EPI 115 - Momentum Trading: Weathering The Commodities Boom w/ Michael Oliver (Founder, Momentum Structural Analysis)

On episode 115, we had the pleasure to welcome back Michael Oliver. We dive into the global dynamics and how momentum is shifting in markets. We touch on subjects of politics, culture and economic trends/dynamics that are producing a shift in momentum. These shifts are important to understand where opportunities lay whether you are an investor or a trader. J. Michael Oliver entered the financial services industry in 1975 on the Futures side, joining E.F. Hutton’s International Commodity Division, headquartered in New York City's Battery Park. He studied under David Johnston, head of Hutton’s Commodity Division and Chairman of the COMEX.In the 1980s Mike began to develop his own momentum-based method of technical analysis. He learned early on that orthodox price chart technical analysis left many unanswered questions and too often deceived those who trusted in price chart breakouts, support/resistance, and so forth. In 1987 Mike technically anticipated and caught the Crash. It was then that he decided to develop his structural momentum tools into a full analytic methodology. In 1992 the Financial VP and head of Wachovia Bank's Trust Department asked Mike to provide soft dollar research to Wachovia. Within a year, Mike shifted from brokerage to full-time technical research. He is also the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism, a marriage of the concepts of Ayn Rand and Murray Rothbard, written in 1972 and published in Website: https://www.olivermsa.com/ Sign up to our Monthly Macro Newsletter - @ https://newgenmindset.substack.com/ Socials: Nic Tartaglia - @nictartaglia Dan Kozel - @dan_kozel93 www.newgenmindset.com
