Hello everyone,

In February of this year just as the Market Correction was really taking hold, I did an interview with Matt Petralia about his methods and how to avoid large drawdowns.

He gave an excellent presentation covering his process which resonated with many viewers regarding how simple but effective it was.

His presentation begins around 4 minutes into the video although I would highly recommend you check out the full interview.

Matt’s risk management section especially I think is well worth watching and taking notes from.

Enjoy! Below are the timestamps from the video so you can jump right to the section you would like to see.

Cheers,

Richard
