For their 20th anniversary edition, Traders’ magazine invited us for an interview to speak about the 2Q Portfolio and our quantitative approach to trading. The interview is in German. Recorded on November 18, 2021.
Quantitative traders Moritz Heiden and Moritz Seibert, chief technology officer and chief investment officer, respectively, at the Exponential Age Digital Asset Management Fund, developed the Bot to help Real Vision better understand market sentiment by studying topics covered and emotions expressed in video interviews on our platform. This research project has grown to [...]
We're incredibly sad to hear of Dr. Tharp's passing. I believe Van’s books on trading and trading psychology rank among the best trading books ever written. They are immensely valuable for traders, both novice and experienced, and have shaped the way we manage our own portfolios today. His magnificent work, his books, and his courses will be [...]
Michael Covel, author of the best-selling Trend Following trading books and host of the popular Trend Following Radio podcast invited me to his show to talk about all things trading. It’s been a fun conversation!
We’ve reached the end of an intense and super-exciting year. This is a good time to share some stories, update you on the performance of our 2Q Portfolio, and discuss some interesting positions and trade ideas.

It’s been a while since we published the last update on our 2Q Portfolio. While we update the live performance numbers each week on our website here, we don’t usually release details on the 2Q Portfolio’s positioning or its return drivers. But, with the third quarter now behind us, we reckon it’s about time [...]
Thus far 2021 has been a great year for systematic trend following traders. Although there's been some PL giveback in the past two months, the SG Trend Index (Bloomberg: NEIXCTAT Index) has managed to make a new all time high in June (see chart below). Many of the markets traded by CTAs have also [...]
