The Way of the Turtle
by Curtis M. Faith
Discover the legendary trading experiment that transformed ordinary people into elite traders
Nearly 25 years ago, trading expert Richard Dennis told his long-time friend William Eckhardt, “We’re going to raise traders just like they raise turtles in Singapore.” What began as a debate over whether great traders are born or made evolved into a famous experiment—one that, until now, has never been fully revealed.
Way of the Turtle uncovers the secrets behind the success of the “Turtles,” a group of traders trained under Dennis and Eckhardt’s guidance. Curtis Faith, the highest-earning Turtle, recounts how 23 individuals from diverse backgrounds were transformed into skilled traders in just two weeks.
At only 19, Faith managed the largest Turtle account, earning more than $30 million over four years. He provides an insider’s perspective on the selection process, the training, and the strategies that led to average annual returns exceeding 80 percent, with total profits surpassing $100 million.
Readers will learn:
- How the Turtles made money—the principles that governed their trading and the step-by-step methods they applied
- Why results varied among Turtles despite following the same system
- How to extract core strategies from the Turtle rules that can be applied to any market
- How to implement the Turtle Way in your own trading and life
- Methods for diversifying trades and managing risk
Faith also explains why the Turtle approach remains effective in today’s markets, offering insights on risk-taking, choosing your own path, and learning from mistakes.
