specialize in it. Do not try and trade too many markets and do too many things.’She had to learn all the lessons the hard way. From blowing out her account at age 22 and going into debt 3 months into her career her advice is that people need ENDURANCE to stick it out on the learning curve. ‘Trading is definitely a patience game.’ Linda herself is still learning about trading and loves that it gives her a PhD on the world even if it has taken 10 years off her life in stress.The thing that Linda thinks she does best is SINGLE-MINDEDNESS. And it is true she traded during labor, rolling over a futures contract to her broker on the phone.Her advice to new traders, you have to have thick enough skin and be able to pull yourself up by the bootstraps.Come and enjoy and adore Linda Raschke and her openness about her market life.

Turning JapaneseHear Chris Tate’s amusing impressions of Tokyo and why he isn’t turning Japanese… just yet. Japan : A country of contrast with the hypermodern and the very old, a place where hotel staff fall like ninja’s from the roof, where girls in little black dresses mingle with women wearing kimonos, a place where the food is bizarre and the streets are clean and crime free. Chris Tate and Louise Bedford visited Tokyo for the IFTA Conference and were entranced enthralled and fascinated by this city. In this episode hear Chris’ amusing impressions of the city and how traders from all around the world make the same stupid mistakes.Chris TateLouise Bedford and Chris Tate recently attended the International Federation of Technical Analysts Annual Conference in Tokyo, Japan.Chris wanted to find out if traders differ from around the world? The answer is NO. We all make the same stupid idiot mistakes trading regardless of what culture we are from.Hear Chris Tate’s entertaining impressions of the following in Tokyo:1.The technology - A hyperkinetic modern city with a staggering contrast between the hyper modern and the old.2. Why everything works in the city- Japan is a 'no buffoon zone'.3. The collective consciousness of Japan - Japan has zero crime. School children as young as 5 years old navigate their way through down town Tokyo.4. The Dress Code of The Japanese - Very modern with women wandering about in Little Black Dresses but at the same time, other girls wear traditional dress.5. Geishas - You simply stare at with your gob open.6. Body Language Japanese are small not in stature but in body language. Hotel staff would appear as if they were Ninja’s and they would drop from the ceiling.7. Cleanliness - A form of a religion. It flows through to their cities, which are staggering clean. There is a sense of internal and external purity.8. Food. Simply … bizarre.9 Suicide rates - Being Japanese comes at a cost and their suicide rate is very high. There are over 30 000 deaths every year. The ancient Samurai culture plays a part with warriors using hara-kiri as an honourable way to accept failure.10. Mount Fuji - Enormous and one of the best natural sights CT has ever seen.

Hold onto your seats boys - research shows female investors outperform men.In this episode of Talking Trading we speak to Meredith Jones, author of Women of the Street. She provides fresh data, stories and statistics from Wall Street on why women have a money management edge. From less ‘overconfidence’, over-trading and testosterone to a greater tolerance for market noise, Meredith shows that if someone is wearing Louboutins and not loafers in the markets then they may be the better investor. Meredith JonesMeredith Jones spent 17 years on Wall Street and interviewed 11 top performing female money managers for her book 'Women of The Street'.Chris Tate is a fan of Meredith and her evidence that women are better investors than men and that we would all be wealthier if we invested ‘like a girl’.Women’s outperformance of men can be drawn to specific characteristics:Less OVER confidence, which means women tend not to over trade.Greater conviction in their investments, which means women tend not sell into bad markets and helps them navigate volatile markets.Frequent reevaluation of their portfolio, which means women tend to recognize more effectively if they are the only person doing something in the market and they are either early or they are a lunatic.Out of the box thinking. Women often look for stocks that may not be as sexy or flashy but have good growth.Ability to match to expectation with actual results. There is a theory that says if there were more money managers in the markets then there would not be as much volatility and we would not have as many bubbles and busts.Meredith also walks us through the evolutionary reasons why men and women developed their different financial skill sets and why she advocates both male and female investment managers to ensure true diversification and maximize your money.
