Trend Following Trades During Volatile Market Conditions - October 2008
October 2008 provides a prime example of how we can produce gains in volatile and otherwise adverse market conditions. Trend following trader Bernard Drury started selling S&P 500 index futures short in November 2007. Paul Mulvaney, another trend following trader who has used a much longer timeframe in his trading, weekly bars, saw his fund post a 45.49% return for the month of October 2008.
