Profiting with Trend Following™

Discover how new traders, pros, & college students are all using trend following for the chance at big returns—the compounded absolute returns that make a rich life. Forget buy & hold (hope), government promises & nonstop daily predictions. Picture: Michael Covel, Ed Seykota, Larry Hite.

Massive Returns — Compounded

  • Totally systematic trend following trading targets one objective: outsized performance returns — compounded. Trend trading is for everyone who still wants the chance to get rich. Review winners.
  • Our 15 years of exceptional research outlines the path to immense returns with extreme confidence. You will learn the exact rules, philosophies and psychology behind trend trading's 50 years of massive performance in stocks, futures, commodities, ETFs and FX. Review success stories.
  • Join an exclusive group of traders: New traders to college students to pro fund traders — all train here for unparalleled moneymaking guidance. Clients in 70+ countries.
  • Forget day trading, fundamental analysis, value investing or buy and hope. Predictions, CNBC and daily headlines — stop. That is not part of generating profits with technical trend following.
  • Is trend following for everyone? No. If you are nervous, scared, lack confidence, quit regularly or just want an average life — this is not for you. You can always buy a mutual fund and say a prayer.

Trend Following Hall of Fame

  • Bruce Kovner: Kovner is a trend following trader featured in Jack Schwager's 'Market Wizards.' He was trained by trend follower Michael Marcus. Marcus was trained by Ed Seykota. More on Seykota can be found in Trend Following. Kovner is worth over $3.5 billion (source).
  • John W. Henry: Henry is a trend following trader featured in Trend Following and Trend Commandments. He is worth $840 million (source). He used his trend following gains to buy the Boston Red Sox for $700 million.
  • Bill Dunn: Dunn is a trend following trader featured in Trend Following and Trend Commandments. Dunn made $80 million in 2008 when the rest of the world was blowing up.
  • Michael Marcus: Marcus is a trend following trader featured in Jack Schwager's 'Market Wizards.' He turned an initial $30,000 into $80 million (source).
  • David Harding: Harding is a trend following trader featured in Trend Following and The Little Book of Trading. He is worth over $670 million (more).
  • Ed Seykota: Seykota is a trend following trader featured in Trend Following and The Little Book of Trading. He turned $5,000 into $15 million over 12 years in his model account (an actual client account).
  • Kenneth Tropin: Trend following trader Tropin made $120 million in 2008 as buy and hold collapsed.
  • No one can promise that you will become legend-like or produce these returns, but their performance is a historical marker on file with the U.S. government that every investor should understand. It is proof that trend following works. Bottom line, these trend followers all started as one-man shops and that is inspirational. More performance inspiration.
