I am doing trend following from almost a year now but I never read a single book on Trend following until last week.
Whatever fundas or systems I m using all are mentioned in this book.

Few important points from the book :
1. Your entry should be based on your predefined rules.
if you don& #39;t have rules don& #39;t trade.

2. There is no target in Trend following. the only Exit is stop loss or trail stop loss.
(Personally, I don& #39;t follow trailing stop loss. I am an intraday trader )

3. Backtest and stress test your results. if something is profitable at 930 entry that must also be profitable at 940 entry.
if it& #39;s profitable at 10% SL it should also be profitable at 12% SL and so on.

4. Be diversified. What worked in the past may not work in the future. So be future-ready.
(There is a 50% difference in return in my best scheme and in my worst scheme. But I run both bcoz I never know when the best will become worst and the worst will become best)

5. Don& #39;t predict markets.
No one can predict a market trend, you can only react to one. Trend following never anticipates the beginning or end of a trend. It only acts when the trend changes. There is no need to figure out why a market is trending, just follow it.
