Gary Antonacci
Gary Antonacci

My guest today is Gary Antonacci. Antonacci focuses on two issues in the quant world: relative strength price momentum with trend following absolute momentum. He’s developed a strategy where he believes it’s best to combine both.

The topic is his book Dual Momentum Investing: An Innovative Strategy for Higher Returns with Lower Risk.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Momentum vs. trend
  • Relative strength momentum, cross sectional momentum, absolute momentum, and time series momentum
  • Trend following vs. managed futures as terms
  • Antonacci’s early history and how he found his way into the career he has today
  • Three legendary traders that crossed paths with Antonacci early on
  • The efficient market hypothesis as a less-than-solid foundation
  • Buying higher highs
  • Ray Dalio and risk parity strategies
  • Academic perspectives on momentum
  • The interaction and correlation between the two momentum strategies (relative and absolute)
