Trend Plus

Sub Index - Trend Plus

Funds in this space typically blend price momentum models (less than 60-70% of risk) with other strategies that exploit technical and fundamental factors to improve predictability and portfolio diversification. Holding periods are generally shorter than momentum with managers incrementally using alternative data and pattern recognition techniques. A number of high-profile CTA firms now belong to this camp, and in many ways they have evolved their trend strategies to such an extent (by introducing complementary alpha strategies such as quantitative macro, cash equities market neutral, carry, etc) that they are perhaps best described as quantitative multi-strategy rather than trend followers.
