My name in Andrew Abraham. I have been investing in commodities and managed futures since 1994. I adhere to the philosophy of trend following.
Trend following stresses a disciplined approach to commodity/ futures trading. Successful trend following and commodity futures investing requires patience, discipline and actively managing the risk. What sets me apart from other traders is that I am not only concerned about the return on investment but how much risk I will have to tolerate to achieve my goals.
Commodity Trend Following
The basis of many successful trend followers are buy strength and sell weakness. This is the basis of our commodity trading at Angus Jackson Partners. We don’t simply buy. We use multiple systems for entries and focus on the risk. We do not risk more than 1% risk per trade..many are less…as well we do not load up the boat in any particular sector as well as monitor our open trade equity risk.
For this week…this is the short list for commodities. Some of these trades we have been in for some time…others have too much risk for us to trade…these are based on rate of change as well as relative strength. Trading in this fashion helps us focus our energies to what is trending. Below are the most trending commodity markets out of 80+ markets we monitor. Once a week we update the markets. All are based on Trend following.
