- EP 163: An evening with veteran trader, John “Rambo” Moulton [LIVE]
This special episode of Chat With Traders was recorded in June 2018, in front of a live audience in Sydney. It’s a conversation I had with John Moulton, though he’s best known as Rambo.
John’s a serious trader, and for good reason, he’s considered to be somewhat of a legend trader in Australia…
In short, John left the Chicago trading pits in the 80’s, bound for the Sydney Futures Exchange. During the years that followed, he became a VERY large spread trader of Government Bonds and Bank Bills-he was responsible for a major share of the trading volume done each day.
Now forty years on, since placing his first trade, John is still an active market participant-trading from a coastal location in Queensland, Australia. So, press play and listen in to our conversation, as John reflects on the things which matter most for achieving success and longevity as a trader.
With great honor, I present to you John Moulton (aka Rambo!)
I grew up with John in Chicago, watched him go from the midam to the CBOT gain room then over to the CME. He has always been a great guy and one of the best traders I have ever meet and I ran the largest S&P desk in the world on the CME floor. If you see Rambo tell him Danny Riley says hello.
He is a tosser
@@annajones9701 tosser?
@@DaniilDimitrov , It's a UK slang word for being a jerk.
@@duanejackson6718 thanks
Hi Danny, why no new video on your channel? Last videos are like 10 years old.
"I never dwell on what I've done. Ever!" - Rambo Moulton
He said any zen Buddhist here is gonna make a FORTUNE in trading. People laughed at it but I was dead serious. He is absolutely correct.
This is one of the best day trading teachings of all time. Because it deals with the deeper matters of the trader's psyche, which matters more than any other aspect of it. Rambo hinted that these habits and thinking patterns and "settings" of the heart apply to all life. First. Before you ever make it to the screen. I will apply that as much as I can!
Couldn’t agree with you more. Focus on the here and now don’t dwell on the past and don’t dream into the future. What matters is what’s happening in front of you at that second. It’s insanely good advice but as a trader myself EXTREMELY difficult to put into motion 😂 🧘♂️
John is not only a trader, but a wise man. Wish there were more interviews of him ❤
"Know who you are; know your game,; play within yourself"...this is Trading.
Years ago I saw Bulls and Bears and after I'd be searching for information on this man once a month on average. What a nice surprise it was years later I saw he was scheduled for an event. I waited months for it to drop. Bulls and Bears was great because of him - the highs and lows of trading with a top trader. This guy's probably got so much more to tell... please have him back!!
An excellent interview. Thank you John, and especially you Aaron, for brining these to us!
I've spent time with Rambo watching him trade. He is the real deal, a great, fun, generous and humble guy. Very fortunate to count him as a friend
This is now one of my favorite chats:) Love it! Great interview Aaron!
I remember listening to this in 2019 when I first entered markets. 4 years later I actually gather the value in his message
Yeah, it's crazy listening back to interviews you knew were valuable but you didn't quite have background knowledge to grasp, happens to me a lot... and it also gets easier to spot guys that might not know that much but talk a big game
Thank you once again Mr. Fifield for a wonderful look into the wisdom of a trader.
so blessed to have him here on our shores. Thx Aaron for digging him out and cheers Rambo for sharing. #thumbsup
losing money is the most important part of trading, finally someone adressing that properly, i keep praising this part almost every day in the chat .. it's easy to figure out based on peoples reactions if they will make it or not in this game.
great stuff
How did I know I'd find you in this comment section Swing?!
John is an amazing character - great to listen to, very entertaining and knowledgeable.
Aaron you handle these interviews quite well. Much appreciate the content you have been bringing over the years.
Intriguing .. going to watch it again .. hope they can do another one .. great work Aaron.
Wow what a great guy and a legend! Took so much out of this.
So amazing to see video on this channel. I listened to the audio of this several times. It's so great to see the faces behind the voices. Well done. Thanks for uploading.
Dang! This was so good! I've watched it twice. I saw him in the Bulls and Bears film (or whatever it was called) a couple of years ago. And so as soon as I saw this interview go up, I got a 12 pack of brew and partied!!! Long live Chat With Traders!
Great live interview. Keep up the good work. Thanks.
One of the best interviews with one of the best traders I've seen. A lot to learn from him. Thank you for sharing it.
Gr8 Work. Thx a Ton for the Post.
Great interview, great counsel and content. I like the "start organically" and don't force things too fast but focus on the long-run/term.
Great interview. The doc, Bulls and Bears, still one of my fav videos to watch. Very inspiring. Great job Aaron. Love your podcast. Keep up the inspirational work.
One of the best. Thanks Aaron, I wish I had been there.
Bulls and Bears is a excellent documentary saw it many years ago. Great getting John's insight (in this interview). Please get him back on!
Best interview ever.
Thanks for the words of wisdom Rambo, what a fresh, honest and no bull session of massive value. Cheers Aaron for making it happen 🤙. An awesome start to my almost blank canvas!
Thanks Aaron. Best episode ever.
I worked with John on the floor of SFE in the 90's
Great times buddy.
Aaron. You did it again. This was a great interview. John actually telling us what thoughts he had and why he was trading the way he was trading, is awesome. Do not fight the machines...become one with it. Risk...go for it.
Pure gold! It's like Market Wizards but filmed.
