Larry is so humble and generous. Always learned a lot from him. Thanks for the interview!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have such respect for Larry that it's hard to put into words. I met him at a seminar sponsored by Tradestation a long time ago. During a break I remained attentive, and happened to hear him step to the side to call his broker to buy a large batch of S&P contracts. Later in the day he sold them and made what I considered to be an absolute fortune that day, and yet he made no announcements about taking that trade and it was not part of the class. This is just what he does: a superb job of quietly plying the edge he has over markets as a result of his own original brilliant analysis. Soft-spoken and modest, to me Larry is the most brilliant trader I have ever encountered, and I have met quite a few rather famous traders and authors in my day. Anyone who has had the opportunity to learn from Larry Williams or to meet him personally is very lucky, indeed.
Mr Larry williams is my favorite investor/trader because he tells you specifically how to make money. Not just vague quotes and words
It's awesome to see Larry still at it. My late father, who was a commodity futures trader back then as well and wrote a series of Almanacs twice a year, used to talk about Larry and a few others with great regard. He's a true legend.
1000%
I just died laughing when Larry said because he is an old man he only risks 40% of his account per trade LOL
Lol!
Lol same
@@nicholasanderson9019 😂
Surely Larry meant 4% per trade.
He actually would risk that much in the past if you read between the lines. That’s how he got into drawdowns. You can’t turn $1000 into 2 million in one year risking 1-2% of your account. Every exceptional trader I studied had one thing in common. They don’t follow the 1% risk per trade idea
I could listen to Larry talk all day. I've been trading full time for 3 decades, and Larry was a great inspiration to me.
so so pleased for your success!
i WISH MY KIDS WOULD LISTEN!!
@@blazetrader I created a playlist of your videos that I listen to. It is a wealth of information with a very holistic approach. I lost many years not having a good mentor. I wish I had known you earlier
@@ananthasusairaj330 life goes on so just stay the course with my best wishes
Yeah he was one of the 1st trading experts that I ran into and started learning from back in the 90's as well. I gotta say I don't always agree with him but i still respect his opinion
Can you imagine how cool it would be to have him as your grandpa? I'd visit every day to learn about the markets while drinking tea lol! Thanks for the great video.
For sure!
May be our grandchildren would also expect the same.
I would love to be that cool grandpa someday lol
Well, he is Matilda Ledger's grandpa.
Larry Williams is such a fantastic guy! I went to one of his seminars outside of Chicago 20 years ago. He has the same enthusiasm for the markets now that he did then.
Definitely!!
I became a profitable trader using Larry’s strategy based on the COT report. Thank you Larry for all your work.
Good to hear!
Thank-you Larry for verbal gold . Richard you are the best.I said it when you started your youtube channel and ill repeat it now again . Nobody can do what you do , allowing the guest to run the show under your stealth guidance . Brilliant interview.
thanks!
Larry!! One of the best traders of all time... you have an open mind for trading strategies... and always amazes me with his experience and wisdom!!!!
I never get tired of listening and learning from Larry.
Such a fantastic guy! It's a pitty I never had a chance to be his student and now he's retired!
Amazing interview!
Larry is awesome!
Very lucky to have this interview. Thanks a lot. Larry is the best.
1000%!
Fantastic Interview, learned valuable lessons, Thank you Richard for bring Larry to the show.
What a terrific interview with the legendary Larry Williams! Thanks to the awesome advice. And Richard did a great job in hosting the show.
Thank you!
Great talk. Thanks Richard. You're an excellent interviewer.
I appreciate that! thanks mike
The chart comparison thing is really cool. Thanks for the great interview. Keep up the good work.
Great Video Richard. Timeless insights and advice from Larry. I wanted to request if you can do an interview with Larry on COT data to get little bit more insights with respect to commodities and equities
I met Larry back in 1994. Still have his book "Batting 800" from way back when. What a wonderful mentor.
...also attended all of his "Inner Circle Workshops"
@@shahidmahboob3152 Intriguing

