Aussie Turtles Launch

December 2023



An evening with Jerry Parker, Moritz Seibert, Moritz Heiden, Adam Havryliv and Richard Brennan... with special guest, Michael Covel...

Imagine, if you will, a gathering of some of the world's most astute investors, united by a common thread in their investment approach. An approach that traces its roots back to the legendary Turtle Trading Experiment of the 1980s. Picture a scenario where these minds, steeped in the discipline and strategies of this iconic experiment, converge in one place. Well, imagine no more, for tonight, this vision becomes a reality.


We find ourselves in Sydney, the vibrant heart of Australia's financial world. Here, we're not just attendees at an event; we're part of a historical journey, revisiting and reviving the principles of the Turtle Traders.

Our journey takes us back to an audacious venture by Richard Dennis and Bill Eckhardt, two pioneering Chicago pit traders. Their experiment, a blend of mentorship, discipline, and systematic trading, wasn't just a financial venture; it was an exploration into the potential of the human spirit in the world of finance.


This evening, we are graced by the presence of Michael Covel, the celebrated author of “The Complete Turtle Trader,” ready to unveil the intricate layers of this fascinating story. Joining him is Jerry Parker, an original Turtle Trader, bringing his first-hand experiences and insights from the front lines of this financial odyssey. Complementing them are the new generation Turtles, Moritz Seibert and Moritz Heiden from Takahe Capital based in Germany, along with Australia's Adam Havryliv from East Coast Capital Management, each demonstrating how the Turtle principles continue to shape modern trading strategies.


Tonight is not just a nod to history; it's an enlightening exploration for the Australian investor into the power of the Turtle Trading method. This approach has shown remarkable resilience and success, adapting and thriving across varying market conditions.


Our event is made possible by the generous support of our sponsors. Australian Fund Monitors brings their deep understanding of the hedge fund sector, Australian Patent & Trademark Services, led by the renowned Alex Ferrante, ensures the protection of our intellectual property, and VAssist Me who transform our operational efficiency, allowing us to focus on our strategic objectives.
