Trading the Trend (Collection)

Trade Everything

The thesis is simple:The world is chaotic.

What you trade is critical. It may just be the most important issue.

Here is the conundrum: You cannot trade everything, but you cannot trade only one market either. You need to be in a position to be following enough markets that when a market moves you can ride it, as diversification is the only free lunch you get. It allows you to spread your potential targets of opportunity broadly across currencies, interest rates, global stock indices, grains, softs (wheat, cotton, etc.), meats, metals, and energies.

In order for a trend trading strategy to be accepted it must trade all markets using the same rules. There should be excellent performance for the vast majority of markets.¹
