In Episode 222 of The Traders Podcast, your host Rob Booker muses about Google’s stock and Google X’s “moon shot” projects. Rob wonders whether it’s appropriate for Google to be investing so much money into projects that will likely be unsuccessful.

For Episode 221 of The Traders Podcast, your host Rob Booker catches up with one of our favorite guests, the great Raghee Horner of Trade Forex Futures.com. First, Rob and Raghee talk about Timothy Ferriss’s concept of “The Four-Hour Work Week” and the feasibility of outsourcing one’s own life. That leads to a discussion of the merits and possibilities of trading for only one hour each day. Next Rob talks about the solitude that can come from being a trader, which he personally appreciates. Then we hear a tired, “Dark Rob” (as Raghee terms him) share some hilarious thoughts about how he doesn’t want to shoulder other people’s drama or personal tragedies anymore. Rob and Raghee agree that one must choose the people in life that one is willing to ride the roller coaster with, and similarly, one must pick the financial instruments with which one is willing to get involved. Raghee defines “tomato can currencies” and explains why these are important to her trading. All of this and so much more in Episode 221 of The Traders Podcast. Thanks for listening!

In this episode of The Traders Podcast, your host Rob Booker responds to a tweet he received from someone who said he’d love to be a long-term trader, but his scalper mentality doesn’t work well with long-term trades. So, as one might expect, Rob launches into all the possible definitions of “scalping” and a little history on the word’s unpleasant origins. Then Rob explores scalping in the trading sense and examines a few reasons why this sort of scalping can be problematic (though, admittedly, not nearly as problematic as the brutal war-time practice). Nevertheless, Rob also briefly addresses what constitutes effective short-term trading and promises a future episode on this topic. Tune in and enjoy, and thanks for listening to The Traders Podcast.

Well, 2014 is already six days under way, and we’re grateful that you’re still listening to The Traders Podcast.

He talks about having a daily or weekly “watch list” and a standard, of sorts, for trading. Rob also talks about the benefits of making up your mind ahead of time (as opposed to having to make crucial decisions while in the heat of the moment).
