The common thought is that everyone lost money last year as in every Stock Market Bear Market. Well happily to tell you, this is not the case. Numerous trend following commodity trading advisors had great years. To give one even more confidence in the strategy is the 2008 Bear Market is not an outside event. Again numerous trend following commodity trading advisors made money in the bear market of 200-2002 …as well as even in 1987. I will give you some examples of some of the commodity trading advisors that I have money as well as others.
Trend Following Commodity Trading Advisors 2008
Robinson Langley 30.65%
Tactical- David Druz 48.35%
Abraham Trading 28.77%
Accela 16.48%
Argus 45.44%
Beach Horizon 59.82%
Blackwater Global 55.90%
Blue trend portfolio 43.34%
Clarke Capital Worldwide 62.90%
I can post the same not just for stock market crashes..crisiss … 1987..1998 ( Asian Categion)..Gulf War1..Gulf war 2… Enron.. Barings… Whenever there is a crisis…there are oppurtunities. Investing as a trend follower or investing in a commodity trading advisor is not about these great returns. It is more about staying in the game …being patient…having the discipline to go through a long draw down.
Take a look as an example of Clarke Capital. There were 2 years back to back with losses…unfortunately investors gave up just before a massive move over 2 consecutive years..
Nothing comes without risk. Those who tried to avoid risk as in the case of Madoff learned everything has risks. When one considers a portfolio of trend following commodity trading advisors they stand the possibility of smoothing out their overall performance.
If you want to be a long time financial winner. Have patience and discipline… allocate less than 5% of your net worth to any idea and you stand the potential of compounding your way to long term wealth.
