Michael Covel has dedicated three books on the legendary turtle traders group and their so-called “trend following” trading strategy. This article is my personal view of his work, the lessons I personally took from them, as well as my opinion on them.

This article should not be viewed as a replacement for the book but rather as an introduction or as a side guide. Everybody learns and takes away different things from a book from another.