Thank You Arron For Publishing this Live Interview... This is priceless, the information about the bond and price curve relation is Fabulous !!!!! Thanks "Rambo".
Great interview! Thanks John for your insights.
Amazing, best one yet Aaron!
That was a fantastic interview. Great insights into the psychology of trading. Rambo has a very unique way not only looking at trading but life in general.
Awesome. That's the best interview I've seen so far from this channel.
Best interview I've seen so far.
Aaron, i just want to take the time to say thank you for this interview man! I remember John from the Bulls and Bear documentary and i would get completely baffled at the sheer size this guy would throw around those spread orders (He'd have days where he would trade like 13% of the entire market). His no bullshit approach of the market is absolute gold for any aspiring speculator. Thanks again.
THIS IS SO GOOD
Great one Aaron. I love this channel.
Every interview I watch I take away something new. Thanks!
what was the takeaway for you?
wowww.... Rambo makes me want to cry tears of joy. His words are so true and exactly what I needed to hear right now!
This was soooo fucking epic!!! Can't thank you enough Aaron. Cheers
Definitely one of my favorite interviews. This man words are ones every trader should ponder on regardless of where there at in there trading journey , will definitely be listing to again .Thanks for the great content .
GOODLUCK and Godspeed!
Great work Aaron, appreciate this
Loved this guy! An amazing personality... definitely something to learn as a trader
Good stuff here Arron! Dig the into to this one! Great speech too would have been killer to have been there in person!!
You can not love John, he's full of gems, I've taken so much from this.
such an experience trader, heard of him from trading psychology & came to this episode, so much gem! I enjoyed this episode so much!
Great interview, really enjoyed it. Keep it up!!
Cant get enough of this guy, John needs his own TV show or at least another documentary like his did in the 90's.
What a great interview! So many secrets to good trading revealed!
Great interview Aaron! Cheers from Brazil
Thank you!! Amazing video!!
Best so far. Real authentic jewels in this one.
This ladies and gentlemen is the "holy grail of trading". Never come across anyone who have hit it right at the core of what it's all about and what you need to embrace and become in order to truly make it in this arena!
came here to watch bulls and bears for the 10th time...found this interview...it is amazing that no one cared to interview this guy since the television series...what a missed opportunity. John's aged well in 20 years! good to know he still trades and survived the 08 financial crises.
John is big in every way. Big Personality, big voice, bets big, big man.
Another great interview!
This Interview is GOLD.
I've learned a lot from John. Thanks for uploading this.
Just Amazing. Great to hear more about the subconscious mind in trading, its much overlooked.
such a good fucking interview omg, this guys rawness is amazing
The most realistic trader out there and mad respect to him as hes spitting facts and experience. Rewatch it time to time to get more inspiration.
Rambo seems like a no nonsense guy ....that means he is a teddy bear covering his soft heart . Go Rambo we love ya man 🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
Great interview. Very valuable information thanks
Thank you Aaron and Rambo for an outstanding informative episode with Great topics (assuming risk vs Taking risk, learn how to lose, focus on the current trade not on the money)
So many psychological trading treasures! Priceless experience being shared.
Thanks bud. Very insightful.
Freakin legend, thank you for getting John to do this
Great interview, Thanks
Phenomenal interview
Wow
Job well done Aaron, cheers!
So refreshing. Today these interviews if any are saturated in cars and money. I like to know the history of this and the players in it so I sincerely enjoyed this. Cheers
Best stuff ever. Thanks.
this was amazing
Great stuff love it thanks Aaron
Awesome interview
How can anybody give it a thumbs down gonna watch it again
Perhaps it was a bit too much of a mirror to their trading?
Never expected things to get so 'spiritual' here but I love it
iv'e listened to the majority of CWT podcasts, this is i would have to say is the best
Legend! I love his no-bullshit honesty and detailed war stories. This is a great example of someone who breaks many trading "rules" but still became a success juggernaut, evidence that you have to experiment with everything and find what works for *you*. Phenomenal work as usual Aaron, really cool insights from this session. I'm glad I've studied Zen Buddhism longer than I've studied trading haha
i came here from your podcast, thanks man!
Simply GREAT !
awesome .. thanks for sharing
man this guy is fucking awesome
he's in a documentary from the 80's , this guy spits gold!
Awesome stuff as always 👍
Here's a guy I would really like to share a beer with and just talk to. Outstanding content, enlightening and humble.
Ah Rambo, greetings. Haven't seen you in 20 years.
Good to see you still firing on all fours
This guy got me into FUTURES after I watched him in a Doc.
Every time I make a losing trade I hear his voice telling me "Its just a fucking trade. I don't care." Lol Love this guy! Words to live by.
BEST TRADING INTERVIEW EVER
"I never thought I was the best...to me it was always the challenge of being the best" - amazing subtlety.
almost Lombardi-esque ...
Top draw!!! Thanks fella’s.
Rambo nailed it with the bartender story, every male in big cities (NY,Chicago) faces the same problem when being asked what do you do, a.k.a. how much do you make.
Wow tons of value. "Rambo" is an Absolute Alpha. Interesting perspective on life in general. Excellent episode. Thanks again Aaron! I wish I was there! My cousins live in Brisbane as well! I'm here in the States though.
Great interview mate
Great show! One of the few financial podcasts that doesn’t just slather the listener with shit.
Very straight forward and humble
Hands down the best trader out there. Rambo is my hero!
