Managing the Risks when Trend Trading
The most important issue in systematic trading is not the indicators or entry/ exit system. The most important issue for systematic trading and algorithmic trend following is managing the risks. If you do not manage the risks properly, I promise you will have a draw down greater than you can tolerate. In my courses I teach you exactly how to manage the risks when systematic trading. There will always be losses when trend following. The goal is to “Try” to keep losses small. The only certainty is uncertainty. There can be gaps when trend following as well as limit moves in which you can not exit and experience greater losses.

Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance. The risk of loss in trading futures contracts, commodity options or forex can be substantial, and therefore investors should understand the risks involved in taking leveraged positions and must assume responsibility for the risks associated with such investments and for their results. You should carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources.HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW.
