SBMore like this please. Excellently placed questions!
-
MMI expected a deeper conversation than a description of Dr. Gio's achievements. I think it would be great to conduct another interview that will describe how exactly he coached the teams, what techniques he used, how exactly he applied the knowledge gained in psychology in coaching, etc. Nevertheless, I liked the interview, thank you for efforts!
-
MYPlease have Dr. Valiante back on RV to interview high performance traders and investors.
-
CCGreat idea to have Gio interview invested
-
mlExcellent piece. Please have the good Dr. back regularly - these interviews are highly valuable for those willing to listen.
-
LBPlease bring Dr. Goo back!

VSWhilst I enjoyed the interview, I still don't understand how exactly Dr. Valiante is able to get his sporting clients to win 60 titles and get underperforming PM's back in the green. I appreciate there's only so much he can give away but isn't the point of having him on to get a sneak peak behind the scenes of what an accomplished psychologist does to achieve results? It was a good watch and a good job by Max.

SMI was also a swim teacher! This man speaks to me - maybe should I give trading a break and get into performance coaching LOL
-
SGthanks RV for providing a deeper dive with Dr Gio
-
BCSo you have someone with no market experience interviewing someone with no market experience. They should have kept their comments focused on the psychology of individual investors and not on macro analysis of market psychology (which neither has experience with).

MAVery interesting. Would love to see Dr. Gio on RV as an interviewer. Also more interviews from Max - he was great (fast and pointed questions)!
-
VKThis was cool
-
SMPlease have Gio interview Keith at Hedgeye
-
JSWould love to see Dr. Gio interview traders.
-
MHSounds like you should be teaching teachers to actually teach!

JLI'm interested to see an interview or two where Dr. Valiante talks psychology w/ experienced PMs and traders. Focusing esp. on how they manage the inner psychological impact of both large successes (with the attention & expectation that often come with that,) and major mistakes and bad calls. ---- WRT this interview, one key divergence for individual investors -- whether retail-scale investors ( < $5M personal AUM) or managing much larger (but still personally-owned) amounts of capital – the competitive 'scoreboard' effect is typically a much smaller fraction of the overall psychological conditions of trading. I.e. one's competition is mainly with oneself. Compared to pros who are managing not only others' money but often complex and at times burdensome professional relationships with peers, longer-term reputation creation & preservation, etc., the individual investor may (temperament permitting) have a greater distance from the expectations inherent in public performance psychology, and quite a bit more flexibility in adapting to market conditions. Personal anecdote to illustrate, around Dec. 2019 I went long the XOP ETF -- a modest position, nothing huge -- theorizing that oil was locally oversold due to the US shale glut. This was pre-coronavirus, & I expected on a 6-12 month horizon that the financial collapse of the US shale sector would eventually push oil prices up again. Coronavirus impact on oil demand has knocked that thesis askew and the trade is down ~30%. Depending on how C-virus continues to play out it may end up 40, 50% down or more over the coming year. If I was a professional MM I might be forced to realize that loss at some point this year, due to portfolio strategy, company policy, or other considerations. As a personal investor I can afford to re-frame the trade entirely and opt to stick the trade in the long-term basket (3 to 5 years,) reasonably confident that the XOP ETF isn't going to go to zero and eventually supply/demand conditions will conspire to give me a more-reasonable exit point, or maybe even a profit.

PGExcellent interview!! So relatable! Please bring him back as an interviewer.

JWHats off to you Max. This interview is a massive improvement to me from your last, in-fact it’s perfect. Well thought out and deep questions , digging for information constantly; time for the DR to respond. Flawless. But I did read one of your previous comment in which you mentioned the subject of that interview was one which you had personal experience with and had a lot to offer so a suggestion I for one would definitely be massively interested in. You and your real vision colleagues interviewing each other ? Food for thought. But well done Max, more of the same.
-
BSyes, I'd love having Gio conducting interviews for RV
