Details

Trading Regime Analysis is a groundbreaking work on how markets behave and how to profit from this behaviour. The book describes that it is the human nature of markets which explains why this behaviour exists and whether one believes in fundamental or technical market analysis, the ebb and flow of volatility is the one undeniable truth that exists in financial and commodity markets. It is the up and down cycles of volatility that is the manifestation of human psychology as the ultimate driver of markets and volatility, like human behaviour, has a distinct cycle to it.

Offers in detail the methods that can be used to identify whether a market is about to start trending or about to enter a period of range trading
Highlights important applications for this analysis for institutional investors, asset allocators, hedge fund managers and retail investors
Provides unique content as there are no existing titles on trading regime analysis