Love the way this living legend talks the walks, walks the talks all his life.
Absolutely!
Another great interview. Larry is an incredible person and his life is even more interesting than his trading career. I used to like running into him at the local bagel shop 30 years ago.
Larry was great!
Larry had the highest return ever in the US Trading Championship
Thanks Richard for this great talk with this titan !!!
For me playing poker is a good way to understand and
feel risk management.
Perfect!
Good interview , good questions , and such a pleasant guy Larry to listen to
1000%
Great info from Larry. Excellent interview.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for presenting veterans, it is invaluable.👍👍👍
Our pleasure!
Thank you for bringing all the legends back!
Absolutely! Our pleasure.
Thanks for watching Kai! Larry Williams was awesome.
the most impressive tidbit in this interview (and there were many) is that Larry competes in high jump
Excellent interview. Thanks.
iam a big, big fan of you Larry. I have been trading using a lot of techniques like fibo, support and resistant, overbalance etc... but your way of trading the best suits me - thanka you, thank you, thank you :)
One of the very best interviews on Larry Williams I have ever seen ✅
Thanks!
What a terrific interview. Larry Williams is such a down to earth and interesting man. Wow. One of your best, Richard!
Thanks!
I started as mechanical and is the first time I hear that discretionary makes more money and it does make a lot of sense. Best tf systems i was able to backtest were making 20% a year. Volume analysis along with patterns are hard to tell in an automated way.
Almost 40 years ago, when I was a medical student in Chicago, I was introduced to Charlie D. I had not heard him mentioned again since until recent weeks, when he was mentioned on this and another TH-cam video which I stumbled upon.
I have to admit I haven’t seen your other videos but Larry Williams is arguably one of the best traders of all time. Congrats getting him on your show. Definitely subscribed now.
Are you aware that the 1987 11,000% win was a fraud? If you were not aware you can watch the video details on it and there's an entire book written about it
@@VinnyEmini what the book called? I am interesting in reading it
Excellent Video, there should be a Top 4 or 5 Bullet points the interview learned he thinks were the most important answers his guest talked about
This interview is packed with valuable information. I learned a lot about Larry Williams' trading methods, and I'm definitely going to implement some of them in my own trading. Thank you :)
Great to hear!
Great channel which shares thoughts of great traders and investors.
Thank you!
Great wisdom. I seen Larry in a seminar in Vegas in 98.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Richard and to Larry for making this video for us, many wise words in this podcast for us , keep up the great work you are doing to help traders become successful.
Thanks for watching!
This was so good. Thanks to both of you!!!
Thanks for watching!
Great interview! Thanks Richard
Thanks!! 💯
Richard, I always wonder if these percentage profits are based off of thei capital or capital invested or just the percentage profit booked booked on each trade? These numbers are huge.
Thank you so much. Such a humble guys
Larry was awesome!
FANTASTIC INTERVIEW. Just about anything Id want to ask larry. thank you. side note, man DANGGG 30% risk per trade that is bananas
Agreed haha.
Absolutely superb, excellent throughout and the last few minutes really highlight the focus and discipline the great traders need to become great. Up to now I’d only heard of pork bellies in the movie Trading Places. 5 ⭐️ interview. 👊
Thanks Tony!

Great interview! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Started out slowly, but there was some really good information in this interview thank you 😁😁😁
Glad it was helpful!
This channel is a Gem. It should have a lot more subscribers but that shows you the general state of things…Solid channel with top notch content vs Lambo Crypto moon boys…it’s human nature I suppose to settle for the lowest common denominator…lazy brains…still I suppose that’s the 95% that try and fail…Good work Richard…keep up educating the rest of us👏
Thanks Chris!
Fruitful learning from Larry sir 👍

Very interesting talk.
Larry has a unique ability to teach well.. I wish I heard he made 11,000% more times than just in the 80s..
Wisdom. Thank you
Another intriguing interview! Love it!
Thanks!!
So many nuggets of wisdom here, pay attention!!
Glad you found it insightful! Thanks for watching!
Very wise, practical sharing, Larry!:-)
Thanks for watching!
Wow, learned a lot. Really grandfatherly advice.
And i must commend the way you ask questions, just enough to provide context but not too long that after such a long question you forgot already what was the question.
Thank you!
"How do you identify that pivotal point?"
"I drink a lot." 😂
hahaha
Larry rocks !!!
Great talk! what books is he reffering when he talks about money managment?
anything by ralph vince
This dude is incredible man, love his mindset
Glad you enjoyed it!
Richard your interviews are great. I see only one episode in podcast platform. It will be great if all episode of TH-cam podcast are available in podcast platform.
We’ve uploaded all the podcasts
Gems on this interview: there must be a trend to make money; let it enough time to ride that trend (timeframe of the trend is based on your system)
Thanks for watching!
Amazing interview
Thanks!!
nicely put,.. thanks u
Welcome!
LARRY ###### WILLIAMS!!!!. Richy boy, another home run 👍.
Thank you!
20:30 Important point
Definitely!
Reminds me of Buffett. Great interview.
Absolutely!
I mean this guy have a Lot of experience thanks for this bro
Our pleasure!
Great Interview, I am up 650% since March risking 25% on every trade, I just learned that it all has to do with my risk percentage .
How much leverage you are using?
@@nightowl2928 I don't use margin, I use Optons to express my trade ideas which gives me more leverage
@@bensuly1881 This will work great until a 2000-2002 era hits. Which eventually it will someday.
@@thisguy73 totally agree, you should always use progressive exposure and finance your next trades from the current profits, not going all in!
@@thisguy73 1000% correct.
Superb
Thanks 👍
Happy to share!
Gold - well done
Thanks!
For sure.
best interview 🎉 thanku so much larry and richard🏅 . one day me also win robin cup then i post this comment on my twitter 😉😉
Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Is that supertrend indicator?
So what are the indicators he's touting? Proprietary?
What is your favorite/best indicator that for showing accumulation, overbought/oversold, momentum, and pattern of market?
POIV for futures PROGO for stocks or OBV
Very interesting video
Glad you think so!
Are you guys still uploading to Spotify?
Yes we will be, this week.
LARRY!!!!
Gold
The red trend following indicator on his charts… what was that called or was that his proprietary creation?
It was proprietary I believe
That was amazing. TraderLion, can you please find out what indicator that was?
yes his indicators seem really unique and useful. shame they are proprietary
What are Larry's recent annual returns?
The biggest take away between 50:00 to 50:30
He is father of rsi macd Ema
I remember he called the bottom during the covid dip.
Absolutely!
Omg 10k to 2 million in 10 months 🙀
Trend is the only way to make money. No trend ,no money. Small postion to catch a big trend.
Right on!
Incredible veteran. But he is the first trader TL interviewed, whom I can’t follow the strategy. The risk is too big for me to swallow. Oh well..
Another interesting factor is he studied volume in 1970s. But with the printing of money nowadays and the huge inflow of liquidity in the market, it might be different now
