COMPLETE TURTLETRADER Paperback

"The Complete TurtleTrader: How 23 Novice Investors Became Overnight Millionaires" by Michael W. Covel is the definitive true story behind Wall Street legend Richard Dennis and his extraordinary experiment. In the 1980s, Dennis, a highly successful commodities trader, made a bet with his partner that trading was a skill that could be taught, not an innate talent. He placed an advertisement seeking novices to train in his proprietary trading system, and from thousands of applicants, selected a diverse group, known as the "Turtles." This book, featuring the first-ever on-the-record interviews with these individuals, reveals how Dennis taught them his rules and philosophy over two intensive weeks, then provided them with his own money to trade. By the experiment's conclusion, the Turtles had collectively earned over $100 million for Dennis, proving that ordinary people, with the right system and discipline, could achieve extraordinary success in the financial markets. Covel breaks down the Turtle system in full, detailing their experiences and showing how their timeless principles continue to be relevant for any investor today.
