From a leading trading systems developer, how to make profitable
trades when there are no obvious trends
How does a trader find alpha when markets make no sense, when
price shocks cause diversification to fail, and when it seems
impossible to hedge? What strategies should traders, long
conditioned to trend trading, deploy? In Alpha Trading:
Profitable Strategies That Remove Directional Risk, author
Perry Kaufman presents strategies and systems for profitably
trading in directionless markets and in those experiencing constant
price shocks. The book
* Details how to exploit new highs and lows
* Describes how to hedge primary risk components, find
robustness, and craft a diversification program
* Other titles by Kaufman: New Trading Systems and Methods,
4th Edition and A Short Course in Technical Trading,
both by Wiley
Given Kaufman's 30 years of experience trading in almost every
kind of market, his Alpha Trading will be a welcome addition
to the trading literature of professional and serious individual
traders for years to come.
