About this title

Synopsis

The first and only professional guide that tackles the impermanence and built–in obsolescence of most trading systems

Most books about trading systems explain how to develop one particular system, then use it over and over and over again. Which would be fine if the markets didn′t move and investment preferences stayed static. Fortunately, Campaign Trading is designed for the real world of trading, where what counts is winning the trading war, not just the individual battles. This book carefully shows futures, options, stock, and bond traders how to create a profitable campaign that works for a specific financial instrument, under certain circumstances, for a limited period of time. Then, instead of blindly staying with the system, the user learns to redevelop and adapt it for the next set of financial circumstances. Because the program is constantly adjusted to meet market changes, obsolescence is avoided and the overall trading campaign remains fresh, flexible, and even more profitable.
